Venue: Hagley Oval, Christchurch

Pitch Report:
Winning sides have had to put up 300-plus scores batting first at Hagley Oval in recent times, and that could well be the case again on what should be a pleasant day in Christchurch

Team News:
New Zealand:
There’s no need for New Zealand to break their winning combination, but legspinner Todd Astle and veteran paceman Tim Southee are waiting in the wings, and could be tried out.
Bangladesh:
The visitors played their full-strength XI from the available squad in Napier, and it’s tough to see them making changes after one loss. If at all, Rubel Hossain might be given a go-ahead.

Probable XI:
New Zealand: 1 Martin Guptill, 2 Henry Nicholls, 3 Kane Williamson (capt), 4 Ross Taylor, 5 Tom Latham (wk), 6 James Neesham, 7 Colin de Grandhomme8 Mitchell Santner, 9 Lockie Ferguson, , 10 Matt Henry, 11 Trent Boult

Bangladesh: 1 Tamim Iqbal, 2 Liton Das, 3 Soumya Sarkar, 4 Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), 5 Mohammad Mithun, 6 Mahmudullah, 7 Sabbir Rahman, 8 Mohammad Saifuddin, 9 Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 10 Mashrafe Mortaza (capt), 11 Mustafizur Rahman
