Terming it "revenge" wouldn't be usual but it'll be nothing less than that when West Indies tour Bangladesh this October 2011..Couple of years ago, when West Indies had first fallen into Board vs Players problem, they had fielded a second grade team against touring Bangladesh and lost both the test matches which was Bangladesh's first ever overseas test series victory and then all the three one day internationals.
Darren Sammy was the rookie captain at that time but now, he's been two team old into his perstigious job. Now, the question is can Windies take their revenge in Bangla's backyard? they should. Board vs players problem persists but Windies did well in two series at home against Pakistan and India earlier this year and several of their players now have the experience. West Indies still are more talented team than Bangladesh but home team will calculate their chances too.
West Indies begin Bangladesh tour with couple of warm-up matches coming from t20 series in England before the only twenty20 which will be played on 11th October. First three one day international will also be played at Sher-e-Bangla stadium in Mirpur before caravan moves to Zahur Ahmed Chowdhary stadium in Chittagong where last one day as well as the first test match will be played, starting on 21st October.
Second test match will be on either side of October and November, back at Mirpur.
