"We started really well, especially Nahid and Taskin and Tanzim, they bowled really well. But after that we didn't bowl well in the middle overs, we didn't get wickets. It can happen, but still wicket was looking good and they played well," he added.
Sherfane Rutherford's brilliant maiden century played a key role in securing a convincing victory for the West Indies.
