It wasn’t the best start to the 2022 Bangladesh tour of Zimbabwe for the visitors. In fact, it’s been a poor run in T20 internationals in general for Bangladesh since a while. They came into this tour having lost 0-2 to West Indies in the T20 series and now, they went 0-1 down in the series against Zimbabwe as well, on this tour where 3 T20s will be followed by 3 ODIs between 30 Jul – 10 Aug 2022.
They lost the 1st T20 by 17 runs and while they can argue that they’re without some of their most experienced players, it’s no excuse at all. Zimbabwe displayed great talent while batting and then backed up that performance with a disciplined bowling display as well. Can they aim for a series victory today at the Harare Sports Club?

Zimbabwe
In the last game, all of the Zimbabwe bowlers chipped in but we’d ask you to pick Luke Jongwe in particular because he’s the leading wicket-taker in T20Is at this ground and was brilliant for his 2/34 in the last game as well. We’re picking him in our ZIM vs BAN fantasy team while another bowling option could be Richard Ngarava who was expensive in the 1st T20 but he bowls in the death overs and also creates a bowling angle which is tough to get away.
With the bat, there’s Sikandar Raza who has been outstanding for Zimbabwe in this format for a few years now. In the last game too, he smashed 60+ at a strike rate of 250 and was unbeaten, so we won’t be surprised if he does the same thing again. He’s a good pick as fantasy captain of your ZIM vs BAN Dream11 team because he bowls as well. Wesley Madhevere is another good all-round option while Craig Ervine is reliable if looking for a genuine batsman.
Bangladesh
Amidst the collapse of the visitors inning sin the last game, Nurul Hasan managed to kept striking the ball well and since he loves this format and is even one of the senior members of the team in this squad, we think he’ll continue to do well. Right at the top, Liton Das has crossed the thirties four times in his last five games and he’s quite a dasher in limited overs cricket, and is super experienced among this squad too.

Slower bowlers generally do well on these pitches in Zimbabwe and that’s why we’re adding Nasum Ahmed to our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) ZIM vs BAN 2nd T20 fantasy team even though he ended wicketless with 0/38 in 4 overs in the last game. He did well against West Indies and we’re also picking Mosaddek Hossain because he’s a big hitter and he’s likely to bowl a lot in this series too, getting 1/21 in the last match.
