Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe Previews
Zimbabwe arrive in Chattogram riding high on confidence after scripting a famous 3-wicket win in the first Test. Led by the fiery pace of Blessing Muzarabani, who snared nine wickets across two innings, Zimbabwe produced one of their finest overseas victories. Skipper Craig Ervine and the young middle-order showed great grit under pressure, handing Bangladesh a rare home defeat.
On the other side, Bangladesh are hurting. Their batting collapsed twice under pressure, and the bowlers struggled to finish off Zimbabwe’s tail. Najmul Hossain Shanto’s side will know that only a commanding comeback can salvage their pride. Experienced names like Mushfiqur Rahim and Mehidy Hasan Miraz will be crucial if Bangladesh are to bounce back and level the series.
The stakes couldn’t be higher – for Zimbabwe, it’s a golden chance to seal a historic clean sweep on Bangladesh’s turf, something no Zimbabwean side has achieved before. For Bangladesh, it’s about restoring faith, regaining momentum, and sending a strong message ahead of a packed Test calendar.
