Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe – Previews and Betting Tips

It was a disappointing day for Bangladesh at the SCG as South Africa had different plans for them. Being asked to bowl first, Bangladesh’s bowling display went completely south. Courtesy of Rilee Rossouw's 56-ball 109, South Africa smashed 205/5 in their 20 overs. In a rather disappointing first half, Skipper Shakib al Hasan bagged 2/33 in 3 overs. 

As the tigers came out for the chase, they smashed Rabada for 17 runs off the very first over. However, it all went downhill since there for them. They kept losing one wicket after the other as Anrich Nortje’s 4/10 helped bundle out Bangladesh for 101. Litton Das top scored with a 31-ball 34 alongside Soumya Sarkar’s 6-ball 15 cameo. This loss got Bangladesh’s performance tally to 4 losses out of 5 games. 

Meanwhile, Zimbabwe are walking into this encounter with a fantastic win over Pakistan. Choosing to bat first at Optus stadium, Zimbabwe failed to put up a huge total. Sean William top-scored with 31 off 28 balls in a total of 130/8. Brad Evans & Craig Ervine contributed with 19 runs each but couldn’t do much. 

However, Zimbabwe made what seemed like an easy run-chase very difficult. Sikandar Raza’s 3/25 and Brad Evans' 2/25 had Pakistan struggling. With 11 required off the final over, Evans took the onus on his shoulders. He started poorly but managed to pull his side back into the game. A run out of the last ball meant a historic win for Zimbabwe.

Encounters like these always gather a lot of confidence among the players. Hence, going into this encounter, we predict Zimbabwe to win this fixture. For this match-up, we advise you do your research on the team form, head-to-head results, and player performances. This will help you in placing a reliable bet.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe had come a long way from being banned by the ICC a year ago to clinching a memorable win against Pakistan at the world cup. Although, the job is not done as their next assignment is Bangladesh. For this, Sikandar Raza is all set with his all-around brilliance. With 313 runs in just 10 matches, Raza also has 15 wickets under his belt at an economy of just 6.13. Supporting him with the bat is Wesley Madhevere who has 228 runs in his past 10 games. In the bowling unit, it’ll be blessing Muzarabani who has been stealing the limelight with his bowling. In the past 6 games, he has bagged 9 wickets and will prove to be very lethal against Bangladesh.

Squad: Regis Chakabva(wk), Craig Ervine(C), Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Wesley Madhevere, Milton Shumba, Ryan Burl, Luke Jongwe, Richard Ngarava, Tendai Chatara, Blessing Muzarabani
