Zimbabwe have won the toss and elected to bowl first in the fifth and last T20I of the five-match series in Mirpur on Sunday (May 12). Bangladesh lead the five-match series by 4-0.

Bangladesh make three changes to their squad as Mahmudullah Riyad and Mohammad Saifuddin have been included in the squad after a rest in the last T20I. Mahedi Hasan is also back in the squad. Tanvir Islam, Taskin Ahmed and Tanzim Hasan Sakib have been dropped for the last T20I. On the other hand, Zimbabwe make a change only with Sean Williams replacing Richard Ngarava in the squad.

Bangladesh have already clinched the series with the victory in the first three matches. They won the first match by a massive margin of 8 wickets. Tanzid Hasan Tamim was the pioneer behind the victory as he scored a fifty on debut. Taskin Ahmed and Mohamamd Saifuddin did their job with the ball.

In the second match, Bangladesh won by 6 wickets where bowlers performed very well again. Bangladesh struggled in the beginning but Mahmudullah Riyad and Towhid Hridoy calmly finished the match. And in the last match, Zimbabwe showed resilience unlike the last two T20Is but the failure from their top-order batters cost them the match in the end as Bangladesh won by 9 runs after giving a target of 166 runs.

And in the last match, Tanzid Hasan Tamim and Soumya Sarkar gave Bangladesh a huge start with a 101-run partnership but the other batters failed massively and Bangladesh were bundled out for just 143 runs. However, another failure from the Zimbabwe batters gave Bangladesh a breathtaking 5-run win in the match.
