The West Indies cricket team toured Bangladesh in November and December 2018 to play two Tests, three One Day Internationals (ODIs) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches. It was the West Indies first full tour of Bangladesh since December 2012. The fixtures were confirmed in July 2018, with the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium scheduled to host its first ODI match. The third ODI of the series, played on 14 December 2018, became the inaugural ODI match at Sylhet Stadium.
Ahead of the series, the West Indies' captain Jason Holder was ruled out of the tour with a shoulder injury. Kraigg Brathwaite replaced Holder as the captain of the Test side, and Rovman Powell captained the ODI side.
Bangladesh won the first Test by 64 runs to record their first home victory against the West Indies. Bangladesh won the second Test by an innings and 184 runs, their biggest winning margin in Tests, to take the series 2–0. It was Bangladesh's first series win against the West Indies. Bangladesh's spinners took all 40 wickets, becoming the first team to take all 40 wickets in a two-match Test series by spin. Bangladesh won the ODI series 2–1. The West Indies won the T20I series 2–1.
