Bangladesh with another victory to win the ODI series 3-0 conquering Zimbabwe by five wickets (with 12 balls lasting) and progress with one more 10 points in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Super League. Captain Tamim Iqbal contributed with his incredible century for their clean sweep of the third one-day international series which was not so tough to chase the target of 298 runs scored by Zimbabwe.
Tamim Iqbal hits a century while Nurul Hasan scored 45* to contribute to their side 3-0 lead. Iqbal scored 112 runs from 97 balls that raise up Bangladesh’s 299 race followed by Nurul Hasan, who appeared in his first ODI in almost five years, made 45 runs in 39 balls being unbeaten to put the conclusive taste.
Zimbabwe was good with their batsman in the game, despite batting good in the third ODI match, they dropped into confusion with their balling capacities while the hunt was completed with two overs to skimp on.
Zimbabwe couldn’t resist Nurul and Mohammed Mithun from expanding 64 more for the fifth wicket, before Nurul and Afif Hossain went unbeaten on a 17 ball 26 to get the job done. Despite eliminating off Iqbal and Mahmudullah who were unstoppable for their side, Zimbabwe, with their consecutive balls couldn’t dominate on the field.
Bangladesh has also gained a victory in the one-off test between the sides this month. They will now proceed with three Twenty20 Internationals scheduled to commence this Friday in Harare.
