An upbeat Bangladesh are now determined to come all guns blazing in the third and final T20 International against Zimbabwe Tuesday, seal the series and continue their dominance over the African opponents.
The match starts at 5pm Bangladesh Time and will be aired live on T Sports from Harare Sports Club.
Bangladesh's confidence stemmed from their clinical performance in the second match, which they won by seven wickets.
A team without their senior players were put in a troublesome situation after losing the first game by 17 runs but the second match proved Bangladesh are still capable enough to beat Zimbabwe in any conditions.
The first T20I loss came with some dangerous signs as Zimbabwe batters, especially Sikandar Raza and Wessly Madhevere cut through Bangladeshi bowling line up in emphatic manner to compile 205/3.
Bangladesh's bowling attack which comprised their first choice bowlers Mustafizur Rahman, Shariful Islam, Taskin Ahmed and Nasum Ahmed were severely beaten up by the Zimbabwe duo that sent shivering down the fans’ spine.
However Bangladesh recovered from that loss, especially with their spin tricks as Mosaddek Hossain’s wily off-spin played a vital role in toning down a Zimbabwe surge.
Mosaddek became the only fourth Bangladeshi bowler to claim a five-wicket haul in T20Is, helping the side restrict Zimbabwe for 135/8.
Thanks to Liton Das' 33 ball-56 Bangladesh chased the target down with 15 balls remaining.
So ahead of the third T20I Bangladesh will look to play the spin card well again.
But what would disturb their rhythm is the absence of captain Nurul Hasan who was ruled out of the reminder of the Zimbabwe series with left index finger injury.
However even without Nurul, Bangladesh are capable enough to seal the series.
"We are hopeful that we can win the third game too to win the series," said Mosaddek who was adjudged man of the match for his 5/20 in second T20I.
"It is actually my second five-for in T20 cricket but I can't remember when I got the first five-for. However the second five-for will not fade away. When I bowled, I didn't think that I am a part time bowler, rather I love to deem myself as regular bowler. When the captain gave me the ball in the second game, I was just thinking to tie them down and be as economical as I can be. That worked well as they charged me and gave the wickets."
Bangladesh won 12 matches and lost six in the last 18 encounters between the two sides in this format.
And to extend the number of victory, they need to have a forced change in the third T20 as Nurul was ruled out.
There are chances that young Parvez Hossain Emon, who is the fastest Bangladeshi T20 centurion, could make his debut.
Liton would keep wicket in place of Nurul.
