BAN vs ZIM, 28th Match Preview

Bangladesh and Zimbabwe go head to head on Sunday afternoon at The Gabba in Match 28 of the 2022 T20 World Cup. Bangladesh beat Netherlands by nine runs but were then thrashed by South Africa by 104 runs. Zimbabwe got a no-result against South Africa before beating Pakistan by one run on Thursday. Bangladesh have not been overly impressive so far in the tournament with their only win coming in a tight contest with Netherlands in Match 17. However, they will see this clash as another winnable game. Zimbabwe have raised expectations after their last ball victory over Pakistan in Perth on Thursday, but it will require another big performance if they are to beat Bangladesh in Brisbane.

BAN vs ZIM 28th Match Probable Winners:

Zimbabwe looked to be on track for defeat against Pakistan before Sikandar Raza took two wickets in an over. If their top players can again produce at key moments then they will make it very hard for Bangladesh. Both teams are still in with a chance of finishing in the top two in this group but a win in this game will be crucial to their chances. We predict that it will be another close contest for Zimbabwe but we expect Bangladesh to get the win in Brisbane. Considering the team combination, Bangladesh is expected to win this match.
