Teams & Format
Zimbabwe are steadily improving across formats, with the nation able to prove that they can challenge with bat and ball. Putting together performances consistently is still an issue, but if they can put Bangladesh under pressure with solid batting and probing bowling then they will cause problems.
Bangladesh are the better of the two sides, but they cannot rest on their laurels against a team that will be raring to go. With some brilliant batters, spinners and quicks, Bangladesh will back themselves to get over the line in this one, but nothing can be taken for granted in the 50 over game.
The One Day International (ODI) game sees teams given a maximum of 50 overs (300 deliveries) to bat and 50 overs in the field. The ODI format is the middle of the three major types of the game, with Tests longer and Twenty20's shorter. ODI's weave together the quicker nature of a T20 along with the chess-match like tactical play of a Test. With intelligent bowling and strong batting vital at the start, expect to see fireworks with bat and ball as the game edges towards its conclusion.
Key Players & Prospects
| Player (Team) | Prospects |
|---|---|

| Mustafizur Rahman (Bangladesh) | Having a genuine wicket-taking threat with the ball is key in the ODI game, but Mustafizur Rahman will also look to be economical with the ball. |
Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh Popular Betting Markets
- Top Batter: Choosing how to score runs in the ODI game is crucial as going big with the bat is not always the best option. Batters need to choose the best shots to keep rotating the strike, split the field or go big. The best batter market will challenge bettors to pick the player that will score the most runs across a match or series, with bowling matchups crucial.
- Series Score: Picking the side that will win the series is one thing, but nailing the score across the contest is another. For a three-game series alone you could be looking at any number of scores with abandoned matches also coming into play. Making your choice in this market will provide good odds before a ball is bowled, while you can also wait until after a game has been played to make your choice.
