Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh 3rd T20I Preview
Bangladesh at first appeared unstoppable after they were asked to bat, with Saif Hassan and Tanzid Hasan dominating the early overs. The pair constructed a 120-run opening partnership and brought up impressive half-centuries, aided by a series of missed opportunities from Zimbabwe's fielders.
It was a rare off day in the field for Zimbabwe, who looked short of ideas despite using seven bowling options. Their struggles were summed up by six dropped catches, including one late in the innings.
Zimbabwe failed to fully exploit the opening they created, allowing Yasir Ali to keep the scoreboard moving with three boundaries. Saifuddin then produced a stunning finish, launching four sixes in the final over, while Zimbabwe's poor fielding was highlighted again when he was dropped on the final delivery, their seventh missed catch of the innings.
In reply, Zimbabwe failed to get any momentum in their innings and kept losing crucial wickets at regular intervals. Mahedi Hasan and Rishad Hossain (who came in place of Nasum) were the chief destroyers bagging seven wickets for fifty runs.
