World Cup 2019, Bangladesh vs West Indies

West Indies vs Bangladesh, WI vs Ban Highlights: Bangladesh chased down 322 in just 41.3 overs with seven wickets in hand to beat West Indies at Taunton.



Taunton: Bangladesh powered to the second highest run chase in World Cup history as Shakib Al Hasan's brilliant century clinched a remarkable seven-wicket win over the West Indies on Monday.

Shakib blasted 124 from 99 balls and Liton Das hit a superb 94 from 69 deliveries to lead Bangladesh to 322-3 with 8.3 overs to spare at Taunton.

West Indies vs Bangladesh, WI vs Ban Highlights: Sensational century by Shakib Al Hasan and a clinical Liton Das helped Bangladesh chase down a massive 322 as Bangladesh thrashed West Indies by seven-wicket in the World Cup clash at Taunton on Monday. 

This was the second highest chase by a team in the World Cup history. While Hasan scored an unbeaten 124, Das remained not out after scoring 94. This was Hasan’s second century of the tournament.



Earlier, fighting knocks by Shai Hope and Evin Lewis followed by a fiery cameo from Shimron Hetmyer powered West Indies to a massive 321/8. Hope missed his ton by a whisker and got out for 96 while Lewis added 70 off 67 deliveries. Hetmyer unleashed a blistering knock and scored 50 off just 26 deliveries to keep West Indies going. 

But Bangladesh batsmen held their nerves and displayed great determination to go past West Indies total with eight overs to spare.

After reaching his fifth successive ODI 50, Shakib — who scored 121 against England earlier in the tournament — took command with a scintillating innings that climaxed when he stroked a boundary to reach his century.

Shakib is now the highest run scorer at this year's World Cup so far and the West Indies were helpless as he and Das demolished their wayward bowling to romp hom
