Bangladesh cricket team is expected to reach Zimbabwe early this morning to play the five-match Grameenphone Cup one-day series after a long flight from the Caribbean.
The first match will be held on August 9 and all the matches will take place at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo.
Left-arm spinner Enamul Haque, who was named as the replacement for injured Abdur Razzak, has already joined the team in Dubai.
The pressure this time will however be on Shakib Al Hasan's men, who are scheduled to play a warm-up game on August 7 at the Bulawayo Athletic Club, not only because that they are above the Africans in the rankings, but after their historic triumphs in West Indies.
"It is a very important series for us and we are hopeful that the boys will play good and positive cricket in Zimbabwe after their successful tour of the West Indies," said Bangladesh Cricket Board's director and former national skipper Gazi Ashraf Hossain, who was scheduled to fly out last night to accompany the team as the head of the team management.
"I will not be part of any team selection or technical issues although the board has designated me as the head of the team management," informed the former skipper, who had come down heavily on the team after their failure in the Twenty20 World Cup in England.
Many feared of 'complacency' which can be the biggest enemy in the series after the Tigers whitewashed West Indies in both two-match Test and three-match one-day series, but Ashraf believed that the defeat in the T20 match against the weakened West Indies was a wake-up call for the boys.
"You can lose a match but I am sure that the coach and team management have already started their work about the discomfort zones. The defeat in the last game in West Indies may work positively for our boys in the Zimbabwe series," hoped Ashraf, who was the manager of the 1997 ICC Trophy triumphant team.
"The important thing is that you improve more when you are on the winning track and will be more careful and calculative in your performance which, I think, was missing in the last game. Look at the West Indies team who regrouped during the course of the series and improved their performance and we can even learn from that," he observed.
