­Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe Prediction

Zimbabwe, after their historic win at Sylhet, will be going into this game with their confidence sky high. Bangladesh, on the flipside, will be worried about their batting as they kept on losing wickets at regular intervals in each innings of the last test. Also, there will be more pressure on them as they need to win this game in order to save the series. The visitors surprised everyone with their impressive performance last time but it remains to be seen whether they can follow that up with another strong showing at Dhaka. Bangladesh were clearly below par in the first test but we expect them to shrug off the disappointment of that heavy defeat and bounce back to square the series.

Final Verdict: Back Bangladesh to beat Zimbabwe in the second test at 1.41 on Betfair and 1.36 on both Betway and Bet365.
