Bangladesh withstood a withering assault from Andre Russell to complete a series-clinching 19-run victory on the Duckworth–Lewis (D/L) method over the West Indies in the rain-affected deciding final fixture of their three-match T20 International Series yesterday.
Russell smashed 47 off just 21 deliveries with six towering sixes and one four to keep the Caribbean side in with a chance of surpassing Bangladesh’s formidable total of 184 for five at Central Broward Stadium in Florida.
However his dismissal at the start of the 18th over, giving left-arm seamer Mus-ta-fi-zur Rah-man his third wicket of the innings effectively sealed the result in favour of Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, Vincentian Dugal Williams placed second at the British Drug Free Powerlifting Association 2018 National Full Power Championships held in the UK on July 29, 2018.
Williams who hails from Sion Hill, here in St.Vincent, is a Senior Non Commissioned Officer in the British Army. He placed 2nd in the Male 110 Kilogram weight Class and narrowly missed the top spot by a few grams.
