Feels good to win a Test match after so long. Congrats to the boys. Are we where we want to be? Definitely not but it seems we're getting there with a more settled batting side and good finds in the pace bowling department.
Looking forward to our next Test assignment against NZ

I am not pleased at all.
Drawing series against team like Zimbabwe is not good enough. We should've demolished them in first test and won this series.

Enjoy this win please. It's a test win. And to me, a test win is more precious than an ODI win. Too bad we couldn't win the series

Ehh..good bounce back i guess..Still too much complacency and over confidence lead us to defeat in the 1st test.. The only positive i can think of is Robiul..Now lets carry this into ODIs and win 3-0.

a test win is equal to 5 ODI win. 3 t20 win is equal to about 1 ODI win

We did the only positive thing we could do after that first Test. Perhaps we should accept a tour match the next time. It was complacency and pure stupidity that cost us the first Test. The playing surface was not that different. Robiul got the ball to talk in both Tests, and both Tests had a flat track on the final day(s). We just crumbled to under 150 on a flat deck in the first Test twice. You don't reach 95-1 on green deathtrap.
80-85% of the wickets we took were well earned with unplayable (at least for the ZIM batsmen) deliveries. 80-85% of the wickets they took, we just threw away like empty coke cans. Umpires gave us a few small wickets, but took the huge wickets of Tamim and Ash in the 2nd innings and we still won by 143. We would have surely won by 200 if it wasn't for that, and possibly by 300 if both guys fired with half centuries each.

Agree 100%. If our boys had the same mindset in the first match, we should have won the series. They expected ZIM to lay down and when that did not happen, well you know what happened.
