Raqibul was in great form for Bangladesh

An unbeaten half-century from Raqibul Hasan helped Bangladesh to a six-wicket win over Zimbabwe which saw the hosts level the one-day series in Mirpur.

Zimbabwe began poorly and were reduced to 47-6 with Nazmul Hossain taking three of those wickets, but they recovered to 160 from their 50 overs.

Sean Williams (59) and Prosper Utseya (38) gave respectability to the total.

In reply, Bangladesh lost four wickets with Raqibul (52 no) and Mehrab Hossain (43) guiding the side to victory.

The result leaves the teams with all to play for in the final one-dayer, which takes place at the same ground on Friday.
