Bangladesh Vs Zimbabe Preview
Bangladesh will look to wrap the series up when they take on Zimbabwe in the third One-Day International (ODI) of the 5-match series in Dhaka. The hosts haven't won a bilateral ODI series since they beat New Zealand at home same time last year.
Zimbabwe, on the other hand will look to give a better account of themselves after a couple of indifferent performances that had captain Elton Chigumbura rue his side's inability to learn from mistakes.
Bangladesh would be boosted by the form of fast-bowler Mashrafe Mortaza, who has, so far, taken five wickets in the two games. The fact that he thinks he is only at 80 percent of his level augurs well for the team.
With Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal and Anamul Haque showing good touch with the bat, Bangladesh will have every reason to believe they can get the job done.
Zimbabwe, on the other hand, did well to restrict Bangladesh to 251 in the second ODI but lost their way early in the chase. Solomon Mire showed that he is a useful middle-order batsman and could do with some assistance from the top-order. The good thing is that Zimbabwe realise that they now have a must-win game and that in itself may turn out to be the inspiration they so dearly seek.
