Match Prediction

Bangladesh and New Zealand are set to face each other in the three-matc💧h🍸 T20 International (T20I) series starting Wednesday (September 01) at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.

The visitors will be without some star players, including skipper Kane Williamson, who will fulfil their Indian Premier League (IPL) commitments. In the absence of Williamson, Tom Latham will captain the Blackcaps.

The hosts would be super confident to take on New Zealand, especially after their recent performance against Australia. Further, this time around, senior players like Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das will also be available.

Pitch report:

As it was seen in the recent series between Bangladesh an💎d Australia, the tracks at Sher-e-Bangla stadium would be spin-friendly, and conditions will also offer assistance to the slow b𒀰owlers.

Playing Combination:

Soumya Sarkar failed to impress against Australia, so the hosts could give a chance to Liton to open the innings. It has been already revealed that Mushfiqur and Nurul Hasan are set toꦬ split the wicketkeeping duties. Hasan will keep the gloves for the first two games.

BAN XI: Mahmudullah (c), Liton Das, Mohammad Naim, Shakib Al 𒁏Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain, Nurul Hasan (wk), Mahedi Hasan, Shoriful Islam, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman.
