The five-match bilateral series between Bangladesh A and New Zealand A kicked off on May 5 and will run until May 24. The series consists of three white-ball and two four-day games. Sylhet will host all white-ball and the first four-day game, while the final fixture will take place in Dhaka.
The experienced keeper-batter Nurul Hasan is chosen as Bangladesh A captain for the first two white-ball games. Meanwhile, Nick Kelly, who recently made his international debut, will be the white-ball captain and Joe Carter is set to lead the red-ball side.
Bangladesh A have proven international performers on the side in Ebadot Hossain Chowdhury, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Anamul Haque Bijoy and Mosaddek Hossain Saikat. Meanwhile, the Black Caps will rely on international players like Mitch Hay, Ben Lister, Zak Foulkes and Muhammad Abbas.
It will be interesting to see how several New Zealand A stars fare in their first experience of sub-continent pitches and be a challenging opponent for the hosts.
