New Zealand vs Bangladesh Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for 3rd T20I - April 1st, 2021

The third and final T20I between New Zealand and Bangladesh is set to take place at Eden Park in Auckland on Thursday.

Hosts New Zealand have already sealed a series win, courtesy of two imperative performances with the bat. Despite their top-order not performing as expected, the likes of Devon Conway and Glenn Phillips have ensured New Zealand's hot run on the T20I circuit continues. Adding Tim Southee's leadership with the ball only sweetens the deal for New Zealand, who are on the verge of clean sweeping Bangladesh.

Speaking of Bangladesh, although the tourists have given a good account of themselves, they would be disappointed with the outcome. However, with the likes of Liton Das and Soumya Sarkar itching to make amends, Bangladesh should prove to be a handful for the Kiwis. Either way, a cracking game of cricket beckons, with both teams eyeing a win in the third and final T20I on Thursday.

Pitch Report

A high-scoring game is on the cards with the bowlers in for a tough time in Auckland. While the dimensions of the ground go against the batsmen, the pacers should get the ball to swing and bounce early on. As for the spinners, there isn't much turn on offer, with the batters likely to target the shorter boundaries. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with 180 being par at the venue.
