Bangladesh vs New Zealand – 1st T20I Match in Dhaka

Tom Latham will lead the inexperienced New Zealand team. Which is against a really strong Bangladesh side which has more than enough experience. The wickets used against Australia were slow. And although Bangladesh have demanded better wickets. Will they get them? We’ll find out all that and more.

Bangladesh will be eyeing their maiden win when they take on weakened New Zealand. New Zealand decided to give many of their main players rest for this series ahead of T20 World Cup. The five match series is part of preparation for the ICC’s Men’s T20 World Cup and Blackcaps will be testing their bench strength in this series. 

For Bangladesh, who are coming into this match after a 4-1 win over visiting Australia, this series will be a chance to secure another series win on low and slow Shere Bangla Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka. The hosts will be favourite to win on home soil and will be eyeing revenge against Kiwis. Bangladesh lost all the six white-ball games during their tour of New Zealand.
