Bangladesh enters the two‑Test series against the West Indies with a clear objective: to rise in the World Test Championship table. After a mixed campaign that includes a 1‑1 draw with Australia and a 2‑0 home series win over Pakistan, Bangladesh sits fourth among the nine teams, holding three wins, two losses and one draw in the current cycle. The series, scheduled for October 28‑November 1 in Mirpur and November 5‑9 in Sylhet, offers a chance to add valuable points. The West Indies, currently eighth, have recorded two wins, eight defeats and two draws in 12 matches this cycle. Both teams will be keen to secure results that could shift the balance as the championship moves toward its next phase.
