West Indies completed their series sweep by easing to a victory against Bangladesh in the second Test at the Darren Sammy International Stadium in St Lucia.


The men in maroon only required 13 runs to chase down on day 4 of the Test thanks to a fine job done by the West Indian pace attack with Kemar Roach, Alzarri Joseph and Jayden Seales all taking 3 wickets. Bangladesh were bowled out for 186 runs in the second innings, with only wicketkeeper Nurul Hasan standing tall with a 60 not out.
