Nothing is certain in cricket, especially in the T20 format. This team from Zimbabwe lost to Ankora Uganda. Again, the established team like Sri Lanka lost. So it is difficult to say for sure right now that Bangladesh will win all the matches against Zimbabwe and whitewash them.

Still, as a rule, Tigers are considered favorites in the 5-match T20 series and Nazmul Hossain Shanta’s team won by 8 wickets with their best evidence in the first match.

It is not right to think that as the pattern of the game on Friday, the pattern of the remaining 4 matches will be the same, the Zimbabweans will not be able to stand in any match, they will not be able to develop such a rivalry. Every day is new. Every match is different.

So, on Sunday, May 5, the second match at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong will not be the same as the first match. It is not right to think that Zimbabwe will go down to the field again and lose 7 wickets for 41 runs. Zimbabwean captain Sikandar Raja has expressed his determination to turn around and believes that Zimbabwe are capable of playing much better and brighter cricket than the lackluster and lackluster cricket they played in Chittagong on Friday.

It is not a dream. History tells us that this Sikandar king himself has a memorable success against Bangladesh. There is a precedent of making a fortune in a single match. Besides, Shaun Irvin also has a good track record against Bangladesh. So, as weak and decrepit as Zimbabwe looked on the first day, they are not that weak.

However, it has been understood from the very first day that those who are new in the batting and bowling department of the Bangladesh team are much braver, confident and eager to prove themselves. The urge to do well is high. Their self-sacrifice is also great.

Debutant Tanjid Tamim, young batsman Touhid Hriday, pacer Taskin-Saif and offspinner Sheikh Mehdi are all keen to prove themselves. That is a special reason for the good performance of Bangladesh as a team.

If that urge remains intact, if the desire to succeed and the determination to win remains intact, it will be difficult for Zimbabwe to cope with this Bangladesh team.

On the other hand, the batting coach of Team Bangladesh, David Hemp, said that they are not complacent after winning the first match. Even now, the Tigers are not worried about the whitewash.

David Hemp said, ‘Although we cannot always whitewash the opponent. So if that opportunity comes, there will be an effort to make use of it. But at the moment we want to go match by match without thinking about whitewash.

Hemp happy with first day performance. In his eyes, the start has been good and he will keep trying to improve it. Let’s see what the Shantar team does on Sunday night?
