West Indies failed to make adjustments ...

But Bangladesh adjusted whenever it was necessary:

In our bowling: Romario Shephard, Alizari Joseph and Gudakesh Motie all

failed to adjust line length & or pace to try to induce batting errors.

In Romario's case, the Bangladeshi batsman kept moving across his wicket

to heave him to leg. And Romario just kept trying to bowl wider. As if he

could not use this predictable technique to his own advantage.

Juxtapose that to when Johnson Charles was batting, he was moving towards square leg

to free his arms to the offside. But he lost his wicket, when the bowler adjusted and cramped him

for room.

Additionally West Indies kept taking singles - off the last ball to put Romario Sheperd and the Alizari

Josephs on strike instead of having Rovman Powell take strike.

When West Indies were CERTAIN of victory ... Romario Shep

picked out the lone fielder on the long-on boundary, precisely.

No, we lost when Shep and Motie bowled 4 overs for 48 runs between them. In a low scoring match, giving away runs will always come back to haunt you

We are making the same point.

Motie never adjusted to try to deceive the batsman, after the first six.

Shep, didn't figure out that he could use the batsman's movement - to get him bowled or LBW.

The umpires screwed West Indies all game.

They reversed every debatable wicket we got ...

To top it off they allowed the fast bowler to bowl

outside of the wide line to Rovman Powell, thus forcing

him to chase the second wide ball.

How many balls did he bowl in de match after the 1st 6 ????

Gudakesh Motie

10.6
Motie to Jaker Ali, 1 run, fullish delivery, Jaker clips it to deep square leg
10.5
Motie to Soumya Sarkar, 1 run, quicker delivery, Soumya cuts to deep point
10.4
Motie to Soumya Sarkar, SIX, and again! Motie changing the angle to round the wicket and tries to fire it wide of off but it is still within Soumya's reach and he thumps it down the ground over long-on
10.3
Motie to Soumya Sarkar, SIX, oh slot and powered over mid-wicket. Full and on the stumps, easily hit over mid-wicket
10.2
Motie to Jaker Ali, 1 run, bit quicker this time, Jaker hits it firmly to long-off. Was uppish but wide of the bowler
10.1
Motie to Jaker Ali, no run, shortish delivery outside off stump, Jaker punches it to the left of the bowler

Match was lost by a top order not able to bat spin then Sammy and Powell sending in 2 low order lefties to 'protect' a genuine all-rounder who if facing more balls could take on the spinner and ease the pressure
