Do join us for the run chase after a short break

This has been a really contrasted innings. With the bat, Zimbabwe got off to a strong start, scoring 36 in the opening five overs. However, they have been losing wickets ever then, conceding five wickets in the span of five runs. Then, Madande and Masakadza attempted to salvage the innings with a 75 runs partnership. Masakdza hit few huge shots after Madande departed, pushing Zimbabwe past the 120-runs mark. The bowlers from Bangladesh, particularly Mahedi, Saifuddin, and Taskin, bowled incredibly well. Whenever they bowled, they were incredibly precise and accurate with the line and length.

Bangladesh requires 125 runs to win the match

They both have leaked half the amount of runs that Zimbabwe has scored and that too to the tail-enders."
