THE LOWDOWN
BANGLADESH
Bangladesh came into the first Test as firm underdogs when taking into account the missing players from their squad. But they defied expectations with a fantastic all-round performance, racking up consecutive scores of 300 before bowling New Zealand out for 181 in the fourth innings to win by 150 runs. To get their World Test Championship campaign off to such a good start is an excellent response following a diabolical 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup.
NEW ZEALAND
Despite having plenty of batting quality and depth at their disposal, New Zealand succumbed to the fourth innings spin of Bangladesh when chasing 332 to win. Never once did they really get on top of the Tigers over the course of this Test match. This is something they’ll need to improve on this time around, especially from a bowling perspective if they are to take 20 wickets against the hosts.
THE PREDICTION
You would expect New Zealand to be much improved in the second Test and they’ll need to be if they are to avoid handing Bangladesh a first ever Test series win against the Black Caps. They have the spinning weapons to match Bangladesh, so if they can put more runs on the board then they have every chance of levelling the series, so consider backing New Zealand to rebound in style here.
BETTING TIP: NEW ZEALAND TO WIN
