The Bangladesh women's cricket team played three Women's One Day Internationals (WODIs) against the Zimbabwe women's cricket team in November 2021.[1] The matches were played at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo,[2][3] and were used by both teams for their preparation for the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament, also in Zimbabwe.[4][5]

Bangladesh won the opening match by eight wickets, after Zimbabwe were bowled out for only 48 runs.[6] Bangladesh won the second match by nine wickets to win the series with one game to play.[7] Bangladesh also won the third and final match, by the margin of seven wickets, to win the series 3–0.[8]

Shamima Sultana and Suraiya Azmin were both named as reserve players in Bangladesh's squad.[11] Zimbabwe's preparations were hindered by injuries to several players, including senior batter Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano who suffered a broken foot during T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier in September 2021, and was ruled out of this series.[12]
