Spinner Taijul Islam was named player of the match after bowling figures of 5-50 on the fourth day, which helped ensure that the hosts were bowled out for 185 on Tuesday.

The other wickets on day four were taken by Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud and Nahid Rana – who had taken a five-for himself in West Indies' earlier innings.

Earlier in the day, Bangladesh had Jaker Ali (91) to thank for scoring 62 of Bangladesh's 75 runs in the morning session.

Jaker later took a ping off the top of his helmet from Jayden Seales but, fortunately for the visitors, was cleared to carry on. Though when Islam (14) and Mominul Haque (0) went in quickfire wickets, the outlook was gloomier.

Jaker, though, went into attack mode and helped Bangladesh to a total of 268 all out, giving West Indies 287 to chase.

Kaven Hodge (55) top-scored, while captain Kraigg Brathwaite (43) was the only other batsman to make more than 20 as West Indies found it impossible to build any momentum as they were skittled for 185.

As a result of the victory, West Indies have replaced Bangladesh at the bottom of the World Test Championship table, although both are out of contention of making the final.
