Zimbabwe VS Bangladesh

Bangladesh is playing their first ODI match against Zimbabwe. I am sure Bangladesh will win. Bangladesh is a very strong team in the ODI format. However, Bangladesh conceded a shameful defeat in the T20 format. Bangladeshi players should avenge the previous defeat. And will dominate every match in the series. Let's see how Bangladesh performs.

Bangladesh players played very well.  Bangladesh lost 2 wickets.  Mushfiqur Rahim scored 52 runs off 49 balls.  He played a lot of ball games.  Mahmudullah scored 20 runs off 12 balls.  It is expected that Bangladesh will win this game.  The quality of Bangladesh's openers is good today.  Now if they can bowl the ball then this match will be won by the players of Bangladesh.

Nothing can be said until the game is over. Bangladesh played beter. Because of that, there is no word that they will win, if Zimbabwe plays a beter game from the players of Bangladesh, then Zimbabwe will win today's match. And if they play a bad game then Bangladesh will win.

Bangladesh set a huge target of 304. The interesting fact is that Bangladesh scored 303 runs with the loss of only 2 wickets. The First 4 batsmen of the squad managed to collect more than 50. Especially the opening pair of Bangladesh collected 119 runs. I don't remember the last time Bangladesh's opening pair managed to put together a 100-run partnership. Bangladesh players have batted well. Hope they bowl well as usual.

Bangladesh have scored good run, but they weren't able to restrict Zimbabwe within the 303 runs. Zimbabwe have scored 275 runs in 45 overs losing 4 wickets. Zimbabwe requires another 29 runs in 30 balls. Two big 100 from Kaia and Raza. Already Zimbabwe won the T20 series and now leads the ODI series with the big win on the first match.

What happened to you Bongs? You guys are making strong case for ICC to snatch your full member status.

Shitting all over in Red ball is understandable due to domestic cricket, getting belted in T-20 is also understandable as there are no power hitters but now surrendering in ODI and that too against Zim? ODI was supposed to be your fav format.

Shameful performance from Bangladeshi players. The pitch was favourable for batting. Bangladesh scored 303 runs only by losing 2 wickets. They had 9 wickets in hand, but they didn't try to hit so many boundaries in the middle and death overs. I had placed a bet on Bangladesh with full confidence. The odds was 1.41× for them. But their performance was really worst. The dropped some catches, the bowlers has given a lot of runs. No one expected that Bangladesh will lose against Zimbabwe in this way.

The Bangladeshi players thought they would win easily if they could score more than 300. They considered the Zimbabwean team to be weak. This was their main mistake. Bangladesh only collected 116 runs in the first 25 overs. As the pitch was batting friendly, the Bangladeshi players should have batted better. However, they paid well for their mistakes. After the T20 series defeat, Bangladesh is going to lose the ODI series as well.

I did not understand what happened to Bangladesh during the visit to Zimbabwe. They have already lost the T20 series and the ODI match here too but Bangladesh lost to Zimbabwe. We all know how strong Bangladesh is in ODI cricket. If the ODI ranking of 2022 is considered then Bangladesh has occupied the top position of the points table with maximum points But since Bangladesh is a very strong team in ODI cricket, I hope Bangladesh will turn around again against Zimbabwe in this next match.

Bangladesh team scored 116 runs in the first 25 overs but it is a very bad performance for Bangladesh team.If they bowled so many overs here and scored only 116 runs, it is not enough for a team to win.Tamim Iqbal, Liton Das, if they could have scored more runs, the team would have been more hopeful to win.It was clear from the game that they think Zimbabwe is too weak.But Zimbabwe have shown Bangladesh that they are not really weak.

Bangladesh's performance against West Indies was good enough if we don't consider the performance in the Test format. But Bangladesh's performance against Zimbabwe has been poor from the start. Bangladesh was defeated in the T20 series. Bangladesh could not win even with a target of more than 300 in the ODI format. I did not expect to see such a poor performance from the Bangladesh bowlers. The performance of the spin bowlers in particular was poorer today.

[Sithara007]

What a performance from Sikandar Raza? I am feeling really sad about him. If he was playing for any other team, then he would have been famous all across the world. Unfortunately, he plays for a shitty cricket board which mistreats its players. Anyway, now he is 36 years old and at the most he has another two years or so with him. But he will always be remembered as one of the classy players Zimbabwe ever had. And regrading Bangladesh, I am really fed up. These guys can't win abroad. Even against a weak team like Zimbabwe.

Sikandar Raza had played an important innings and managed to win against Bangladesh. I'm really disappointed about the performance of Bangladesh. Totally poor performance from Bangladeshi players. They have good players to win but lacking of knowledge and experience.

The main heroes behind this victory are Sikander Raja and Innocent Kaia. Zimbabwe lost two openers for just 6 runs. It was unimaginable that they would then return to the truck in such a grand manner. Anyway congratulations to the Zimbabwean team. They played very well. Their performance has improved a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if Zimbabwe win the ODI series like the T20 series.

Bangladesh had a good start and they still had wickets in hand and yet they were not able to accelerate the innings and reach a good total, if not for the innings from Mahmudullah, they would not reach the 303 runs. Zimbabwe lost their openers early but Innocent Kaia whom i am hearing for the first time and Sikandar Raza scored centuries each and reached the total easily.

I am going to blame the Bangladesh bowling lineup for this. And also the finishing of Bangladeshi batsmen to some extent. Bangladesh had a lot of wickets in hand but they couldn’t make proper use of them. Honestly, I am very disappointed watching the performance of Bangladesh even in ODI. I thought the Bangladesh team could play the ODI better compared to the other two formats. But it is the same old story here also.

If they are not able to beat a team like Zimbabwe without the experienced players of the Bangladesh team, where is the Bangladesh team going from here in the future? This was a winnable match for Bangladesh which they lost.

Bangladesh team was busy thinking about beating Zimbabwe by 300 runs. But Zimbabwe showed it well as they took more than 300 runs How to grow a team However, I blame the Bangladesh team's batting performance the most for the loss of the Bangladesh team yesterday.How players like Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das bowled so many balls to score only 62(88) runs and 81(89) runs respectively.Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das are the batting duo most responsible for Bangladesh's loss.

[pakhitheboss]

After scoring 300+ runs if you still can defend you score from a weaker team like Zimbabwe then their is some issue with your team. Pathetic performance by Bangladesh they have displayed their worst bowling in yesterday's match. I never expected Zimbabwe to chase such a big target. Sikandar Razza brilliant not out knock of 135 lead to this victory
 
Such irresponsible performance can be only achieved by Bangladesh. They are hopeless in test cricket and now they are becoming the same in ODI.

I think all openers in Bangladesh are weak. I thought Bangladesh scored a few runs and played a much better game. Later I saw that these runs were nothing for Zimbabwe. If Bangladesh could have scored a little more runs, then it seems they could have won. But the runs they scored are not important for Zimbabwe to win the match. Zimbabwe has shown that Bangladesh's players have nothing to do with this run. Bangladesh is playing a very bad game.

Bangladesh scored so many runs yesterday, I was confident that Bangladesh will not win tomorrow.  I already understood that Bangladesh will not play very well today because of that but I have already said here that even if Bangladesh play so well, nothing can be said until the game is over.  Zimbabwe beat Bangladesh.  I am very happy for Zimbabwe to win.

I agree with you on test cricket, but not so on ODI format. I still believe that Bangladesh are not that bad in ODIs, especially while playing at home. At this point, they are at #2 position in the 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League points table. Only England is ahead of them. Zimbabwe on the other hand has just 3 wins from 15 matches and languish at 12nd position. And unfortunately for Zimbabwe, this series is not counted as a part of the Super League and they don't earn any points from the win.

There are some players of Bangladesh who will blame Bangladesh players for losing this game especially for players like Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das Bangladesh lost yesterday.  But I feel that if they play a little bit better then Bangladesh will definitely win tomorrow's match.  Tamim Iqbal played such a bad game beyond words.  I didn't expect such bad performance from him.  I thought Bangladesh would win tomorrow, but it didn't happen.
