New Zealand vs Bangladesh T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, NZ Tri-Series 2022
New Zealand take on Bangladesh on Sunday in the Match 3 of the New Zealand Men’s Tri-Nation Series. Both teams lost their first game of the series to Pakistan. New Zealand lost by six wickets on Saturday with Bangladesh losing by 21 runs in Match 1. Read on as we preview the game. This match gets underway at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch at 19:00 local time.
New Zealand will have been disappointed to lose their opening game of the series but will be very confident against Bangladesh. They have never lost an IT20 at home to Bangladesh.
Bangladesh were comfortably beaten by Pakistan on Friday but will be a much stronger side with the addition of their skipper Shakib Al Hasan. However, they will need to raise their game a huge amount to compete with New Zealand.

BAN Team News
Due to a visa issue when flying via Los Angeles from the Caribbean Premier League to New Zealand, captain Shakib Al Hasan missed the opening game defeat to Pakistan. Bangladesh expect to have the all-rounder back leading the team in this match.
BAN Key Players
- Litton Das- the number three batter hit four fours and one six in his innings on Friday. He was in excellent form before an injury forced him out of the Asia Cup.
- Shakib Al Hasan- the all-rounder bowled very impressively for Guyana Amazon Warriors in the CPL last month. His return will give a big boost to the Bangladesh squad.
- Taskin Ahmed- the right-arm fast bowler took his 27th and 28th wickets in this format in the defeat to Pakistan. He was by far Bangladesh’s most economical pace bowler in the match.
