It&#8217;s just disappointing that we&#8217;ve finished the year so badly as a T20 group. But when you look at the duration of the year, we\u2019ve played some good T20 cricket, but not just for long enough periods,&#8221; Powell said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also noted that the team would take some time to clear their minds and return stronger for their next series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The series sweep gives Bangladesh a well-deserved confidence boost as they leave the Caribbean, while the West Indies will need to regroup and focus on improving their T20 performances moving forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tyriq WaltersDecember 20, 2024 The Bangladesh cricket team completed a dominant series sweep against the West Indies in the T20 format with an impressive 80-run victory at the Arnos&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":24483,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[350,352],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-sports"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25946","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25946"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25946\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25947,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25946\/revisions\/25947"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
