The Gaddafi Stadium will host both the ODIs, on Saturday and Monday.

'We have two one-dayers against Bangladesh and our aim is to win both of them. The T20 series was our season-opener and we needed that win to get the momentum. Now, we have gotten it, we will look to make the most of it in the ODI series,' Bismah said in pre-match talk with media here on Friday.

'Our one-day team has been doing well of late and the girls are ready to confront all the challenges that come their way. It was evident in the T20 series when everyone stood up and delivered in pressure moments.'

Rumana said: 'There's a little worry in the camp after the T20 series defeat but we are looking at the positives.

'We have good performers in both departments but my observation is that our main strength will be our bowling attack.'
