Best avoids worst scenario for WI

8216;8216;We got the most important thing 8211; the win 8211; but we are not happy about the way we went about getting this result,8217;8217; acting West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan said yesterday.

8216;8216;We certainly will not be underestimating them on Sunday. They are improving and we saw that in this match.8217;8217;

Ricardo Powell hit half-dozen boundaries in the top score of 52 from 64 balls, but he too, was guilty of the thoughtless, careless batting that almost sunk West Indies.

Left-arm spin bowler Manjural Islam Rana again showed that he could be Bangladesh8217;s main weapon on this trip with three wickets for 21 runs from 10 overs and Khaled Mahmud took two for 15 from 10 overs.

8216;8216;If we had scored a few more runs, like 200 or more, it would have been quite interesting,8217;8217; Bangladesh captain Habibul Bashar said.

8216;8216;I am very happy with the boys8217; effort and I think we have learnt quite a lot from this match.8217;8217;
