St George's (Grenada), July 16 (AFP) Bangladesh will carry bitter-sweet feelings into the second and final Test against the West Indies starting tomorrow at the Queen's Park Stadium Complex.
Bangladesh need only to draw to fulfill a long-held dream of their first Test series victory after they took a 1-0 lead with a 95-run victory in the opening Test at St Vincent.
But celebrations have been tempered following a knee injury to their new captain Mashrafe Mortaza which appears likely to sideline him for the match.
Mortaza fell clumsily on his right knee when bowling during the first Test, and spent the last two and a half days off the field.
He underwent a medical scan on Tuesday, and though the results of the test are not as bad as initially feared, the visitors do not want to risk long-term injury to their main fast bowler.
