On 22 May 2022, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced all the squads for the tour to the West Indies, with Mominul Haque captaining the Test side.[8] However, after Bangladesh lost their two-match Test series against Sri Lanka,[9] Haque resigned as the captain of Bangladesh's Test team.[10] Shakib Al Hasan was named as Bangladesh's new Test captain,[11] with Litton Das being appointed as his deputy.[12]
A day before the first Test, the Test series was named as the Padma Bridge Friendship Series, to celebrate the inauguration of Bangladesh's ambitious Padma Bridge project.[13][14] The West Indies won the first Test by seven wickets early on the fourth day,[15] after Bangladesh were bowled out for just 103 runs in their first innings.[16] The West Indies won the second Test by ten wickets to win the series 2–0.[17] The defeat in the second Test was Bangladesh's 100th loss in Test cricket.[18]
Between the Test and T20I series, Bangladeshi cricketers reported to have experienced an uncomfortable ferry ride,[19] with several players suffering from motion sickness from high waves due to a cyclone two days previous. One of the players said to Prothom Alo "We are the ones who can fall sick and die here, us, nothing will happen to them. I have toured many countries, this is the first time I am experiencing something like this. None of us are used to this. Forget about playing, what will happen if one of us gets seriously ill in the ferry. This is the worst tour of my life".[20]
The first T20I was delayed by nearly two hours due to a wet outfield.[21] After several rain interruptions, only 13 overs of play was possible, with the match ending in a no result.[22] The following day, the second T20I was played at the same venue, with the West Indies winning by 35 runs.[23] The West Indies won the third and final T20I match by five wickets to win the series 2–0.[24]
Bangladesh won the first ODI match by six wickets to record their first win of the tour.[25] Bangladesh won the second match by nine wickets to win the series with a match to play.[26] Bangladesh won the third ODI match by four wickets to win the series 3–0.[27] Shortly after winning the series, Bangladesh's ODI captain Tamim Iqbal announced his retirement from T20I cricket.[28]
