We’re set for the 2022 New Zealand T20I tri-series where apart from the hosts, we have a couple of Asian teams ready to play in the build up to the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia. One of these teams is Bangladesh and historically speaking, this side hasn’t done too well in New Zealand conditions in the past. Their early exit in the 2022 Asia Cup and their poor results this year itself is a major worry for this side.
On the other hand is a dark horse for the T20 WC and that’s Pakistan. They’re in red hot form and super confident too, ending runner-up at the Asia Cup and then recently losing a well fought T20 series against England at home, 3-4. The first game of the T20I tri-series is at Hagley Oval where only two T20Is have been played before. Keep reading for our complete MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) BAN vs PAK fantasy preview…

Numbers
- Head to head in last 5 games, Pakistan leads 4-0.
- Top two T20I wicket-takers at this ground – both spinners.
- Mohammad Rizwan – 4 fifties in 6 games in England series.
Bangladesh
Ish Sodhi and Mitchell Santner have 4 wickets in 2 games each here at this venue which means a massive spin influence. They both toss it up nicely and that’s something we could expect from bowling all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz. He’s not a usual pick in T20Is for them so wait on the toss before picking him in your BAN vs PAK fantasy team. On the other hand, newly appointed captain Shakib al Hasan is a must have, maybe even as fantasy captain.
With scores of 77* and 18, Afif Hossain ended as the team’s top scorer in the 2-match Bangladesh tour of UAE and we can expect him to hold his own in the middle order, especially since they’ve been having a lot of top-order woes in recent times. Nurul Hasan is the T20 specialist in the side ad with scores of 19* and 35* on that tour of UAE, he wasn’t even dismissed once and we can expect a few big hits from his blade.
Pakistan
With 316 runs in 6 innings in the recent home series against England, Mohammad Rizwan was the top run scorer of the series, averaging a whopping 60+ with the bat so there’s no way you can leave him out of your BAN vs PAK Dream11 team today. We’re excited to see Shan Masood in action too, who had an elongated County stint in England and averaged 30+ in the recent series, and he should replace Khushdil Shah in the playing XI.

With the ball, Shadab Khan has grown in confidence and that confidence has seen him get better in the field and with the bat too. He’s also played the BBL in similar conditions and he makes a good option for your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) BAN vs PAK fantasy team captain or vice-captain. Another person who did well in the Big Bash and got 8 scalps in 6 games in the recent series in Pakistan is Haris Rauf.
