Zimbabwe Tour of Bangladesh, 2018
Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 3rd ODI Preview
The third and last ODI between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe will be played at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong on Friday noon. Bangladesh has already sealed the series by 2-0 and are cruising towards the clean sweep. After registering 28 runs win in the first ODI, Bangladesh easily chased down the 247 runs target set by the visitors with 7 wickets remaining.
Previous encounter:
Put into bat, Zimbabwe cruised to 246-7 with the help of Brendan Taylor (75 of 73), Sean Williams (47 of 76) and Sikandar Raza’s 49 of 61 deliveries. Coming to chase, Liton Das (83 of 77) and Imrul Kayes (90 of 111) gave a brilliant start to Bangladesh and collected 148 runs for the first wicket. Later on, Mushfiqur Rahim (40* of 52) and Mohammad Mithun (24* of 21) did the rest of the job.
Soumya Sarkar recalled:
Bangladesh has recalled Soumya Sarkar for the third ODI after he failed to secure a place in the original squad. He was also a late inclusion in Bangladesh’s Asia Cup squad. The management is considering him a different role and might make him bat at no.3 or 7.
The third ODI will be followed by two test matches scheduled to start from November 03.
