ZIM vs BAN Head to Head Records: The SportsRush presents for you the Head to Head statistics for the first ZIM vs BAN ODI.

The first ODI of the ongoing Bangladesh’s tour of Zimbabwe is all set to be played at the Harare Sports Club tomorrow. It will be the first time in eight years that Bangladesh will be playing a bilateral ODI series in Zimbabwe.

The last time it had happened was in 2013 when Zimbabwe had defeated Bangladesh 2-1 in Bulawayo. As far as their last ODI encounter in Harare is concerned, it dates back to a decade ago when these two teams had played the last ODI of a five-match series.

Bangladesh, who managed to register a clinical 220-run victory in the one-off Test, would be looking to carry forward their winning momentum against the home team. Having said that, they will be without veteran wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim in this series. Additionally, there is uncertainty over pacer Mustafizur Rahman’s participation in the first ODI.

Zimbabwe, on the other hand, are yet to announce their ODI squad for this three-match series.
