ZIM vs BAN Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 1st, Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh T20I series 2026

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for the 1st T20I of the Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh T20I series 2026 between ZIM vs BAN to be played in Bulawayo.

Zimbabwe hammered Bangladesh in the one-off test and then beat them in the three-match ODI series. Though Bangladesh recorded a consolation win in the third match, largely because Zimbabwe rested their key players. Now, these two sides are set to take on each other in three T20Is.

The first game is scheduled to kick off at 4 PM IST on Wednesday at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo. Sikandar Raza will lead the hosts, whereas Towhid Hridoy will lead Bangladesh in the absence of Litton Das.

Mustafizur Rahman is another name missing for the visitors. The batting has been big concern for Bangladesh in this tour so far. That is where players like Tanzid Hasan, Towhid, and Parvez Hossain need to take more responsibilities. Both sides have strong bowling lineups, and we might see a low-scoring thriller on Wednesday.
