NZ vs BAN Dream11 Team – 1st ODI 2021 | 20 Mar

Between 20 Mar – 1 Apr, we have the 2021 Bangladesh tour of New Zealand and while the former has played here quite often in recent years, New Zealand are usually really good at home. The two will play 3 ODIs followed by 3 T20Is at home, beginning with the ODI series. They will play the 1st ODI at University Oval in Dunedin and we don’t see New Zealand losing here, since they’ve never lost an ODI here before.

On the other hand, they’re playing Bangladesh who have played here twice and lost on both occasions, so it’s going to be tough to win at this fortress. It was back in 2017 when Bangladesh last beat New Zealand in an ODI game but we think this could turn out to be quite the contest.

New Zealand

It’s going to be tough without Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor but the stand-in captain Tom Latham has good scores at home and we’re picking him in our NZ vs BAN fantasy team for the 1st ODI. He’s got a century and a fifty in his last 5 List A games and he’s mentioned that they may give an ODI debut to Devon Conway as well, the latter having 3 fifties in 11 T20Is and recently having a streak of 4 consecutive unbeaten 50+ scores.

After being one of the biggest gainers in the 2021 IPL Auction, Kyle Jamieson has only 1 wicket in his last 5 T20 games across tournaments but we will keep the faith in him and we think his height and bounce will be tough for the Bangladesh batsmen to negotiate. If you want an all-round option, there’s Santner and Neesham but one of the less popular picks will be Daryl Mitchell who can be your x-factor player for today’s NZ vs BAN Dream11 team.

Bangladesh

The side is without Shakib al Hasan and Mosaddek Hossain is yet to be declared fir for the 1st ODI. This means they have limited all-round options though Soumya Sarkar is one person we can’t leave out. He bats lower down now but is a regular bowling option these days. Coming off the most amazing domestic season, we think Mustafizur Rahman is high on confidence and should be one of your bowling picks today.

Najmul Hossain Shanto is one of the upcoming talents with the bat in the country and even though he’s not repaid the faith in the national selectors as yet, he’s worth adding to your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) NZ vs BAN 1st ODI fantasy team today. Someone who we know will contribute in both departments is off-spinner and floater Mehedy Hasan Miraz and we’re picking him as well.
