After Day Three of the Jamaica Test, Bangladesh finds itself in a favorable position with a 211-run lead and five wickets in hand. However, West Indies remain optimistic, aiming for quick wickets and a historic chase on a pitch still conducive to batting.

West Indies all-rounder Justin Greaves, stepping up in Kemar Roach’s absence, believes the game is still balanced despite Bangladesh’s stronghold. Speaking after the third day, Greaves said: "I feel the game is still balanced. We may have fallen slightly behind today, but the bowlers have done well in the second innings. I believe we can turn things around with the bat as the pitch remains playable. I’m confident we can bounce back in the second innings."

With Roach sidelined due to injury, Greaves has embraced the added responsibility, noting: "As a bowler, I do have certain responsibilities, and I enjoy them. With Roach out, I know I’ll have to bowl more, and I’m ready for it. Tomorrow, we’ll look to take quick wickets early."

The hosts have chased down over 200 runs at this venue before and remain confident in their ability to do so again. Greaves expressed belief in restricting Bangladesh to a manageable total: "Whatever total they post, we are not overly concerned. We’ll aim to keep them to 250-275 runs. The wicket still favors batting, and if we manage that, we’ll have a good chance."

Bangladesh, with a first-innings lead of 18 runs, ended Day Three at 193/5 in their second innings. The Tigers’ current lead of 211 runs puts them in a strong position. Contributions from key players, including Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Jaker Ali, have kept the scoreboard ticking as they look to set a challenging target for the hosts.
