NZ vs BAN Dream11 Prediction With Stats, Pitch Report & Player Record of New Zealand T20I Tri-Series, 2022 For Match 5

NZ vs BAN: New Zealand will lock horns against Bangladesh in Match 5 of the New Zealand T20I Tri-Series, 2022 on Wednesday, October 12, 2022, at Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

New Zealand lost their opening match against Pakistan by six wickets but bounced back stronger to win their next two games. They outclassed Pakistan in their most recent encounter by nine wickets.

Their bowlers got on the throats of Pakistan from the word go and restricted them to a paltry total of 130 runs while bowling first. In reply, New Zealand chased down the total in 16.1 overs courtesy of Finn Allen and Devon Conway’s batting masterclasses.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, is yet to win a game in the ongoing tri-series. They lost their opening game against Pakistan by 21 runs while New Zealand thumped them by eight wickets in their second game.

Currently reeling at the bottom of the points table, Bangladesh will look to open their winning account in the tri-series. However, it won’t be an easy task against in-form Kiwis, who are coming off winning their last two matches.

Here are the match details, pitch report, probable playing 11, squads, player records/stats and dream11 fantasy team predictions for Match 5 of the New Zealand T20I Tri-Series, 2022.
