I am also excited about to see the tri series(BAN-ZIM-SL) and 3 match ODI series between Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe.Its great that Zimbabwe is coming to my home.The tri series is important for all the three teams.Sri Lanka as they have no cricket after this tournament for about 5 months.They will of course want to finish it having some winning notes before the players go to the IPL season 2.Zimbabwe showed some good fight in the last 3 ODIs against Sri Lanka.Bangladesh gained much praise from South Africa by playing well in a Twenty-20 and 2 ODIs but the 2 match test series was a terrible one by losing innings defeats in both occasion and Bangladeshis domestic cricket structure was under question for this.

Kumar Sangakkara,Sanath Jayasuriya,Muttiah Murailitharan and Ajantha Mendis will be the players from SL who will be watch out for.Though Mendis has an injury,but it is hoped that he will be back in the tri series.

From Zimbabwe Raymond Price,Tatenda Taibu,Sean Williams and Tawanda Mupariwa is really exciting players.

Bangladesh is really looking for performance from Tamim Iqbal,Shakib-al-hasan,Mohammad Ashraful,Mashrafee Mortaza as hopefully they are going to join the IPL season 2.

I hope,it will be an exciting contest!!!!

The tour match Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh Cricket Board Academy will be played in the
Shaheed Chandu Stadium in Bogra.

The mysterious 'Carom Bowler' Ajantha Mendis has arrived in Bangladesh in 29th December and he is fit now.He will definitely play in the 2nd test vs Bangladesh and will be a key bowler for Sri Lanka in the tri series.

With Mendis and Murali both playing, it's hard to see Bangladesh getting as close to a win as they did in the first Test.
