On a switching rain Third day of the first test between Bangladesh and ZimbabweThe hosts showed an admirable resilience and ghost, led by Skipper Najmul Hossain ShantoWhile trying to go their way to the game after granting an early innate advantage. In the collision of Day 3, Bangladesh was 194 by 4, reaching an advantage of 112 runs with six doctors still in hand.
The game of day at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium was very altered by adverse weather conditions.

Despite the shortened move, the contest produced moments of intensity and change of impulse, keeping the test well balanced towards the 4th.
Najmul Hossain Shanto Steers at the second entry of Bangladesh after Early Wobble
Zimbabwe started the day with the upper hand, after having taken an 82 lead in the first entrances. His Duo Rhythm of Blessing Muzarabani and Richard Ngarava had an immediate impact on the new ball. Muzarabani provided early advance, removing the workshop Mahmudul Hasan Joy and establishing the tone for a disciplined bowling performance.
However, the captain of Bangladesh, Najmul Hossain, raised at the occasion, anchoring the entrances with a quiet and composed blow. With maturity and control, Shanto resisted the early storm and opposed fluid blows, including seven well -timed limits. Its intention to fix the inputs and build a base for a greater advantage became clear from the beginning.
Shanto found a reliable partner in Jaker Ali, who remained unbeaten at the end of the day. The couple assured that Bangladesh did not collapse under pressure, slowly rebuilding after early mishap. His collaboration remained firm even when Zimbabwe twice won in the middle session, dismissing veteran Mushfiqur Rahim and Mominul Haque campaigns.
Mominul seemed especially secure during his stay in the fold, collecting 47 vital and adding stability to the average order. His blow was finished by Victor Nyauchi, who appeared as a key collaborator of Zimbabwe with a bowling spell.

Time adds another turn to a balanced test to Sylhet
Zimbabwe will probably let the lost possibilities ruin, the most prominent is a wicker falling capture, Nyasha Mayavo, when Shanto beat 26.The waste was expensive, as Shanto took advantage of the opportunity to anchor the tickets and help Bangladesh recover some control.
Although the hosts may feel -marginalized ahead of their growing advantage, time is still an important factor in the party. With just a few losses on the 3rd day and the rainfall most planned for the 4th day, both teams face the possibility of having to adjust their strategies at small playing time.
For Bangladesh, the plan will be to expand its advantage, ideally after 200, and give their bowls enough time to push a result despite weather interruptions. On the other hand, Zimbabwe will want to make the first raids on the 4th, hoping to wrap the remaining six doctors quickly and to pursue a manageable goal.
