Zimbabwe beat Bangladesh in 2nd T20I by 3 wickets

[Firebreaker]

LOL Zimbabwe has beaten supposed giants Bangladesh in their own home in 2nd t20 to level the series.Bangladesh is a very poor T20 side.I wont be shocked if an Associate nation defeat them next year in WC

 

[Executioner]

No doubt we are an ordinary T20 side. But if we played with Shakib and Soumya don't think Zimbabwe could have done anything

 

[Energetic]

And? Bangladesh beat T20 experts Pakistan this year. Besides, according to rankings, the world's best T20 all-rounder wasn't playing. It's no secret Bangladesh struggle in T20 but BPL is around the corner anyway, so we will be able to see a lot of improvements.

The fact is the more you play against teams like Netherlands, Zimbabwe, Ireland etc. you are bound to lose a game or 2 against them. Which is why the major sides don't play them. Didn't England lose to Netherlands in a T20 last year? despite England barely plays minnows.

Streamed the last over. Happy for Zimbabwe. I think Bangladesh are still an average T20 team and hopefully in the Asia Cup in February we will beat them

Bangladesh played HK once and guess what? They lost it!

Happy for Zimbabwe. It's been a tough last few months for them so I'm happy that they have at least won one match on this tour.

Firebreakers constant hatred of BD is actually hilarious. Dunno why he's so bitter over BD.

Anyway big wake-up call for BD this because Zimbabwe are not a good t20 side, then again neither are BD.

Ireland,Netherlands,Bangladesh,Oman at the world t20 qualifier should be a great group

Actually, by then Bangladesh batting would've improved by leaps and bounds due to coming BPL. These teams will stand no chance against Al Amin, Shakib and of course Mustafizur bowling. Bangladesh has the ingredients to become a quality T20 side just like they are in ODIs. Obviously struggling at the moment in T20s.

Firebreaker...Dude, wake up! that was more than a year ago and Bangladesh Cricket has changed since. Chandika wasn't even in charge back then. England losing to Netherlands is more of a big deal than Bangladesh losing to Hong Kong – anyone can see that.

 

[The_KING]

Firebreaker is just upset that his team UAE are rubbish and has very little chance of becoming a good team.

 

[BDwarriors]

It was 39 for 5 for zim. Waller stole the match. Wellbplayed waller.

Bangladesh basically retained the same squad from the ODIs. Bangladesh A are touring Zimbabwe right now so there was no scope of changing the squad for the T20s. Imrul Kayes and Mahmudullah are not T20 players. On top of that Shakib and Soumya were unavailable. Regardless good win for Zimbabwe. At least they managed to get a limited-overs win in Bangladesh something that Pakistan couldn't do.

Haha well played only if we had won the odi and t20 series could we cover up the various series defeats weve had against bangladesh in the past

I'd be worried about the world t20 if I were you tbh. The Dutch are a bloody good side and are my pick to qualify.

One just recently became a dad and the other is injured.

Congrats Zimbabwe.

18 off the last over. Truly meant a lot to them.

[They celebrted the way we did when once we were minnows.]

Yes there I said it. Now crucify me.

No one is saying you are a minnow in odis. Your team has greatly improved. But in test cricket yes you are still minnows

I saw all the t20 qualifiers. The dutch and afghanistan look like they will do well at the cup

When did Pakistan become a "T20 Expert" ?

 

[Energetic]

We won't lose to Netherlands or Afghanistan. As long as Bangladesh can solve their batting issues by then for this format, then it's a walk in the park. 150+ score with this bowling attack in these subcontinent conditions is too much for these teams. 90% certain Bangladesh and Zimbabwe will qualify from those groups. Zimbabwe will because they just played in Bangladesh and that win will give them that massive confidence they badly needed. Teams like Ireland and Netherlands who have lost their ODI status stand no chance this time around.

People making too much fuss out of a T20I loss where we lost by a whisker, not to mention we were missing two of the stalwarts of our T20 side.

No doubt we are substandard, but losing to Zimbabwe in a T20I should not really come as a shock to anyone. Pakistan lost to Zimbabwe in an ODI with full strength(although i must admit Pak could have won it from there). Zim even beat India B team in T20s, which has some experienced IPL stars.

BPL is the saving grace for us. Will help us prepare for the Asia Cup and WT20 next spring.

Waller is a beast, he's been really good in this T20 series

 

[Firebreaker]

People here underestimate Zimbos.They have some good players like Williams,Waller,Cremer,Ervine and Chighumbura

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Zimbabwe lost 2-0 recently to Afghanistan in T20I
Afghans chased 190+ in the second game against them.

To me Zim, Afghanistan, Ireland, Scotland and Netherland are of pretty much equal level.

The Bangladesh are miles better based on recent performances.

 

[Shafi]

Zimbabwe is full of hit and miss players. They were lucky enough to hit 4 and 6 in last overs and won the match.
