Bangladesh will lock horns against New Zealand in a three-match ODI series between September 21 and 26. Here’s all you need to know about the BAN vs NZ series, including match schedule, TV Channels and live-streaming details.

Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka is the solitary host for the white-ball encounter, the last series for both sides before the ODI World Cup.

Bangladesh have rested vital players for the three clashes, keeping workload management in mind prior to the showpiece event in India in October. Litton Das has been named as the interim skipper in the absence of Shakib Al Hasan. Mushfiqur Rahim, Mehidy Hasan Miraz and the pace trio of Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud and Shoriful Islam have been given a break as well.

Three uncapped players– Zakir Hasan, quick Khaled Ahmed and wrist-spinner Rishad Hossain have got the nod. However, the squad is not short of experience due to the return of seniors like Tamim Iqbal, Mahmudullah, Soumya Sarkar and Nurul Hasan Sohan.

Meanwhile, the tourists are flying down to Dhaka with a second-string squad as well to keep their key players fresh ahead of the World Cup. Lockie Ferguson has been named the captain. Regular captain Kane Williamson hasn’t been included as he continues his recovery process from a leg injury. He’s hopeful of making the cut to the Kiwi contingent for the marquee show.

Stand-in skipper Tom Latham, wicketkeeper-batters Devon Conway and Glenn Phillips, all-rounders Daryl Mitchell and Mitchell Santner, and pacer Matt Henry have all been rested. Tim Southee, who sustained a finger injury in the recently concluded ODI series against England hasn’t been named as he looks doubtful for the World Cup.

Uncapped Dean Foxcroft has been picked and is in line for an ODI debut.

Mark Chapman and James Neesham haven’t been considered for selection as they have been expecting the birth of their respective children.
