All eyes will be on Chittagong's Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium Wednesday morning, as host nation Bangladesh looks to complete a clean 3-0 sweep of their test match against Zimbabwe. A live feed of the match can be streamed for free RIGHT HERE starting at 10:30 am EST.
Bangladesh had a banner first day to start their first test, shattering their nation's record for the highest opening stand, with 224 in the first wicket.
Zimbabwe will be looking to rebound on Wednesday morning. Zimbabwe head coach Stephen Mangongo challenged his players to be better.
"Rome was not built in a day," Mangongo said when referencing his batsmen's poor performance against Bangaldesh's spinners.
"The issue is that you need to have the skill as a batsman on how to play a turning ball," he said. "Right now, we are in the indoor school where the machine can be switched to the turning mode. Then you practice, until you get it right. Then in the ground, you simulate what you have learnt and cope with the spin.
"We are working very hard to rectify our mistakes and we keep improving. Zimbabwe is a team that is making progress, we are still to develop enough ability to play in the subcontinent. We want to learn to play in Bangladesh, we want to learn to play in the subcontinent, so this is a very good opportunity."
