The Bangladesh vs New Zealand Test history began with their first-ever meeting in Hamilton in December 2001.

Under the leadership of Stephen Fleming, New Zealand thrashed Bangladesh by an innings and 52 runs in the first Test of a two-match series.

The hosts later hammered the Khaled Mashud-led Bangladesh by an innings and 74 runs in the second Test in Wellington to clinch the series 2-0.

Since then, Bangladesh and New Zealand have played 17 Tests against each other. 

The Kiwis have a dominant head-to-head record against Bangladesh in Test cricket, winning 13 of the 17 matches that they have contested so far. The Tigers have secured just a solitary victory while three matches have ended in draws.

Both sides have registered numerous records during their battles in cricket’s longest format and here we take a closer look at some of those Bangladesh vs New Zealand Test records and stats.

Bangladesh vs New Zealand Test records and stats

Highest team total

The New Zealand national cricket team holds the record for the highest team total in Bangladesh vs New Zealand Tests. During the first Test of Bangladesh’s tour of New Zealand in Hamilton in 2019, the hosts posted a mammoth total of 715/6d in their first innings having earlier bundled out the visitors for 234. New Zealand rode on captain Kane Williamson’s unbeaten 200, Tom Latham’s 161 and Jeet Raval’s 132 to record their highest total in Test cricket history. The hosts then once again bowled out Bangladesh for 429 in their second innings to win the Test by an innings and 52 runs. New Zealand later clinched the two-match Test series 2-0.

Lowest team total

The Bangladesh national cricket team registered the lowest team total in Bangladesh vs New Zealand Test history. After following on, the Khaled Mashud-led Bangladesh was skittled out for 108 in their second innings of the first Test in Hamilton in 2001 to suffer an innings defeat. Opening batter Al Sahariar was the top-scorer for Bangladesh with 53. For New Zealand, star all-rounder Chris Cairns was the wrecker-in-chief with seven scalps. Earlier, New Zealand managed 365/9d in their first innings before bowling out Bangladesh for 205. New Zealand won the Hamilton Test by an innings and 52 runs. The hosts also bagged the two-match Test series 2-0.

Despite Shakib’s incredible spell, New Zealand won the Chattogram Test by three wickets.

Best bowling figures in a match

The left-arm spinner took 12 wickets for 170 runs during the second of New Zealand’s tour of Bangladesh in Chattogram in 2004. While Vettori bagged six wickets for 70 runs in the first innings, he bagged another six wickets for 100 runs in the second innings. New Zealand won the Test by an innings and 101 runs to clinch the two-match series 2-0.

After winning the Test and T20I series, the West Indies cricket team will host Bangladesh in the first One-Day International (ODI) of the three-match series at Providence Stadium in Guyana on Sunday, July 10. The match will start at 7 PM IST (Indian Standard Time).

WI vs BAN Dream11 prediction

West Indies have a slight advantage over Bangladesh in the ODI head-to-head record, winning 21 of the 41 matches that they have played so far. Bangladesh have secured 18 victories. Two matches have ended in no results.

Having bagged the Test and T20I series already, hosts West Indies will start as clear favourites to win the first ODI against a struggling Bangladesh unit on Sunday.

WI vs BAN Dream11 team tips for Bangladesh tour of West Indies 2022

Top Tip: Best batter

Bangladesh ODI captain Tamim Iqbal will be the batter to watch out for. The 33-year-old opener is Bangladesh’s all-time highest run scorer in ODI cricket, amassing 7,826 runs in 225 matches at an average of 36.74 including 14 centuries and 52 fifties. At 9.5 credits, Tamim Iqbal is the must-have fantasy pick for this match.

Top Tip: Best bowler

Among the bowlers, West Indies�Alzarri Joseph could be the standout pick in the first ODI. The right-arm pacer has had an impressive ODI career so far, having picked 77 wickets in 47 ODI matches at an economy of 5.29. Joseph troubled the Bangladesh batters in the two-match Test series, claiming 12 wickets at an average of 16.26. Joseph is a worthy fantasy pick at 9 credits.

Top Tip: Best all-rounder and wicket-keeper

As far as all-rounders are concerned, Bangladesh’s Mehidy Hasan will be the preferred choice. The 24-year-old all-rounder has scored 570 runs and bagged 64 wickets in 58 ODI matches that he has featured so far. Mehidy Hasan has accrued 70.6 fantasy points per match and will be a great pick at 9 credits.

For the wicket-keeper spot, in-form Nicholas Pooran will be the overwhelming choice over Bangladesh’s Nurul Hasan. Apart from fulfilling his wicket-keeping responsibilities, Pooran finished as the highest run-getter in the T20I series, scoring 108 runs in three matches at an impressive strike rate of 156.52. The West Indies captain will be a valuable addition to any fantasy team at 9.5 credits.

WI vs BAN ODI squads

West Indies squad: Nicholas Pooran (captain/wicket-keeper), Shai Hope (vice-captain/wicket-keeper), Shamarh Brooks, Keacy Carty, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Gudakesh Motie, Keemo Paul, Anderson Phillip, Rovman Powell, Jayden Seales

Bangladesh squad: Tamim Iqbal (captain), Liton Das (wicket-keeper), Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan, Yasir Ali, Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain, Mosaddek Hossain, Nurul Hasan (wicket-keeper), Mehidy Hassan, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Ebadot Hossain, Nasum Ahmed, Mohammad Saifuddin, Anamul Haque Bijoy

The Bangladesh cricket team will take on hosts West Indies in a multi-format bilateral series starting Thursday, June 16.

The Bangladesh tour of West Indies 2022 will start with the two-match Test series, followed by the white-ball series featuring three T20Is and three ODIs.

After Mominul Haque resigned as Bangladesh captain following a poor run of form, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has appointed star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan as their Test captain for the third time. Shakib was first appointed Bangladesh captain in 2009 but was sacked in 2011. He was appointed for a second time in 2017 before he was banned by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for failing to report corrupt approaches. 

Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman and bowling all-rounder Mehidy Hasan have been added to the Test squad for the two-match series.

However, the hosts will miss the services of former captain Mushfiqur Rahim in order to make a Hajj pilgrimage.

Meanwhile, Anamul Haque, Mohammad Saifuddin and Mossadek Hossain have made a comeback to the limited-overs squads. 

On the other hand, led by captain Kraigg Brathwaite, the West Indies cricket team has included three uncapped players in their Test squad. 

Wicket-keeper batter Devon Thomas, left-arm spinner Gudakesh Motie and Anderson Phillip have been included in the Test squads. While Thomas and Motie have played limited-overs cricket for West Indies, Philip is yet to feature in any format for the Caribbean outfit.

West Indies will be without all-rounder Jason Holder, who has been granted a break. 

Bangladesh tour of West Indies matches will be played across four stadiums - Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, Daren Sammy Stadium, Windsor Park, and Providence Stadium.

Rain gods played spoilsport as the first Test between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium ended in a high-scoring. After Bangladesh had posted 541/7d in the first innings, Sri Lanka rode on the back of Dimuth Karunaratne’s double century to better the tally by accumulating 648/8d.

Bangladesh came on to bat in the second innings and a certain Tamim Iqbal went on to eclipse a unique record with the bat. By the time he completed his half-century, Bangladesh were 52/2 which is now the lowest total for a team when a player has scored a half-century.

The previous record was held by Australia’s JJ Lyons in 1890. The right-handed batsman had completed his half-century when his team had posted 55 runs against England. West Indies�Chris Gayle holds a similar record. The hard-hitting opener completed his half-century when West Indies had put 55 runs against New Zealand in 2014.

Tamim Iqbal remained unbeaten on 74 with 10 fours and three sixes as the match was drawn during the second session on Day 5. Mominul Haque remained on the crease alongside Iqbal after having scored 23 off 86 deliveries. Dimuth Karunaratne was rightly adjudged as the Man of the Match. The Sri Lanka captain scored 244 runs in 437 balls at a strike rate of 55.84.

Meanwhile, even if not for the rain, the match was anyway heading for a draw. The teams were already into the final day and Bangladesh were trailing with 107 runs. The match ended after Bangladesh had put 100/2 on the board.
