Bangladesh vs New Zealand, 2nd ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details

Bangladesh and New Zealand are all set to lock horns in the second game of their ongoing three-match ODI series. The Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur will be hosting this clash on Saturday, September 23.

The first ODI between the two teams was called off after rain eventually had the final say. Bangladesh are yet to name their World Cup squad as they are waiting to see the shape Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudullah are in.

Both Tamim and Mahmudullah did not get to bat as the match was called off after only 33.4 overs in the New Zealand innings. Mustafizur Rahman was a bright spot for the Tigers as he picked up three wickets.

Nasum Ahmed was also impressive after he picked up two crucial wickets in the 31st over. The Tigers are also keen to see the performance of Soumya Sarkar, who has made a comeback into the Bangladesh squad.

New Zealand, on the other hand, would be satisfied with the way Will Young and Henry Nicholls played. They put on a partnership of 97 runs after the Black Caps lost two early wickets. Young started slowly before stepping on the gas to score a half-century.
