BAN vs ZIM Dream11 Team Prediction and Preview: 1st Match

BAN vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI of the 1st match of Bangladesh Tri-Series 2019. Zimbabwe will take on Bangladesh in the opening encounter at Shere Bangla Stadium in Dhaka.

After a heavy defeat against Afghanistan in the only test match, Bangladesh will be eager to put a dominant show in the T20I Tri-Series. They have a similar squad with only Mehndi Hasan rested for the series. And they will be a team to beat in the tri-series due to strong batting line-up containing Shakib, Mushfiqur, Soumya, Liton, Mahmudullah, and Sabbir Rahman along with wicket-taking bowlers Mustafizur Rahman, Saifuddin and Taijul Islam. They will hope to get some early momentum defeating Zimbabwe comprehensively in the tri-series opener.

Team Zimbabwe has a disastrous run in recent times losing 12 of their last 14 T20I’s and also received a significant setback from ICC. They still have few match-winners in their squads such as Sean Williams, Brendan Taylor, Hamilton Masakadza, Craig Ervine and Kyle Jarvis along with young talents like Ryan Burl. They will, however, miss the services of talented all-rounder Sikander Raza and Peter Moor who are not part of the squad. Keeping things simple, they will hope to focus on the game and give a tough challenge to the hosts.
