BD haven't won a Test in West Indies since 2009. They won 2-0 in 2009 against a depleted West Indian side.

I think Rana will be a permanent member in the playing XI going forward. That would mean leaving out Taijul or Shoriful. Both good as well.

This BD win means Windies need to win 2-0 against Pakistan if they want to avoid finishing last in WTC.
Pakistan can do a favor to BD by beating West Indies.

It is up to cricket boards. But looking at the crowd it is one test too many.

It is a lengthy tour. No space for a 3rd Test I guess. There are 3 ODIs and 3 T20s also.

May sound surprising but Test cricket you cant really base it on crowds, as reality is test cricket wont bring much crowd at all for most matches, which needs to be accepted.
Rather it needs to be based on a fair WTC cycle where everyone plays everyone, 3-match series only, 24 matches for everyone.
But again I am not all familiar with the money, profit side of cricket and ICC.

BD made a blunder by not playing Nahid in 1st Test. They could've won 2-0 probably.
Nahid was the primary catalyst for BD in this Test.

Even boards like NZ, SA don't prefer long series due to cost involved.

Fair enough, Im just someone who has been very annoyed at cricket for a long while now with how behind it is, and the unfair conditions some of its competitions brings.
But are you able to quickly summarise the main costs with Test cricket that make it challenging? Because I am curious

May be 2nd best pace bowling attack. Taijul is good but we lack a good leg spinner,if we had that then we could have a overall 2nd best bowling attack. Apart from India no team in Asia possess a threatening bowling attack in Asia.

That concludes BD's WTC.
BD finish this WTC edition with 4 wins. An improvement from previous WTCs where they won only 1 game in 2 WTCs.

Bangladesh completed their first Test match win in the Caribbean in 15 years with a dominant 101-run victory over the West Indies at Sabina Park to draw their two-match series 1-1 on Tuesday.
The tourists started Tuesday’s play in a strong position, 193-5 in 41.4 overs, leading by 211 in their second innings with Jaker Ali and Taijul Islam in the middle on 29 and 9, respectively.
Islam added a further five runs before becoming the first batsman dismissed on the day, caught by Kavem Hodge off the bowling of Alzarri Joseph in the 50th over if the innings.
The wicket of Mominul Haque followed soon after for a duck, leaving Bangladesh 211-7 in the 51st over and giving the hosts hope of wrapping up the innings in quick time to try and secure a series win with the bat.
Ali had other ideas, however, scoring rapidly in the midst of the falling wickets at the other end due to some adventurous stroke making, entertaining the small Sabina Park crowd.
Hasan Mahmud (3) and Taskin Ahmed (0) came and went during Ali’s onslaught that saw Bangladesh make it all the way to 268 all out off 59.5 overs.
Ali, in just his third Test match, was the last man dismissed for a crucial 91 off just 106 balls including eight fours and five sixes.
Kemar Roach finished with 3-36 off 10 overs while Alzarri Joseph and Shamar Joseph also had good spells with 3-77 and 2-80 off 15.5 and 12 overs, respectively.
Set 287 to win, West Indian openers Kraigg Brathwaite and Mikyle Louis set out to first ensure that they got to the lunch break without the loss of a wicket.
The post lunch session started with Brathwaite and new batsman Keacy Carty attempting to get stuck into some disciplined Bangladesh bowling.
Almost ten overs into the session, however, Carty played at one to many, edging behind to Litton Das off the bowling of Taijul Islam for 14 leaving the hosts 57-2, needing a further 230 to win.
35 runs later, Brathwaite got a beauty from Islam producing an edge that was parried off the gloves of Das into the arms of the diving Mahmudul Hasan Joy at first slip.
Brathwaite made an uncharacteristic 63-ball 43 including two fours and a six.
Three quickly became four as Islam struck once again, this time breaching the defense of Alick Athanaze for five to leave the hosts 106-4 in the 27th over with hopes of a win looking dimmer by the second.
Kavem Hodge and Justin Greaves tried to steady proceedings with a 37-run fifth wicket partnership, which lasted through the tea break.
During that partnership, Hodge brought up his third Test fifty before being dismissed not long after, trapped in front for 55 by Islam with the score on 143 in the 39th over.
Unfortunately, even that task proved too much as, in the fifth over of the innings and final one before lunch, Louis (6) played a full delivery from left arm spinner Taijul Islam onto his foot which then lobbed in the air to be caught by Shahadat Hossain fielding at short leg, leaving the West Indies 23-1 off 4.2 overs at lunch.
The wickets of Justin Greaves (20) in the 43rd over and Joshua Da Silva (12) in the 46th over basically ended all hope for what already looked like an improbable victory. Da Silva’s wicket brought up Islam’s 15th five wicket haul in Tests.
Fast bowlers Hasan Mahmud and first innings hero Nahid Rana combined with the wickets of Alzarri Joseph (5), Kemar Roach (8) and Shamar Joseph (8) to bowl out the West Indies for 185 in 50 overs and secure Bangladesh’s first win in the Caribbean since 2009.
Islam’s final figures were 5-50 off 17 overs while Mahmud and Taskin Ahmed took 2-20 from six overs and 2-45 from 10 overs, respectively.

Pretty impressive stuff. Definitely. A complete attack. Hope they manage Nahid Rana well. It is very rare to have a 145k bowler.

Jayden Seales and Kevin Sinclair fined for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct
West Indies bowlers, Jayden Seales and Kevin Sinclair have been found guilty of breaching the ICC Code of Conduct in their recently concluded second Test match against Bangladesh.
Seales has been fined 25 per cent of his match fee after being found to have breached article 2.20 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel which relates to “conduct that is contrary to the spirit of the game.”
In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to Seales’ disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.
The incident occurred in the first over of Bangladesh’s second batting innings when Seales made an inappropriate and overly aggressive gesture towards the opposition’s dressing room after taking a wicket.
Sinclair has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee after he was was found to have breached Article 2.4 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “Disobeying an Umpire’s instruction during an International Match.”
In addition to his fine, one demerit point has been added to Sinclair’s disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.
The incident took place when Sinclair ignored the instructions of the on-field umpires to stop using language deemed aggressive and harsh towards the Bangladesh batters.
Seales and Sinclair admitted their respective offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Jeff Crowe of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.
On-field umpires Asif Yaqoob and Kumar Dharmasena, third umpire Nitin Menon and fourth umpire, Zahid Bassarath levelled the charges.
Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.
