Tri-Series final: Tigers to face Windies in afternoon

DHAKA: Unbeaten Bangladesh, who topped in the league stage point table, will face West Indies in Tri-Series One-Day International final in Ireland on Friday (May 17) afternoon.
    
The match is scheduled to begin at the Village of Malahide around 3:45 pm. 

Bangladesh have been in tension over the fitness of Shakib Al Hasan ahead of their tri-series.

Star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is likely to miss the final match of Tri nation Series.

 "Shakib sustained a left-sided back muscle spasm injury while batting during the match against Ireland," Bangladesh team physiotherapist Thihan Chandramohan said.

"He is undergoing assessment and treatment and we will make a decision regarding his availability for tomorrow's tri-series final on the morning of the match," he added.

A back injury has kept John Campbell away from the action since his 179 against Ireland in the series opener. West Indies are likely to bring back Shannon Gabriel in place of Raymon Reifer.

Bangladesh secured three wins from four games while Caribbean side suffered two losses against Bangladesh in the league stage. 

West Indies XI (probable)

Sunil Ambris, Shai Hope (wk), Darren Bravo, Roston Chase,  Jonathan Carter, Jason Holder (capt), Fabian Allen, Ashley Nurse, Kemar Roach,  Sheldon Cottrell and Shannon Gabriel

Bangladesh XI (probable)

Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Liton Das/Shakib Al Hasan,  Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Sabbir Rahman, Mohamad Saifuddin, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mashrafe Mortaza (capt), Mustafizur Rahman
