After a thumping victory in the ODI series, Bangladesh will take on the hosts Zimbabwe in the first T20I at the Harare Sports Club, on July 22.
Bangladesh has dominated the tour so far and will look to continue the momentum. They will be without the services of skipper Tamim Iqbal, who sustained a knee injury. They will bank on the likes of veteran Shakib Al Hasan, skipper Mahmudullah and the inform Liton Das. Das was the leading run-scorer for Bangladesh in the recently concluded ODI series. He scored 155 runs in three matches at an average of 51.67.

Sean Williams and Craig Ervine continue to be unavailable for the side, Regis Chakabva was impressive in the ODI series with 164 runs in three matches at an average of 54.67.
