The first session of the day was uninterrupted by weather after West Indies were put into bat first. They lost two wickets before lunch, Kraigg Brathwaite out early for a 38-ball four and Keacy Carty falling for an eight-ball duck. Mikyle Louis, however, stood firm and carried his bat through the session, scoring 36 off 72 balls and seeing the hosts through to the break alongside Kavem Hodge.

New Bangladesh captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz elected to bowl at the toss, citing the two spinners Bangladesh have in their lineup as his reasoning. It was Taskin Ahmed, however who took the two wickets in the morning session. He trapped Brathwaite in front of his stumps before enticing Carty to chip a length ball to mid-on.

While the weather has stayed fair so far, there are potentially some showers lurking that could hit later in the day. Here's what weather services are saying.
