Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh, 2nd ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming

The second ODI between Zimbabwe and Bangladesh will be played at the Harare Sports Club in Harare on August 7. Zimbabwe lead the three-match series by a 1-0 margin.

The first game was a high-scoring affair. After being asked to bat first, Bangladesh posted a mammoth 303 on the board, losing only two wickets. Their top four batters scored fifties as the hosts struggled to pick up wickets at regular intervals.

What followed was a batting masterclass from Innocent Kaia and Sikandar Raza as they both smashed centuries and helped their side chase down the massive total in the penultimate over. The Bangladesh bowlers tried hard but could only bag five wickets as they handed Zimbabwe an early lead in the series.

Zimbabwe will be eager to carry forward the winning momentum and seal the series on Sunday itself. Bangladesh will be without the services of Litton Das for the rest of the series and will have to be at their absolute best to keep the series alive.
