DHAKA: Tigers whitewashed Zimbabwe in 3-match Test series after winning the last match by 186 runs in Chittagong.

On Sunday, Zimbabwe managed to score 262 runs on the final day of 5-day match of Bashundhara Cement test series.

According to the scoreboard, Bangladesh 503 & 319/5d and Zimbabwe 374 & 262 (85.0 ov).

"Great feeling. The team really performed well and I am really happy," says Mushfiqur Rahim during presentation. "At the start of the series, we had a chat with out seniors about them stepping up. So Tamim and Imrul came through. Our management planned it well and we executed our plans"

“It's been frustrating but you have to give credit to Bangladesh," says Brendan Taylor, "We fought really hard. Bangladesh have been professional and have made it very difficult for us to get back into the game. They had a quality spin attack and we were probably short in that department"

** Tigers need 6 more wickets
