Zimbabwe decides to play against Bangladesh
Zimbabwe decides to play first after winning the draw with Bangladesh at the first T20I in Harare. The
home team has changed from 11 people who defeated the Netherlands in the T20 World Cup qualifying final, with high-speed bowler Tanaka Tchibanga replacing off-spinner Tony Mnyonga. Zimbabwe no longer has Tendai Chatara and Blessing Musarabani from the T20 World Cup qualifying campaign. Both fast bowlers are injured.
Bangladesh came to Zimbabwe with a wider lineup gap as it rested Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudura and Mushfiqur Rahim from the T20I lineup.

Interestingly, Munim has played as an opener in many of his BPL careers and will beat Shahriar in the middle class. Visitors also chose four front-line bowlers to remove Mahedy Hasan from the lineup.
