WI vs BAN Head to Head Records- 1st Test, Bangladesh tour of West Indies 2024

The West Indies will host Bangladesh in a two match Test series which will commence on November 22 in Antigua and both teams will be hungry to turn their fortunes around.

The Windies have not been the same since their win in Gabba against Australia in January, which was powered by Shamar Joseph's amazing bowling. But since then, things haven't gone their way, with England sweeping them 3-0 and South Africa handing them another tough defeat.

Bangladesh has had its ups and downs too. They pulled off a huge upset by beating Pakistan 2-0 in the Test series and showed they can compete with the big boys. But losses to India and South Africa brought them back down to earth.

These two teams last met on the Test field in June 2022 where the West Indies came out on top with a clean 2-0 sweep.
