On Day 1 of the second and final Test against the West Indies at Sabina Park, Jamaica, Bangladesh reached 69-2 before rain interrupted play, limiting the day's action to just 30 overs. Bangladesh won the toss and opted to bat, making one change to their lineup with pacer Nahid Rana replacing Shoriful Islam.
The day started poorly for Bangladesh, as they lost opener Mahmudul Islam Joy for just 3 runs, and shortly after, Mominul Haque was dismissed for a duck, leaving the team in a precarious position at 10-2 in the seventh over. Both wickets were claimed by West Indies' fast bowler Kemar Roach.
Despite some close calls, Shadman Islam held firm and reached a half-century, finishing the day on exactly 50 runs, with Shahadat Hossain Dipu on 12 at stumps. Bangladesh is trailing 1-0 in the series following their heavy 201-run defeat in the first Test.
