What they said:

“We’ve got a huge chance to make the semis. Again, it requires us to win against Bangladesh and also to beat Netherlands, and then we’ve got our final game against India and depending on some other results. But we can’t look too far ahead right now. I think we’re probably just looking at tomorrow and trying to concentrate on tomorrow’s game and putting in a good performance tomorrow, and then after that, then we can look at Netherlands and plan our way forward from there,” said Zimbabwe skipper Craig Ervine ahead of the match.

“The wicket looks like a typical Gabba wicket. It’ll have good pace, bounce and carry. Maybe a little bit of initial movement early on, but I think a very good batting wicket and fast outfield. You get value for shots here if you can time the ball into pockets. It’ll be a good game, a high-scoring, 160, 170 kind of game,” said Bangladesh’s technical consultant Sridharan Sriram.
