BAN vs NZ Match Preview
On Saturday, New Zealand and Bangladesh will play the final ODI of this series in Napier. The series winner has already been determined, as the hosts won the first two matches, and they will now attempt a clean sweep and a 3-0 overall score. In the second ODI, New Zealand chased down their target of 292 with nearly four overs to spare, which meant their batters were never forced to play unnecessary attacking strokes. Bangladesh’s losing streak in this format in New Zealand was extended by another game. There is little evidence that they will be able to reverse their fortunes in this match.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Bangladesh
- Soumya Sarkar – The 30 year old opener put a very poor recent record behind him as he hit his highest ODI score in Nelson with an innings which included 22 fours and two sixes.
- Mehidy Hasan Miraz – The bowling all-rounder was the most economical of Bangladesh’s bowlers in the last match and he was one of only two members of the attack to bowl a maiden over.
Top Picks – New Zealand
- Will Young – The 31 year old continues to post big scores whenever he is given the opportunity in this format. He hit another eight fours and two sixes in the second ODI.
- William O’Rourke – The 22 year old right arm pace bowler had never played in an ODI before this week but will be on a hat-trick when he bowls his first ball in this game.
Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:
Tom Latham, Mushfiqur Rahim, Will Young, Finn Allen, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Rachin Ravindra(C), Soumya Sarkar, Mehidy Hasan Miraz(VC), Shoriful Islam, Adam Milne, Ish Sodhi

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:
Tom Latham, Litton Das, Will Young(C), Finn Allen, Najmul Hossain Shanto(VC), Rachin Ravindra, Mustafizur Rahman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Shoriful Islam, Adam Milne, Ish Sodhi

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:
Captain – Rachin Ravindra, Will Young
Vice-captain – Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz
Wicketkeeper – Tom Latham
BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:
Their final international ahead of Christmas in New Zealand should draw a sizable crowd, with the hosts aiming for a 3-0 series victory. New Zealand’s batters have fared far better than the visitors, and their bowlers have performed admirably as a unit, whereas Bangladesh has only had a couple of standout performers in each ODI. We expect another one-sided game to conclude the series, with New Zealand winning again. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.
