Zimbabwe Women vs Bangladesh Women Team Previews
Zimbabwe Women (Match Odds – 7.90)
Team of Zimbabwe Women were given a decent chance before the tournament began by fans and punters alike, but with the way things have developed in the last two of matches, they are no longer even in the picture. They have lost both of their two matches by wide margins, and resuming their winning ways will be a monumental task.
Zimbabwe Women have failed to score with the bat, which is the main cause for their poor performance in the series thus far. Their bowlers appeared to be in command, but with nearly no score to defend twice in two matches, their bowlers did not have much cushion to perform well.
Overall, Zimbabwe Women have a decent side that, while lacking in experience, is not lacking in quality and capability. They would have to play out of their skins against an in-form Bangladesh team, and if they can do so, they should coast to an easy win in the next match as well.

Bangladesh Women (Match Odds – 1.08)
Bangladeshi Women now have a 2-0 lead in the three-match series thanks to another stunning triumph. Bangladesh began as the favourites to win the series, but they were not expected to be as clinical as they have been thus far in the competition.
Their bowling has been excellent in both matches, limiting Zimbabwe Women to totals of 48 and 121 in the first and second matches, respectively. Nahida Akter was their best bowler in the last match, taking three wickets for 30 runs in 9.4 overs. After restricting Zimbabwe to 121 runs, the batsmen performed admirably as Bangladesh Women knocked down the total with nine wickets to spare and more than 25 overs remaining.
Bangladesh Women have been a terrific team on paper and have thus far done a fantastic job in the tournament. This has been a simple series for them, and they’d like to maintain it that way. If they continue to play to their ability, the hosts will have a difficult time defeating them.
