Mahmudullah's best performance today, he scored a half century at this late age. But the other players did not score good runs, usually if the opening batsman performed well, the next batsman could perform well.  Now basically the Zimbabwean team is in batting form, they have performed much better in the opening compared to Bangladesh. But if Bangladesh team wants to win today then they must perform well. Because with a target of 157 runs it is never possible for the team to win if the bowling performance is not good. Especially in today's match, the Zimbabwean team will perform with their best efforts to grab the victory.

Zimbabwe looking good in 5th T20I to avoid whitewash. It's a terrible T20I series for Zimbabwe as they have lost all 4 games so far. There is 75 runs partnership between Sikandar Raza and  Brian Bennett that put Zimbabwe in control of the match. If Zimbabwe team has shown such performance in earlier games the results would be very different. Zimbabwe team is very much dependent on Raza and this is something they must have got rid of as quickly as possible.

Zimbabwe outstanding performance in last match of the series chased down the target of 158 runs in a loss of just 2 wickets in just 18.3 overs of the match. Sikandar Raza played an amazing inning of 72 runs unbeaten from just only 46 balls and also earned the player of the match award. Shakib Al Hasan bowled well and picked only 1 wicket by just giving only 9 runs in his bowling spell but failed to defend the total.

In the fifth and final t20 match against Zimbabwe, Bangladesh came into the field with several changes. Zimbabwe won the toss against Bangladesh and elected to field first after winning the toss. At the end of 17 overs, Bangladesh collected 124 runs for 5 wickets. There are still three overs left and Bangladesh must try to score 40 plus runs in these three overs. If Bangladesh can score 40 plus runs in the last three overs then the target will be pretty good for Zimbabwe and Bangladesh will likely win that match. Since two hard hitting batsmen are on the wicket at the moment, surely they will be able to score big.

I think the bowling decision of Zimbabwe team is good Bangladesh did not bat well and lost his 6 wickets in just 131 runs in 18 ovoversf the match. the remaining 2oversf the match wewille game changing for Bangladesh if they set a target of 150 plus runs for Zimbabwe. The bowling performance of Zimbabwe is outstanding especially Muzarabani bowling well picked 2 important wickets by giving only 10 runs and Bennett also picked 2 wickets by giving 20 runs.

5th T20I, Mirpur, May 12, 2024, Zimbabwe tour of Bangladesh | Zimbabwe won the toss and chose to field first. Bangladesh already left 3 important wickets within 5 overs. Brian Bennett already beat 2 vital wickets named Soumya Sarkar (7), and Towhid Hridoy (1). I think Towhid Hridoy is an unnecessary player of Bangladesh. Mahmudullah is most effective from Towhid Hridoy. If Mahmudullah and Najmul Hossain Shanto played well then the match score would have reached a chachable figure. Specially I was impressed by the bowling of Blessing Muzarabani and Brian Bennett. A proverb says, "Old is Gold, Yes Mahmudullah is that gold." The final score of Bangladesh is 157/6 from 20 overs—best of luck Zimbabwe to chase.

In the beginning, Bangladesh team fallen in pressure but Zimbabwe could not continue that pressure in the middle of the innings. Bangladesh team overcame the beginning pressure very nicely. But in this match Bangladeshi bowlers could not show any good performance in today's match on the others Zimbabwean team may not have wanted to play Shakib's overs from the start. They succeeded in their strategy today. A question remains most of readers mind that Bangladesh who have already won 4 matches, and there is no pressure to win today's match for them. But The Zimbabwean team did not return empty-handed. Brian Bennett is a great batsman. The Zimbabwean team will get something good from him in the future.

Zimbabwe team is very much dependent on Raza and this is something they must have got rid of as quickly as possible.

Zimbabwe won by 8 wickets (with 9 balls remaining). Yes, we see the performance of Brian Bennett (70), and  Sikandar Raza (70). So we can say Brian Bennett is the player of the match. He is brilliant and his outstanding performance beat Bangladesh by 8 wickets. 157 runs is not a big target for winning. Congratulations Zimbabwe team.

Today in the fifth T20 match against Bangladesh, the beautiful performance of the Zimbabwean team, if they could have done such a performance in the qualifying round, then maybe they would have got a chance in the World Cup. I think the performance of the Zimbabwe team today against Bangladesh is that they played without fear or pressure which is why they performed so well. If we look at the first four T20 matches of the T20 series between these two teams, it will be clear to everyone how Zimbabwe performed there. Zimbabwe's performance in the fifth match was a stark contrast to their performance in the first four matches and they improved themselves a lot in the fifth T20I.

In the last T20 match, Zimbabwe defeated Bangladesh by a huge margin of eight wickets to complete the series 4-1. Even if Zimbabwe lose the series, maybe a fifth T20 win will give them some relief.

Bangladesh team could not perform well enough in this match today due to which they lost. Shakib Al Hasan of Bangladesh team has performed well enough to collect one wicket with 9 runs in 4 overs. If Shakib Al Hasan could have performed well like Anand Bale then there would have been a chance to win, the worst performance was Mohammad Saifuddin who conceded 55 runs in four overs picking up just one wicket. But I can say that if they had won the last four matches, Bangladesh team could have won the fifth T20I match. But it seems that the Bangladesh team did not try too hard to win this match, as the Zimbabwean team performed very well and maintained their reputation.

Zimbabwe's performance in the fifth match was a stark contrast to their performance in the first four matches and they improved themselves a lot in the fifth T20I.

You are right Zimbabwe's outstanding performance in the last match of the series but the Bangladesh team won the series by winning 4 matches. i Thin Zimbabwe team won the match due to the round performance of Brian Bennett. The Player of the Match is Brian Bennett for his all-round batting and bowling performance first they picked 2 important wickets by giving only 20 runs and in batting they scored 70 runs from just only 49 balls, which helped his team to Chase down the target re easily.

Pride is good but too much pride is dangerous. Bangladesh has already won four of the five-match series. So probably everyone in the Bangladesh team was carrying on with pride and arrogance. And that is the root of the downfall of pride that has been observed today. Shakibul Hasan is a very good batsman but after playing so well he could not play today. Of course, he fixed the matter by bowling. But the rest of the team has not played such a bad game.

Lol, 10 overs gone and RR has been playing an odi game, are RR batters affected by heat or what? If that's so, whatever 170-80 target RR is going to give, CSK should be able to do it easily, because firstly they are gonna bat in cooler evening and secondly, in their last game against GT, they did well even with that opening disaster, 170-180 target is nothing.

[libert19]

...and RR settles for 141 — were they playing to lose? Do they want CSK in play-offs? is it in service for Dhoni? CSK will definitely try to chase this mediocre target fast to get that crucial NRR boost.

Spirited bowling by Chennai Super Kings bowlers which not allowed Royal Rajasthan batsmen to play freely and having any trouble for them while chasing right now as we are having end of the first half of this match we have Royal Rajasthan which after winning toss choose to bat first having troubling batting while they fail to bring good target for themselves to defend against team like Chennai Super Kings.

Simarjeet Singh pick of the bowers with his 3 early wickets, and now we have 2 wickets for the Tushar Deshpande which increase problems for the Royal Rajasthan which ends their inning with the score of just 141 for 5 after completing their 20 overs which is looking not good to defend and this could be ticketed for the Chennai Super Kings for the playoffs with RCB chances are going to be limited.

The royals choking royally! This would be their 3rd consecutive defeat, it seems like they ran out of luck after their encounter against SRH (1 run defeat).

I still feel they'll qualify and win at least one of their remaining matches but can imagine the heartbreak if they fail to secure even the last spot and GT or DC slide in.

[Haunebu]

I doubt that. They pretty much qualified already and their NRR is pretty good too. Their performance in this particular match has been crappy though thanks to some great bowling performances by CSK.

Their momentum got screwed by SRH and they are going downhill at the worst time possible, but they are still great contenders for the cup if you ask me.

They should but one big defeat and their NRR could take a serious dent.

RR has 1 match against Kolkatta so it won't be a cakewalk for them and 1 against Punjab, they are weaker but they did produce a fair amount of thrillers so fingers crossed for Rajasthan.

[libert19]

Pathetic batting from CSK, ain't even funny. Jadeja's out will bring so much entertainment in next few hours on social media.

Finally, Zimbabwe won this match and they ended the series on a good note. Although they lost the series but it is always good to have a win under your belt in the last match of the series. By the way, Bangladesh ended this series with a 4-1 win. 

In this match, Bangladesh made 157 runs and they thought they will be able to defend it but not to be as Zimbabwe batsmen batted well to chase this score. Although Tadiwanashe Marumani was out early but Brian Bennett and Sikandar Raza, both made 70+ runs each and made sure that the Zimbabwe team were over the mark. I wonder why these players were unable to show similar performances in earlier matches 

Bennett, Raza seal consolation win for Zimbabwe

Pakistan team has left the country to play World Cup and before that they will play T20 series against Ireland and England. Pakistan must have made changes in the squad to replace slow batsmen like Muhammad Rizwan but there is no more time left to make changes. T20 is unpredictable format and despite poor form Pakistan can do surprises in upcoming world Cup.

The 2nd match between Ireland and Pakistan has been delayed due to rain in Ireland but hope it will stop after some time and we see a complete match.

Also, I have a piece of news that Muhammad Amir got a visa to Ireland and he reached there yesterday, also met with the Pakistan Chairman Mohsin Naqvi and he would be a part of this match but the rain came on the ground which caused that till now the squad wasn’t announced that is why I cannot say anything about Muhammad Aamir playing or not. The rain is delaying the match and fingers are crossed that it will stop and play will resume.
