After a riveting win again Pakistan, Zimbabwe will be clashing against Bangladesh in the 28th match of the T20 World Cup 2022 at the Gabba, Brisbane.

While the Bangladesh side haven't been able to perform up to their expectations, their hopes now rest on this encounter which will decide their fate in this competition. A heavy defeat in the previous game against South Africa haven't done anything good to their Net Run rate, which needs a serious boost if they wish to remain in the reckoning for the sem-finals spot.

The Zimbabwean side have punched above its weight and will now want to continue the dominant show against the side they got better off in the three-match series this year.
