Bangladesh tour of New Zealand pushed back by seven days:

Bangladesh’s ODIs and T20s in New Zealand, which were scheduled to kick off on March 13, will now begin on March 20.

New Zealand Cricket statement said the changes in the schedule were “caused by ongoing challenges in the current Covid-19 environment and the need to allow visiting sides adequate preparation for international commitments”.

“To accommodate the necessary logistics, the Bangladesh tour will now begin seven days later than initially scheduled, following a five-day training camp at Queenstown, with matches to be played at the venues first planned, but on different dates,” said NZC in an official release.
