Tigers go for the kill

CRIClNFO, undated
Bangladesh will be looking to follow up their comprehensive rout of Zimbabwe in the first two ODIs at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo by sealing the five-match series today.
Bangladesh's batting line-up. led by the enthusiastic Shakib Al Hasan and former captain Mohammad Ashraful, has brought extended relief to the side in limited-overs cricket with bigger challenges ahead.
And therein lies the key to Bangladesh's success - how well they have batted in recent times.
Bangladesh find themselves within a match of winning their third OD1 series in a row. A win at Bulawayo will be their eighth in a row, which will be one short of their record best in ODIs. The visitors find themselves on top at home again, under an energetic captain. This OD1 team has continued the good work shown in West Indies, with the younger players stepping up admirably. It will take something special to stop Bangladesh going up 3-0 on what is expected to be another slow’ track.
In the absence of three leading bowlers, Mashrafe Mortaza, Abdur Razzak and Rubel Hossain. Bangladesh’s spinners have stepped up admirably in Zimbabwe. Spin accounted for five wickets in each of the first two games, with the host batsmen struggling especially against the slow stuff in the series opener.
Charles Coventry and Williams tonked it around in game two chasing a huge total but the spinners held their nene and pulled Bangladesh back to script a win. If the Bulawayo pitch turns slowly like it did in the last two games, Bangladesh's spinners should once again be a handful for Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe's efforts in both matches have been distinctly underwhelming. In the first they gave the spinners too much respect and were let down by their limited pace attack and in the second dropped too many catches (two were absolute dollies) and erred in sending Elton Chigumbura, a noted hitter of the ball, at No. 9. Such creases must be smoothed out immediately.
Zimbabwe can take some solace from the fact that, chasing 321, they managed to post 271 despite four key batsmen - Mark Vermeulen, Hamilton Masakadza, Chamu Chibabha and Brendan Taylor - failing.
Yet the tempo of their batting approach in both innings on slow pitches was all wrong and with the third match to be held at the same venue, Zimbabwe must quickly adapt to the conditions if they want to avoid an irreparable 3-0deficit.
It is unlikely Bangladesh will change a winning unit but Zunaed Siddiqui's troubles at the top of the order may prompt the management to consider Imrul Kayes as partner toThmim Iqbal.
But Zimbabwe really need to bolster their pace attack and Tawanda Mupariwa looks the likely candidate, which means Ray Price, unimpressive in two games, or a batsman will have to be sacrificed.
