Bangladesh will be eyeing a series-clinching win when they take on West Indies in the second T20I of the ongoing three-match series. The penultimate game of the series is scheduled to be played at the Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent.
The tourists are leading the series after registering a thrilling 7-run win in the first T20I. It was a low-scoring game and Bangladesh managed to stun the two-time T20 World Cup champions. Batting first, Bangladesh scored 147/6 in the allotted 20 overs.
In reply, West Indies were reeling at 61/7 at one stage before a 60-run knock from captain Rovman Powell revived their chances. However, they eventually fell short by seven runs and were all out for 140.
With both the teams now desperately eyeing a victory in the upcoming game, here are all the predictions for the second WI vs BAN T20I.

WI vs BAN Key Factors
Pitch Conditions
The second West Indies vs Bangladesh T20I will also be played at the Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent. The venue hosted the first game as well and just like the series-opener, the second game is also unlikely to witness a high-scoring game.
The venue is not known for producing high-scoring games and there were not too many surprises during the first T20I. Most of the batsmen struggled to get going in tough conditions and will be eyeing a better show in the upcoming game. Anything above 150 is likely to be a winning total on the surface.
Form and Fitness
There are no injury concerns for any of the two teams at present.

Conclusion – Who will win the Match?
Even though Bangladesh won the first game, West Indies will start the game as favourites and are expected to it. West Indies, however, will have to be at their best to beat Bangladesh in conditions that will not support their batsmen’s usual big-hitting skills. Bangladesh, on the other hand, will be looking to stun their fancied hosts once again.
