Bangladesh’s bowlers have done half the work against Zimbabwe in the beginning. Zimbabwe lost 7 wickets for 41 runs in the cannon of Taskin Ahmed and Mohammad Saifuddin and Sheikh Mahdi. In the end, the tourists got a capital of 124 runs, but Bangladesh topped it with power. Anointed opener Tanjid Tamim scored fifty (67 off 47 balls). And Tawhid Hridoy scored 33 runs off 18 balls with a flurry of batting.
Pacer Taskin who took 3 wickets for 14 runs won the man of the match award after Tanjid’s 67 runs. Bangladesh’s victory was made easy because of the bowling, which is why Taskin won the Man of the Match award.
Taskin also told the secret behind the great performance after the match. In his speech to receive the man of the match award, the Bangladesh pacer said how much the practice before the start of the series has helped in improving the performance.
“First of all, we got a great win today and got off to a great start bowling,” Taskin said. We got the basics right. So we got the award. Everyone has been training really hard the last few weeks and getting those results.’
Noting that the bowlers helped each other, Taskin added, ‘Everyone worked hard to improve their bowling. Practiced with 110 percent. We played a good match today and look forward to doing better in the future.’
Among the 3 wickets that Taskin took in yesterday’s match, he dismissed Clive Madande, the highest run scorer of the Zimbabwean innings, for 43 off 39 balls. Apart from this, this right-handed pacer returned Sean Williams and Ryan Barle with golden ducks.
