The incident happened in the 9th over when Regis Chakabva and skipper Brendan Taylor were trying to stabilize their side after losing both openers early during the game. In the last ball of the 9th over, Taylor defended the short of a good length ball into the off-side bowled by Taskin Ahmed. Rightfully defending the ball, the boot came off from Taylor’s left foot but fortunately didn’t go and disturb the bales on the stumps.
ZIM vs BAN 2nd ODI: Brendan Taylor in the series so far against Bangladesh
Though Brendan Taylor led Zimbabwe lost the one-off Test and even the first ODI against Bangladesh, his performance as a batsman on an individual front has been impeccable. In the only Test between the two sides, he smashed 81 runs in the first innings and mustered 92 in his second outing. He missed his much-deserving century in both the innings.
His fine form was even shown in the first ODI clash. Here in the second 50-over-match against Bangladesh, he looked in good touch where he scored 46 runs from 57 balls. In his innings he smashed 5 fours and one six.
