Bangladesh vs New Zealand prediction

Against a heavily weakened New Zealand line-up, Bangladesh have so far taken advantage with their batters performing well in the opening T20 international. All bar one of the six Bangladesh players who came out to the middle on Monday managed to score at least 20 runs, which in this form will always give you a big chance to win. That’s exactly what happened, as the Tigers successfully chased down 183 with two overs remaining.

Aside from Ish Sodhi’s potent spin and Ben Lister’s economical spell, New Zealand’s bowlers have struggled to adapt to their surroundings so far in the sub-continent and Bangladesh are cashing in with the bat. Expect another contest that sees a decent number of runs scored and the hosts’ experience in these conditions may well prove vital again. With momentum in their favour, consider backing Bangladesh to come out on top once more.
