BAN vs ZIM 3rd ODI Dream11 Team Prediction and Probable XI: Preview

Hello and Welcome to our preview for Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe match. We are covering BAN vs ZIM 3rd ODI Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the third ODI match. The match is to be played at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong.

While everyone was busy with the tense encounter between India and Windies, Bangladesh silently pocketed the three-match ODI series by comfortably beating Zimbabwe in the second match. The seven-wicket loss will be a painful dose for the African nation who has faced only losses in the last few months or so. The last match presents an opportunity for Zimbabwe to salvage some pride while Bangladesh will not want to concede even a quarter.

Bangladesh inserted Zimbabwe to bat in the second ODI after winning the toss. Batting at number three, Brendan Taylor played the steady hand of 75 from 73 balls while Sean Williams and Sikandar Raza supported with a couple of the forties. Visitors eventually posted 246/7 in the first innings with M Saifuddin starred with the ball.

The opening stand from Bangladesh diffused all the Zimbabwean hopes of making a match out of it as Liton Das and Imrul Kayes accounted for a partnership of 148. After their fall, it was Mushfiqur Rahim and Mohammad Mithun who carried the home team over the target. Sikandar Raza was the only wicket-taker from Zimbabwean side.

Team News:

Bangladesh:

Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan will be missing the action in this series as well.
Bangladesh has secured the series so they will be looking to rest a few of their key players for this dead rubber.
Soumya Sarkar has been added to the squad for this match, he will be playing at number three or seven.
Mustafizur Rehman was doubtful in the last match but he played anyways. This match he probably would be replaced by either Rubel Hossain or Abu Hider Rony.
Fazle Mahmood has not scored a run in two ODIs so, his place is also doubtful.

Zimbabwe:

Zimbabwe dropped Craig Ervine to include Elton Chigumbura but he did not bowl and scored only three runs. Ervine is still injured so Chigumbura will retain his spot despite poor showing.
Donald Tiripano and Peter Moor may get dropped from this game in favor of trying out some benched players.
Tarisai Musakanda and Richard Ngarava may get called up in the playing XI.

Probable Playing XI:

BAN:
Liton Das, Imrul Kayes, S Sarkar, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Mehidy Hasan, M Saifuddin, Mashrafe Mortaza, Nazmul Islam, Rubel Hossain/Abu Hider Rony.

ZIM:
Hamilton Masakadza, C Zhuwao, Brendan Taylor (wk), Sikandar Raza, Sean Williams, Peter Moor/T Musakanda, E Chigumbura, R Ngarava/D Tiripano, Wellington Masakadza/Brandon Mavuta, Kyle Jarvis, Tendai Chatara
