Bangladesh v West Indies, 2012-13

Utpal Shuvro

At Mirpur, December 5, 2012 (day/night). Third one-day international: West Indies won by four wickets. One-day international debut: V. Permaul (West Indies).

West Indies kept the series alive after including slow left-armer Veerasammy Permaul to bolster their spin attack. Tamim Iqbal and Anamul Haque gave Bangladesh a good start with a stand of 57, but then Narine struck twice in the 13th over. Mahmudullah supervised a recovery from 110 for 5, but West Indies were always in charge of the chase, after Samuels - who countered the spinners well with some nimble footwork during his fourth one-day hundred - dominated a second-wicket stand of 111 with Powell.

Man of the Match: M. N. Samuels.
