Bangladesh vs New Zealand 5th T20 Prediction & Betting Tips
The Bangladesh and New Zealand IT20 Series comes to an end with the fifth game on Friday afternoon in Mirpur, Dhaka. After the Black Caps won the third game, Bangladesh won the fourth IT20 by 6 wickets to take an unassailable 3-1 lead. Read on as we preview the last match in the series. This game begins at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium at 16:00 local time.
Some experts were worrying for Bangladesh’s form after they had won narrowly in the second game and then lost the third IT20. However, they were back to their best, suffocating New Zealand in the field, looking like a very strong side.
New Zealand have put in admirable displays in the series considering it is their second string squad. They have shown fight throughout and they have every chance of ending the series with a win.

BAN Team News
Although the series has been secured, Bangladesh may well be tempted to name the same starting XI for the fifth successive game. With the T20 World Cup just over a month away, now is the time to make winning a habit and ensure a great team spirit.
BAN Key Players
- Mohammad Naim - the opener has consistently got his side off to good starts against New Zealand. Only his captain has scored more runs for the team in this series.
- Mahmudullah - the captain has hit the most runs for Bangladesh in the series. He has faced 109 balls and hit 8 fours alongside 2 sixes.
- Mahedi Hasan - the off-spinner may only have 5 wickets across the four games, less than others for the Tigers. However, he has picked up at least 1 wicket in each match and is a model of reliability.
After beating Australia 4-1 in an IT20 series last month, the Tigers have the opportunity to match that scoreline with a win in this final game.
Bangladesh Predicted Playing 11
Mohammad Naim, Liton Das, Shakib Al Hasan, Nurul Hasan (wk), Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah (c), Afif Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, Mohammad Saifuddin, Nasum Ahmed

NZ Team News
The Black Caps have not been afraid to mix up their bowling attack with their batting line-up staying largely the same throughout the series except for Finn Allen’s call-up once his quarantine period was over. Tom Blundell is an injury worry after straining his left quad but is expected to play.
NZ Key Players
- Tom Latham - The captain hit 21 in the last game and is the only player to have hit 100+ runs in the series on either side.
- Will Young - The middle-order batsman has hit 12 fours and 1 six during the series. No other player has hit as many boundaries.
- Ajaz Patel - The spinner has picked up 8 wickets in the series and returned impressive figures of 2-9 from his 4 overs in the fourth IT20.
They have now registered two successive defeats in Mirpur but New Zealand looked like a real team in the latest match.
New Zealand Predicted Playing 11
Finn Allen, Rachin Ravindra, Tom Blundell, Will Young, Colin de Grandhomme, Tom Latham (c) (wk), Henry Nicholls, Cole McConchie, Scott Kuggeleijn, Ajaz Patel, Hamish Bennett
