A second-wicket stand of 95 between Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Devon Smith and then some late fireworks by Marlon Samuels and Dwayne Smith propelled West Indies to 164 for 8 against Bangladesh in Johannesburg. Put in to bat on a damp pitch, the batsmen gave their bowlers a competitive score to defend in their quest to stay alive in the competition.
A disciplined opening spell by Syed Rasel kept West Indies on a tight leash as he conceded just 10 runs off his four overs. Following his blistering ton against South Africa at the same venue on Tuesday, Chris Gayle's fortunes took an about-turn as he was sent packing by Rasel without scoring off the third ball of the match. A ferocious slash outside the off stump was taken by Alok Kapali at point and Bangladesh got the scalp they wanted.
With wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim standing to the stumps, Rasel kept the batsmen in check with his tight line, aimed at the stumps, giving Chanderpaul and Devon Smith very little room to cut or pull. He however, didn't quite get enough support at the other end as Mohammad Ashraful kept rotating his bowlers. Curiously, on a damp pitch, left-arm spinner Abdur Razzak was brought on as early as the second over and the move backfired as he leaked 12 off it, in the process conceding the first six of the match.
Mashrafe Mortaza replaced Razzak and didn't make things any better for his captain as he sent down three consecutive wides. He also erred in pitching it too short, allowing Devon Smith to go back and across and pull with ease past midwicket and cut past point.
Chanderpaul grew in confidence once the third seamer Farhad Reza came on. Length deliveries were given the right treatment as Chanderpaul walked across his stumps and executed the pick-up stroke, scooping deliveries from outside the off stump over deep square leg. Devon Smith then executed a front-foot thump past Reza which nearly cleaned up the umpire. The intent of that stroke was indicative of West Indies' recovery after Gayle departed.
However, the re-introduction of Razzak pegged West Indies back as he sent back Devon Smith and Chanderpaul in quick succession. Chanderpaul holed out to Mortaza at long-on and Devon Smith, on 51, was beaten by a quicker one after stepping down the track.
Marlon Samuels, batting with an injured ankle, hardly needed any assistance from his runner as he treated himself to a slog fest when Ashraful brought himself on. A six over deep midwicket was followed by another one over the bowler's head and then a four over deep extra cover. A full-blooded cover drive was taken by Shakib Al Hasan but that didn't bring any respite for Bangladesh as it brought Dwayne Smith to the crease.
Dwayne Smith then launched into Ashraful, smashing three consecutive sixes and a four. The over was worth a whopping 24. Shakib picked up three easy wickets in the final over as West Indies went for the runs. However, the total of 164 should pose a challenge to Bangladesh.
