Dhaka, 21 Oct - West Indies captain Shai Hope said his side must learn from the mistakes made in the second ODI against Bangladesh, even though they managed to win the match at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium today.

Hope led the charge with 67 ball-53 not out and also hit a boundary in the super over, which eventually became key in determining the course of the game.

Hope believes they need to learn from the mistakes in a bid to win the series as they would have to face another spin test in the series-deciding third game on Thursday.

"It was a tricky chase. It was important for us to keep wickets in the hand but we lost quite a few in the back end," Hope said after the match. "Hopefully, we can learn a lot about our batting innings and take those learnings into the next game."

Bangladesh managed to post 213-9 after opting to bat first, a total that appeared to be winning one. 

But the stubborn knock from Hope helped West Indies level the total from a precarious situation and took the game to the Super Over.

"We say about West Indies cricket that we always keep fans on the seats, so... It was a very good game. Happy that the guys pulled it back," he said. 

"We should have restricted them to 160-170 but they played very well in the back end. But we fought hard with the bat and great to level the series."BSS
