West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite says he expects Bangladesh to put up a tough fight on home turf when they kick off a two-Test series in Chittagong on Thursday.
The visitors start the series as favourites having thumped Bangladesh in back-to-back Tests during their tour of the Caribbean in July.
But Brathwaite exercised caution ahead of this week's series opener, saying Bangladesh could exploit their home advantage against the visiting side.
"There will be few challenges, we have to expect that," he told reporters after a two-day warm-up match in Chittagong on Monday ended in a draw.
"It won't be so easy. Obviously they are very good at home. But we are ready for the challenges."
