Published On
Bangladesh beat Zimbabwe by 155 runs in the first ODI at Harare Sports Club.
HARARE (AFP) - Bangladesh opener Liton Das made a fine 102 to set up a 155-run victory over Zimbabwe on Friday in the first of three one-day internationals at Harare Sports Club.
The tourists made 276-9 off 50 overs before left-arm spinner Shakib al Hasan took 5-30 as Zimbabwe slumped to a dismal 121 all out, with injured Timycen Maruma unable to bat.
Shakib s third five-wicket haul in ODIs also gave him the record for most dismissals by a Bangladesh bowler in ODI cricket, going past former captain Mashrafe Mortaza s tally of 269 wickets.
