BAN vs ZIM Team Previews
Bangladesh
In the second T20I game, the Bangladesh bowlers Rishad and Taskin restricted the Zimbabwe batting charge to ensure their batters were chasing a moderate total. As expected, the Bangladesh batters chased the target of 139 runs with nine deliveries to go. Towhid Hridoy kept his nerve in an intriguing chase by Bangladesh towards the end. He struck crucial boundaries to take his side to a win with six wickets and take a 2-0 lead in the series. Hridoy hit three fours and two sixes in a 25-ball 37.
This win was made possible mainly by the Bangladesh bowlers, though. They restricted Bangla batters for the second game in a row. The top bowler was Taskin Ahmed. He picked up a couple of wickets for 18 runs from his four overs. The leggie Rishad Hossain also dealt some solid blows to the Zimbabwe middle order. Bangladesh was off to a good start during their chase. Litton Das and Tanzid Hasan provided a good launching pad for the middle order.

Zimbabwe
The Zimbabwe top order was sluggish at the start of their innings in the powerplay. Even though they lost a single wicket to Tadiwanshe Marumani in the powerplay, they could not accelerate. Just 22 runs came in the first six overs of the game. They could not hit a single boundary in the powerplay. Finally, Joylord struck a four in the seventh over but fell quickly after that. Due to the constant pressure from the Bangladesh bowlers, the Zimbabwe score was reduced to 42 for five in the eleventh over, and they were looking at a small total in the end.
It was Johnathan Campbell who provided the much-needed impetus for the Zim innings. Although he was dropped early during his innings, he scored 45 runs from just 24 balls with three sixes and four fours. Campbell added 73 runs for the 6th wicket with Bennett. After the dismissal of Campbell, Bennett provided an excellent finish to the Zim innings, taking 18 runs in the last over. Bennett hit 44 runs from 29 balls. Although Bangladesh appeared to be cruising along at one stage, the Zimbabwe bowler Luke Jongwe picked up a couple of wickets to cause a bit of a flutter in the Bangladesh camp.
