Africa. And now Bangladesh?s Australian coach Dav Whatmore is looking for similar success in the Caribbean.

?We are here to do as well as we can. We are here a little early which we think is a valuable asset to have. We see this is as a means of final preparation before the World Cup gets under way next month,? Whatmore said.

?Our team spirit is very good. The team has played some good cricket over the last six to eight months culminating in our first series victory abroad against a full ICC-member country (Zimbabwe) just a week ago.?

Bangladesh, who arrived in Antigua last Tuesday, will also meet Bermuda on March 25 in a World Cup Group B preliminary match at Queen?s Park Oval, Trinidad and Tobago.

The Asian team will play their official World Cup warm-up matches in Barbados against New Zealand and Scotland before travelling to Trinidad.
