Bangladesh Men’s Cricket team are preparing to roar in the upcoming two red-ball test match series against Zimbabwe in their home. This is a crucial series for the men’s team because they met with a string of recent test defeats against Sri Lanka at their home grounds. To recover from that they have planned not to experiment with new debuts instead decided to stick with a core group of experienced players. Though it is not a part of ICC World Test Championship tournament, these matches will play a significant role to revert back the team’s spirit and help to rebuild their confidence & cohesion predominantly.
“We are regularly having DPL matches in SBNS, so we decided to play the test series in Chattogram and Sylhet because their pitches have had enough rest, which wouldn’t have been the case in Dhaka” said BCB official.
