The Big Picture

Zimbabwe's star rises with every move they make in this series, and they want to do anything to disrupt its trajectory. Nearly flawless performance with the ball and just make projections with the bat - one Test and first ODI against Bangladesh - has helped them sell their story of success.

If there is a fault, the fact that they have lost their wickets in groups as well as international match, and hit late Rubel Hossain is the first ODI. Half their order at times struggled to string together partnerships. It had no impact on their results yet, but there is always the risk that you could and want to make sure that they form a partnership in this area than they are at the top.

Bowling asked the opposition of almost all occasions, with sailors eclipsing the spinners. Ray Price and Prosper Utseya might want to challenge their Quicks with a wicket-taking performance of their own, especially after they, with Elton Chigumbura, were guilty of allowing rider to move freely in the first game.

Bangladesh have failed to adapt to the players and some have even blamed for their poor environmental performance. Their hitters had no application to be intimidated by the bowlers and sometimes displayed a variety of shots that would not be out of place in a club match. The openers - Tamim Iqbal, in particular - should be a massive change in the crease.

There is a reliance on Shakib Al Hasan to be the main contributor with the bat and the ball, and while he did a good job, do not expect to do it alone. Mushfiqur Rahim offered her support in the first one-dayer, but the rest of the batting line-up is to start contributing.

Consistency is also necessary to their bowlers, who managed to get some good deliveries, but have not done regularly. Hossain has shown promising signs in his second in the first one-dayer and Bangladesh will have to learn to depend not only on their left arm spinners breakthroughs, but the confidence among the other bowlers to do the job as well.

The Zimbabwe WWLLL

Bangladesh LLLLL

In public

He is the man with the Midas touch and all eyes will be on Brian to see if Vitor never a single error. After a letter of five rings on ODI debut, to go with the five rings stated in the spot test, Vitor knows a magical introduction to international cricket. He managed to reach the swing, even on earth that looks like nothing to the players, and the discomfort of a sensitive length, with the short ball well. In the first ODI, he gave the batsmen any width of Bangladesh, and tight lines meant that he was well rewarded.

As an experienced player in Mahmudullah Bangladesh middle order will have to step in and show its value, after a quiet walk in the test and the first ODI. There are expectations for him when it comes to BAT, especially if it is in partnership Mohammad Ashraful and Shakib but failed to pass 13 so far. He is not guilty of his under-utilization of the ball, and if appropriate, whenever it was presented to him but to start playing his role, he will have to do more in the rest of the series.

Team News

There is no need to change anything in Zimbabwe, after the dominant representation in the first ODI, and are more inclined to go with the same XI. Chigumbura is a man who may be nervous, it's true, if the selectors decide to give all-rounder Keegan Meth opportunities.

Zimbabwe (probable): 1 Brendan Taylor (CAPT), Vusi Sibanda 2, 3 Hamilton Masakadza, Tatenda Taibu 4 (weeks), 5 Craig Ervine, 6 Forster Mutizwa, Elton Chigumbura 7 / Keegan Meth, Prosper Utseya 8, 9, Ray Price , 10 Brian Vitoria, 11 Chris Mpofu.

Bangladesh need to find an alternative to turning left arm and Abdur Razzak can pay the price for an indifferent performance, giving Nasir Hossain offspinner 19 years the opportunity to make his international debut. Although their main concern remains the club is unlikely to get the ax Tamim, taking into account the right of Stuart is a great success just around the corner for him. Junaid Siddique could reach Imrul Kayes.

Bangladesh (probable): 1 Tamim Iqbal, 2 Imrul Kayes / Junaid Siddique, Shahriar Nafees 3, 4, Mohammad Ashraful, Mahmudullah 5, 6 Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim 7, 8 Suhrawadi Shuvo, 9 Nasir Hossain, 10 Shafiul Islam , 11 Rubel Hossain.

Pitch and conditions

Harare should provide consistent conditions throughout the series, which are traditionally good hitting. When temperatures rise in spring approaches, the sun shines, and flattens the pitch. There will be something for the bowlers, but only if they are willing to work hard, and thrown into the ground. Spinners come to ask for help, and is also a hint of reverse rotation, but the country remains true to its reputation as a team chasing the favor.

Curiosities

Bangladesh has nearly twice as likely to win against Zimbabwe to save the rest of the team victory, based on their historic win / loss ratio. They won 53.8% of the games against Zimbabwe, while the CEO of 27% against other teams.

Rubel Hossain took three to four wickets in his career game of 29-lead. Two of them were at his home in Dhaka and the third was the first ODI in Harare.

Hamilton Masakadza played against Bangladesh 35 times in ten years and has a lower average against them for 22.47, but his average of 27.21. His bowling average is much better at 27.08 against 33.18 in total.
