Harare: Seabad from the Liton Das and Five goal from Shakib Al Hasan helped Bangladesh secure a wealthy 155-run victory over Zimbabwe in their first three days in Harare Sports Club on Friday.
Liton scored 102 as Bangladesh, which was put in a bat, recovered from a bad start to post 276-9 of their 50 overs before the Zimbabwe bowling came out for those who were trivial 121.
Bangladesh appeared in the problem at 74-4 but the watershed dug their partnership 93 -Lari with mahmuditlah to put it on the track to total imping on a difficult goal.
Afif Hossain burdened with QuickFire 45 of 35 balls while Luke Jongwe took 3-51 for the home team, which earlier this week had lost their one-time test against Bangladesh in the same place.
Regis Chakabva scored 54 in the Zimbabwe response but they could not collect a meaningful partnership such as the busy shot of the price of the main goal.
Shakib became the takeover of Odi Wicket Bangladesh as 5-30 to take its counting to 274, beyond Mashrafe Moraza.
The hamstring injury suffered in the field by Timycen Maruma also meant Zimbabwe was a short batsman when the innings ended only in 29.
The two countries met again in Harare in their second Odi on Sunday.
