Saxton Oval

After winning the rain-affected first ODI by 44 runs, New Zealand will be aiming to seal the series against Bangladesh by winning the second One-day international, set to be played at the Saxton Oval in Nelson, on December 20, 2023 (Wednesday), at 3:30 AM IST. Led by Tom Latham, New Zealand know things are very much in favour of them, and if they can keep their composure, it will be really difficult for the Najmul Hossain Shanto-led side to break free.

Facts:

  • Shoriful Islam has 47 wickets in 31 games and has been one of the most impactful pacers in Bangladesh.
  • Adam Milne has 56 wickets in 47 games which have come at an average of 34.55.
  • In 23 matches, Rachin Ravindra has already amassed 767 ODI runs at an average of 42.61 with a mind-boggling average of 107.42.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Chance of Winning

New Zealand are consistent extraordinaire. Despite losing many players to injuries and thus underperforming in the middle part of the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup, New Zealand managed to sneak through to secure a place in the semi-final. New Zealand have been very dominant at home as well, which makes them such a unit that teams would look forward to building their niche.

On the other hand, Bangladesh have been pretty lackadaisical. If the administrative challenges and the senior players fighting amongst themselves are not enough, the juniors have turned out to be home-track bullies with little to no performance to suggest. That has led to a complete annihilation of sorts in away games, and the first ODI was a live example of the same.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Betting Tips

For the kind of form Rachin Ravindra was in, it is very difficult to bet against him. In the World Cup, he was the single-biggest positive for New Zealand and one can be very sure that he is going to deliver once again for New Zealand. Furthermore, Adam Milne has been extremely magnanimous with the ball in his hand and you can count on him to deliver for the side.

Bangladesh Team Form

Currently, Bangladesh are going through one of the worst periods in their ODI journey, having lost eight of the last ten encounters. The two wins came against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, but they lost to teams like the Netherlands too. So you could figure out their future and what does it entail in the upcoming games.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Head-To-Head

New Zealand and Bangladesh have played each other a staggering 43 times in the ODI format, and the former have come out victorious in 32 games. That is a win rate of 76.78%. In 17 matches at home, New Zealand have never lost a game to Bangladesh, which tells you why it is so important to be at ease with things.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Betting Odds

New Zealand to score above 65.5 runs @ 1.87 (Parimatch)

The duo of Will Young and Rachin Ravindra average above 50 and with a strike rate above 100 in the powerpaly. The duo knows how to maximize advantage early in the innings, which was visible in the way Young took on Bangladesh pacers in the first ODI in Dunedin. Hence, be sure that they are going to push the button in the right direction and help New Zealand score above the required mark to satisfy the bet.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Best Batters

Rachin Ravindra to be New Zealand’s best batter (Parimatch)

In 23 matches, Rachin Ravindra has already amassed 767 ODI runs at an average of 42.61 with a mind-boggling average of 107.42. With three centuries and as many half-centuries along the way, Ravindra has proven that there is nothing like a good opener taking the bowlers head-on. Bangladesh will be very wary of that.

Anamul Haque to be Bangladesh’s best batter (Parimatch)

Anamul Haque has scored 1301 runs in the ODI format of the game, at an average of 30.25. In the process, he has managed to accumulate three centuries and five half-centuries, which is understandable from the impact he has managed over the years. While his strike rate of 74.72 is a problem, he manages to score runs - which is the most important factor of all.

New Zealand vs Bangladesh Best Bowlers

Adam Milne to be New Zealand’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Adam Milne’s pace has been his biggest strength, which is understandable from his 56 wickets in 47 games which have come at an average of 34.55. Milne has an economy rate of 5.37, and to put that in perspective, he has a strike rate of 38.5. Going by such numbers, it is very understandable that Milne will have a good game against Bangladesh.

Shoriful Islam to be Bangladesh’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Shoriful Islam has 47 wickets in 31 games and has been one of the most impactful pacers in Bangladesh. Since making his debut, he played a very crucial role. While one could say that Bangladesh didn’t perform according to the expectations in the World Cup, he was one of the silver linings. Trust him to do well for Bangladesh and help us win decent bucks from the betting market.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

New Zealand

It is a no-brainer. New Zealand are playing Bangladesh at home and possess all sorts of strengths to get the better of Bangladesh. In the form of Will Young, Rachin Ravindra, Tom Latham, and Mark Chapman, New Zealand have done pretty well to ensure that Bangladesh’s aspiration of winning a game stays far far away. Further, it is a home game for New Zealand - a condition very much alien to them.
