Bangladesh moved up to the second position behind Australia in the World Cup Super League standings, following their 3-0 series sweep over West Indies.
After winning the first two matches by six and seven wickets respectively, Bangladesh crushed West Indies by 120 runs in the third and final ODI at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram.
By winning all these three matches, Bangladesh amassed 30 points, the same as England but they leapfrogged them in terms of net-run-rate. Australia is in the top with 40 points.
The series against West Indies however, was Bangladesh’s first series in the ICC World Cup Super League. They will play seven more series ahead of the 2023 World Cup at home and away.
Dhaka [Bangladesh], January 23 (ANI): Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan said that hosts are unlikely to make any changes for the third ODI against West Indies despite having an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
Those results have given Bangladesh a head start in the ICC World Cup Super League, and they are currently third on the table behind Australia and England. The top eight teams (including hosts India) will gain direct entry to the 2023 World Cup, while the bottom five will have to play in a qualifying event in Zimbabwe along with teams from the lower divisions of the qualification pathway.
