Off- spinner Mehidy Hasan claimed a career- best 12 wickets as Bangladesh thumped West Indies by an innings and 184 runs here yesterday to sweep the two- match series. Hasan took 7- 58 and 5- 59 in the first and second innings respectively to help the Tigers bowl out the visitors for 111 and 213 runs on the third day of the second Test. Bangladesh made 508 runs in their only innings at Shere- Bangla National Stadium to claim their first- ever victory by an innings margin.

It was Bangladesh’s first Test series win in four years, after they won the opener in Chittagong by 64 runs. West Indies wilted for 213 all out in the second innings after earning the dubious distinction of becoming the first side ever to be asked to follow- on by Bangladesh in a Test match.
