Match Preview
Host nation Bangladesh will take on Zimbabwe in the first T-20 game of tri-series that involves Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan. Bangladesh will begin their build-up to the T20 World Cup with this tri-series. However, the Bangladesh team will need to bounce back from the disappointment of losing to Afghanistan in their recent Test match. Bangladesh side would be led by skipper Shakib Al Hasan. He is a Bangladesh key player in all format and also currently the second-ranked all-rounder in twenty-20. For the tri-series, the Tigers have made huge changes to the squad that played in their last T20 series against the West Indies in December with Tamim Iqbal on leave whilst Mehidy Hasan, Rubel Hossain are all dropped. Young paceman Yasin Arafat is a surprise inclusion and he is joined in the squad by fellow youngsters Mahedi Hasan and Afif Hossain whilst Mohammad Saifuddin is fit enough to return following an injury. Bangladesh side would be eying for a strong comeback following their last defeat.
On the other hand, Zimbabwe team is likely to use this tri-series to build for the future after missing out on qualification for next year’s T20 World Cup at the same time as their ICC suspension is still lingering over them. Hamilton Masakdza will skipper the side in his last series in international cricket. Zimbabwe team is coming to the series on the back of 1-1 (draw) T-20 series against Ireland. It would be a great advantage for the Zimbabwe side as they played some decent T-20 games recently. Besides, with the likes of Craig Ervine, Sean Williams and Brendan Taylor, Zimbabwe side also got great experienced players in the side. A lot would depend on these veterans to score the most of the runs. Zimbabwe team needs to strike all chords to battle against the potentially stronger Bangladesh side.

Pitch And Weather Conditions
The weather forecast at Dhaka on Friday looks cloudy and there is also a forecast of the rain. Average first inning score at this venue is 50 while batting second is 129. Furthermore, the last two T-20 played at this venue won by team batting first.
Toss Prediction
Hence team winning toss, would look to bat first and put massive runs on the board. We expect the team winning toss will definitely wish to bat first at this venue.
Winning Prediction
Bangladesh team got many star performers in their side and they are consistently performing at the international level. On the other hand, Zimbabwe team has vulnerabilities in the middle-order batting and also they lack depth and experience in bowling. Furthermore, a look at the recent form of players and success of both team in international level, Bangladesh is way ahead against Zimbabwe and are the outright favourite to win this game. We predict Bangladesh will win this match.
