During the 1st T20I between Bangladesh and the West Indies<\/strong><\/a> in Chattogram, an unusual and unfortunate incident occurred involving Bangladesh\u2019s bowler, Taskin Ahmed<\/strong>, as he attempted to hit the last ball of Bangladesh\u2019s innings out of the park. Taskin, looking to reduce the margin of defeat, faced a bizarre turn of events that resulted in his dismissal in a way no one could have predicted.<\/p>\n It all unfolded during the fourth ball of the final over, bowled by Romario Shepherd<\/strong><\/a>. Shepherd delivered a short ball angling away from Taskin, clearly aiming to keep it away from the batsman\u2019s hitting arc. However, Taskin, with determination to smash the ball, dragged it away from the off stump, launching it towards the mid-wicket fence for what seemed like a six.<\/p>\n But just as Taskin made contact with the ball, disaster struck. In his attempt to heave the ball over the leg side, he inadvertently went too deep into the crease, and his boots made contact with the stumps. The off-side bail dislodged, and the wicketkeeper\u2019s bails fell off even before the ball had arrived, leading to an unexpected and bizarre hit-wicket dismissal. Taskin stood in disbelief at what had just transpired, while Shepherd couldn\u2019t help but pass a knowing smile towards him.<\/p>\n With that, Taskin\u2019s brave attempt to hit a maximum ended in the most bizarre of ways, bringing an unfortunate close to Bangladesh\u2019s innings. It was a surreal moment, leaving everyone in the stadium stunned, and signaling the end of a spirited fightback from Bangladesh. Taskin\u2019s look of disbelief said it all, from jubilation to despair in a single motion. West Indies players, quick to realize the outcome, celebrated a 16-run win that gave them a crucial 1\u20130 series lead. It was one of those rare dismissals that etched itself instantly into cricket\u2019s library of unforgettable moments.<\/p>\n When you think you’ve won but life pulls an UNO reverse \u25c0\ufe0f#BANvWI<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/neEUjd6bcZ<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 FanCode (@FanCode) October 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Also READ: Bangladesh vs West Indies, T20I Series: Date, Match Time, Squads, Broadcast and Live Streaming details<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Earlier, West Indies captain Shai Hope\u2019s<\/strong> decision to bat first proved wise despite a cautious start. The visitors scored only 36 runs in the powerplay, with openers Brandon King<\/strong> and Alick Athanaze<\/strong> finding it tough against Nasum Ahmed<\/strong>\u2019s miserly spell (0\/15 in four overs). But the innings turned around spectacularly when Hope and Rovman Powell<\/strong> unleashed their power-hitting in the final overs, adding 51 runs in just three overs to post a commanding 165\/3. Taskin bowled with purpose to take two wickets, while Rishad Hossain<\/strong> chipped in with one, but the momentum had already shifted.<\/p>\n Bangladesh\u2019s chase began in disarray. Early wickets derailed their rhythm, and by the ninth over, they were reeling at 57\/5. Tanzim Hasan Sakib<\/strong> fought valiantly with a brisk 33, but the lower order couldn\u2019t withstand the sustained pressure from Jason Holder<\/strong> (3\/31) and Jayden Seales<\/strong> (3\/32). Despite Taskin\u2019s late cameo and momentary flash of brilliance, Bangladesh\u2019s innings folded for 149 in 19.4 overs. For West Indies, the win was as much about discipline as it was about seizing key moments. As the teams prepare for the next match in Chattogram, Bangladesh will look to regroup quickly, and perhaps ensure their next six stays clear of the stumps.<\/p>\n Also READ: <\/strong>West Indies takes a 1-0 series lead as Rovman Powell stars in win over Bangladesh in first T20I<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nTaskin Ahmed\u2019s powerful six turns into an unexpected hit wicket in BAN vs WI 1st T20I<\/strong><\/h2>\n
