Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe T20 World Cup: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details for Match 28
Match 28 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will see Bangladesh take on Zimbabwe at the Gabba in Brisbane on October 30. This Group 2 fixture will be the first at the Gabba at this global event.
Bangladesh got off to a winning start to the competition after they beat the Netherlands in their opening fixture. However, they failed to carry forward the winning momentum as they lost to South Africa in their next game.
Batting first, South Africa posted a mammoth 205 on the board. Bangladesh managed to pick up only five wickets, with Shakib Al Hasan finishing with two. In response, the Tigers faltered as they never got going and were bundled out on 101, losing the game by 104 runs. Bangladesh will now have to be on their toes while facing Zimbabwe on Sunday.
Zimbabwe, meanwhile, qualified for the Super 12 stage by topping Group B. Their first fixture of the Super 12s against South Africa was washed out due to rain. Zimbabwe faced Pakistan in their next game and won by one run in a thriller of a contest.
After electing to bat first, Zimbabwe managed to score only 130 in their 20 overs, with Sean Williams top-scoring with 31. The bowlers then stepped up and Sikandar Raza picked up three wickets giving away only 25 runs in four overs.
This helped Zimbabwe take the game to the last over and they held their nerves to win the game by one run. The side will be riding high on confidence and will look to carry forward the winning momentum.
