Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 3rd ODI at Bogra, Dec 05 2006 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Bangladesh have won the 5-ODI series with 2 more matches to go. Zimbabweans performed better this time but they did not push the runrate and lost their way when they should have gone for some big shots. Razzak ended up with his first 5-wicket haul in his carreer and has been adjudged Man-of-Match. Please join us for the next ODI to be played at Mirpur on Dec 8. Cheers and bye!
