Pitch Report: McLean Park hosted two Super Smash 2020/21 games. In both games, the team batting first scored 170+ runs, while the chasing team faltered. Hence, whoever wins the toss should bat first and aim for 180.
Preview:
Everything that Bangladesh have tried in this series has gone totally against them. After getting hammered 3-0 in the ODI series, they have got themselves off to a nightmarish start in the T20I series as well. In the first of the 3-match series, Devon Conway and Will Young’s batting exploits handed them a 66-run defeat. Looking at the scheme of things, it seems extremely unlikely that they will be able to pull off a miraculous turnaround in the next game.

NZ vs BAN Risky Captaincy Choices:
At the time of writing, only 1.47% of Dream11 users have selected Afif Hossain as their captain. While he hasn’t bowled a lot recently, his batting stats are inspiring. Before this series, Hossain has scored 2 half-centuries in his last 2 T20 games. He will be a ‘high-risk high-reward’ captaincy choice.
Daryl Mitchell is another differential captaincy choice. Prior to this series, he scored 30+ runs and in all of his last 3 T20 matches.
Player you should avoid:
It will be wise not to pick Soumya Sarkar in your team. In his last 4 T20 games, he has scored 25+ runs only once. At 9 Cr, there are much better options available elsewhere.
