Bangladesh oozed with confidence to seal the three-match T20 International and thereby end the Zimbabwe tour with a winning note as they take on the hosts on Sunday in the third and final T20 match at Harare Sports Club.

The match will start at 4.30 M as per Bangladesh Standard Time and will be aired live on Gazi TV and T Sports. With this match, Bangladesh’s month-long tour in Zimbabwe will come to an end.

Bangladesh so far won the one-off Test and whitewashed Zimbabwe in three-match ODI series. They also won the first T20 game before experiencing their first defeat in the series when Zimbabwe secured a 23-run victory in the second match.

A Zimbabwe victory effectively ended Bangladesh’s hope to win all matches in the tour but still there was a chance for Mahmudullah Riyad and co. to win the T20 series.

With the series locked at 1-1 now, the Tigers indeed want to claw back in style to not only confirm the series but also end the tour successfully.

Bangladesh and Zimbabwe so far contested in five T20 series, amongst which the Tigers won two series and the rest of the three series ended in a draw.

There is a chance for Zimbabwe now to end that drought. But Bangladesh wouldn’t like to squander the chance to beat Zimbabwe at their own den for the first time. Last time in 2013 in Zimbabwe, the two-match T20 series between the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw.

Bangladesh’s T20 record however didn’t speak a volume of them even though they have the upper-hand over the Southern African nation in this shortest format of cricket too.

The two teams so far faced off against each other 15 times and Bangladesh won 10 matches in contrast to experiencing defeat in 5 matches.

Overall Bangladesh played 101 T20 Internationals and won just 33. They had lost a staggering number of 66 matches while two matches fetched no result.

Bangladesh’s T20I squad: Mahmudullah Riyad (Captain), Tamim Iqbal, Naim Sheikh, Liton Kumar Das, Shakib Al Hasan, Soumya Sarker, Afif Hossain, Shamim Hossain Patwari, Nurul Hasan Sohan, Nasum Ahmed, Sheikh Mahedi Hasan, Aminul Islam Biplob, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam.
