Bulawayo: Shakib Al Hasan starred with a delightfully aggressive ton as Bangladesh recorded their second straight win in the five-match series against Zimbabwe.
Tamim Iqbal laid the platform with a patient half-century before Shakib took over to propel Bangladesh to their highest ODI score. Zimbabwe put up a fight, courtesy fine half-centuries from Charles Coventry and Sean Williams, but the target proved beyond their reach.
Bangladesh's win was set up by their batsmen led by Shakib, who provided momentum with an imposing knock. Bangladesh were 108 for 1 in 25 overs but Shakib ensured that they finished strongly.
Williams and Coventry played superbly but they were under pressure throughout and had to build their innings after Bangladesh had made inroads. It's a 2-0 lead for the visitors in the five-match series and Shakib, with a century and two wickets, remains the favourite to be named the Man of the Match.
Brief Score: Bangladesh 320/8 ( Shakib 104, Tamim 79) beat Zimbabwe 271 (Williams 71, Coventry 61) by 49 runs.
