After recovering from a head injury, New Zealand cricketer Rachin Ravindra makes his comeback with a great match-winning century against Bangladesh to secure Blackcaps' place in the Semi-finals of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This result means that India also booked their place for the Semi-finals of the tournament, while the hosts and defending champions Pakistan are out of the tournament despite one match to be played. 

Rawalpindi hosted the Group A Bangladesh vs New Zealand match, where the Blackcaps skipper Mitchell Santner chose to field first. Bangladesh scored 236/9 in 50 overs, and Bangladesh chased down the target in 46.1 overs after losing five wickets.

Bangladesh captain fought hard along with Jaker Ali

Bangladesh had a better start as the openers Tanzid Hasan and captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto set up a 45-run partnership for the first wicket. Once that partnership was broken, as Tanzir was dismissed for run-a-ball 24 runs, the Tigers were losing the next wickets at regular intervals, as the skipper didn't get proper support from the other end. 

Struggling at 118/5, Shanto got some support from Jaker Ali, as they had a 45-run partnership for the sixth wicket. After completing his 50 in 71 balls, Shanto carried his innings to 77 off 110 balls with nine fours, as Will O’Rourke dismissed him in the 38th over. Rishad Hossain also added a crucial 26 off 25 balls, while Ali stretched his innings to 45 off 55 balls with three fours and one six.

Among the New Zealand bowlers, Michael Bracewell took four wickets (4/26) and all wickets were Bangladesh's five dismissals, and Will O’Rourke also picked up two wickets (2/48).

New Zealand lost top orders cheaply before Ravindra and Latham set the game

In chasing, New Zealand lost Will Young (0) and Kane Williamson (5) very early. Opener Devon Conway (30) then had a 57-run partnership for the third wicket, before the opening batter was played on during Mustafizur Rahman's over. Struggling at 72/3, New Zealand batters Rachin Ravindra and Tom Latham had a solid partnership of 129 runs for the fourth wicket. Latham scored 55 off 76 balls (three fours), while Ravindra scored 112 off 105 balls with 12 fours and one six. 

Although both the set batters lost their wickets lately, Glenn Phillips (21*) and the Player of the Match Michael Bracewell (11*) comfortably finished the game. 

Defending champions Pakistan are out of the tournament

With this result, India and New Zealand have officially confirmed their place in the Semi-finals with four points each. On the other hand, the hosts and the defending champions Pakistan and Bangladesh are yet to meet in the group stage and both are out of the tournament.

Bangladesh find themselves in a tough spot after their defeat to India in the Champions Trophy opener, leaving them with little margin for error as they prepare to face a strong New Zealand side in the fourth Group A match. With a short tournament format, an early loss can prove costly, potentially forcing a team into must-win situations.  

Despite a spirited fightback against India in Dubai—recovering from 35/5 to post 228 and making the opposition work hard for the chase—Bangladesh cannot afford further slip-ups. Towhid Hridoy and Jaker Ali provided stability with the bat on a sluggish surface, but the team will hope for a stronger showing from Soumya Sarkar, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, and captain Najmul Hossain Shanto to avoid another top-order collapse. Their bowling unit, particularly the slower bowlers, performed well, but improved discipline in line and length will be crucial.  

New Zealand, in contrast, showed composure after early setbacks against Pakistan. Will Young and Tom Latham struck impressive centuries, while Glenn Phillips' quickfire fifty propelled them to a commanding total. Their bowlers then executed a clinical performance, combining pace and spin effectively to secure a dominant win. Having adapted well to conditions in Pakistan and maintaining an unbeaten run since the preceding tri-series, New Zealand will be confident of extending their momentum and strengthening their semifinal bid.  

*Match Details:*  
- Date & Time: Monday, February 24 at 2:30 PM IST (2:00 PM Local Time)  
- Venue: Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium  
- Pitch & Conditions: Rawalpindi last hosted ODIs in April 2023, where Pakistan comfortably chased targets of 337 and 289 against New Zealand. The venue has seen seven centuries in five ODIs since 2010, suggesting a batting-friendly surface. Three of the five ODIs have been won by the team batting first, with one ending in a tie.  

Team Updates  

Bangladesh:
Mahmudullah, who missed the opener due to a calf injury, will undergo a fitness assessment before the match. If fit, he could replace Mushfiqur Rahim, with Jaker Ali continuing as the wicketkeeper. Towhid Hridoy has recovered from cramps sustained in the India match. Bangladesh may also consider bringing in express pacer Nahid Rana, who impressed in their Test series win over Pakistan in Rawalpindi, as a replacement for Tanzim Hasan Sakib.  

Probable XI: Tanzid Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim/Mahmudullah, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Jaker Ali, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib/Nahid Rana, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman  

New Zealand:
Rachin Ravindra was unavailable for the first game due to a forehead injury, but even if he recovers, New Zealand might stick with the same XI.  

Probable XI: Devon Conway, Will Young, Kane Williamson, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Michael Bracewell, Mitchell Santner (c), Nathan Smith, Matt Henry, William O’Rourke

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

The teams had contrasting fortunes in the inaugural tournament matches. Following their victory over the host nation, the New Zealand team has gained momentum. They have recently emerged as a formidable force in ODIs. Bangladesh, as one of the subcontinent's teams, will hope to cause trouble. They may find Mitchell Santner's side too strong for them.

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

Bangladesh has struggled to make the transition from plucky underdogs to true challengers in these tournaments over the years. We don't believe they have enough depth with the bat or ball to test the Black Caps, so we expect another victory for New Zealand. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.

Bangladesh went through the old-school grind in their first game of the tournament. They lost the game eventually but will be happy with a few things. To start, they were 35-6 before their lower middle-order rescued them with 90s style knocks. They scraped themselves to total and did a fair job with the ball as well. Dubai was low and slow, and India may seemed to have one comfortably on paper but Bangladesh did have their moments. An early wicket, or tying down the likes of Shubman Gill and KL Rahul a little more and they coud have run things a lot closer than it was.

New Zealand though are on a roll. If Bangladesh went with the 90s template, New Zealand beat Pakistan with the GenZ template of ODI Cricket. They started smoothly, focusing on strike-rotation after some early wickets while getting the occasional boundary every couple overs. They kept the scoreboard ticking well and went all guns blazing in the back end with Tom Latham and Glenn Phillips doing a lot of damage. Their commanding manner of victory sould keep them favorites against Bangladesh, but memories of 2017 exist. In 2017, Bangladesh, with the help of an incredible partnership from Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmadullah carried their side home in a chase to seal a Semi-Final spot knocking New Zealand out.

Bangladesh vs New Zealand Key Players

Will Young

Will Young was a doubt for the eleven with Rachin Ravindra around. Ravindra's injury though gave Young a game and now Young stands undroppable. He was as fluent as ever in the first game and will enjoy a surface that gets the ball coming onto the bat even better. 

Towhid Hridoy

Hridoy too dug deep and played a really good innings in the previous game. He has a better track to bat on now and a lot more confidence which could bring even better out of him.

New Zealand start favorites with recent form looking good.

Match Prediction: New Zealand Will Win the Match

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

The three-match T20I series between New Zealand and Bangladesh concludes on New Year’s Eve at Mount Maunganui’s Bay Oval. The visitors are 1-0 up after winning the first match in Napier before the second T20I ended in a no-result after only 11 overs were completed. The conditions for Sunday’s game appear to favor swing bowlers, and New Zealand has a strong group of players ready to capitalize. It would be surprising if the hosts were unable to bring the series to a close. In some ways, Bangladesh has an advantage in that their bowlers have already played on this pitch. They will be eager to get going again in this match. This will be a difficult end to the tour, but the squad will be confident going into this game.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Bangladesh

• Najmul Hossain Shanto- it has been an up and down 2023 for the skipper who undoubtedly is one of Bangladesh’s most talented young batters. He will want to lead from the front with the bat in this game.
• Mustafizur Rahman- the experienced T20 specialist bowled tightly in his two overs on Friday and he will be looking to cause more problems over the course of four overs in this match.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Daryl Mitchell- the tall right-handed batter who will be with Chennai Super Kings in next year’s IPL will be the wicket which all Bangladesh bowlers will want to take in this game.
• Tim Southee- the experienced swing bowler made his T20I debut back in February 2008 and he is always well equipped to take advantage of humid conditions.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Towhid Hridoy, Soumya Sarkar, Mahedi Hasan(VC), James Neesham(C), Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Shoriful Islam

Litton Das(VC), Najmul Hossain Shanto, Daryl Mitchell(C), Glenn Phillips, Towhid Hridoy, Soumya Sarkar, Mahedi Hasan, James Neesham, Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Shoriful Islam

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – James Neesham, Daryl Mitchell

Vice-captain – Mahedi Hasan, Litton Das

Wicketkeeper – Litton Das

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

With the match called off early on Friday due to inclement weather, New Zealand can no longer win the series, and their priority will now be to avoid an embarrassing home series defeat to Bangladesh. The conditions will suit New Zealand better, but Bangladesh has swing bowlers who can take advantage of them as well. We predict that New Zealand will win a close game. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

Bangladesh travels to Mount Maunganui with a 1-0 lead in the T20I series against New Zealand, knowing that a win on Friday will give them the series with one game remaining. On Wednesday, the Black Caps scored 134/9 in Napier before the Tigers reached the target with 8 balls remaining. Despite not fielding their strongest T20I squad for this series, New Zealand has plenty of talent and should be able to defeat Bangladesh at home. The Tigers’ confidence is growing, and the game on Friday will not be easy. Bangladesh has historically struggled with self-belief when playing in New Zealand. But they have now won three games in a row on this tour. Victory in Mount Maunganui will be difficult, but if they can pull it off again, they will have made a significant statement.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Bangladesh

• Litton Das- the keeper batter struck two fours and one six in his unbeaten innings which saw Bangladesh all the way to victory in Napier.
• Shoriful Islam- the young and exciting left-arm swing bowler has had an excellent tour and dismissed Finn Allen and Glenn Phillips from his second and third balls of the game on Wednesday.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Daryl Mitchell- the all-rounder did not bowl in the opening T20I of the series but still hit two fours when batting. He will have been very disappointed with his return on Wednesday and we can expect better in Mount Maunganui.
• Mitchell Santner- the stand-in skipper took a wicket and was the joint-most economical bowler for the hosts in the first T20I and he continues to deliver for his country irrespective of the format.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Towhid Hridoy, Soumya Sarkar, Mahedi Hasan(VC), James Neesham(C), Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Shoriful Islam

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Litton Das(VC), Najmul Hossain Shanto, Daryl Mitchell(C), Glenn Phillips, Towhid Hridoy, Soumya Sarkar, Mahedi Hasan, James Neesham, Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Shoriful Islam

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – James Neesham, Daryl Mitchell

Vice-captain – Mahedi Hasan, Litton Das

Wicketkeeper – Litton Das

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

Few people predicted that Bangladesh would win two games in a row on this tour, but that is exactly what has happened. Shoriful Islam has been a difficult bowler for New Zealand’s batters to face, and we can expect him to enjoy the conditions again in this match. We predict that New Zealand will outperform Australia with both bat and ball on Friday and win this T20I. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

After Bangladesh lost the ODI series but won their first ODI against New Zealand in New Zealand on Saturday, the two teams will begin their T20I series on Wednesday evening. The hosts won their most recent T20I against England in September, and Bangladesh also won their most recent match in this format. New Zealand will be eager to follow up their ODI defeat with an immediate T20I victory at the same venue. With some of their top international players returning, they should have enough quality to take the series lead. Bangladesh were not expected to win the final ODI, but they did so with ease thanks to some brilliant bowling and controlled batting. This is a new series and format, but the team will have gained much-needed confidence.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Bangladesh

• Soumya Sarkar – The left-handed opener was a surprise inclusion in the touring party but he has already rewarded the selectors with his 169 in the second ODI. Now he needs to deliver in T20I cricket as well.
• Shoriful Islam – The left-arm opening bowler is very accurate and gets swing back into the right-hander. He has been the star of Bangladesh’s tour so far and finished as the top wicket taker in the ODIs across both sides.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Daryl Mitchell – The 32 year old batting all-rounder has scored over 1000 T20I runs and 4000 T20 runs. This will be his first international appearance since signing a lucrative IPL contract with Chennai Super Kings.
• Tim Southee – The vastly experienced swing bowler and Test captain will be refreshed ahead of this series after missing the ODIs. He has 144 T20I wickets.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz(VC), Soumya Sarkar, Daryl Mitchell, Rachin Ravindra(C), Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ben Sears, Shoriful Islam

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Litton Das, Tim Seifert, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Soumya Sarkar(VC), Daryl Mitchell(C), Rachin Ravindra, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Shoriful Islam

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell

Vice-captain – Soumya Sarkar, Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Wicketkeeper – Litton Das

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

After Bangladesh’s surprise victory in the final ODI, there may be a little more interest in the first game of the T20I series than there would have been otherwise. Those expecting Bangladesh to go on a winning streak in New Zealand, on the other hand, are likely to be disappointed. The Black Caps often bounce back quickly after a loss in all formats, and with some key players returning, they will be a difficult team to play against. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

On Saturday, New Zealand and Bangladesh will play the final ODI of this series in Napier. The series winner has already been determined, as the hosts won the first two matches, and they will now attempt a clean sweep and a 3-0 overall score. In the second ODI, New Zealand chased down their target of 292 with nearly four overs to spare, which meant their batters were never forced to play unnecessary attacking strokes. Bangladesh’s losing streak in this format in New Zealand was extended by another game. There is little evidence that they will be able to reverse their fortunes in this match.

Top Picks – Bangladesh

• Soumya Sarkar – The 30 year old opener put a very poor recent record behind him as he hit his highest ODI score in Nelson with an innings which included 22 fours and two sixes.
• Mehidy Hasan Miraz – The bowling all-rounder was the most economical of Bangladesh’s bowlers in the last match and he was one of only two members of the attack to bowl a maiden over.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Will Young – The 31 year old continues to post big scores whenever he is given the opportunity in this format. He hit another eight fours and two sixes in the second ODI.
• William O’Rourke – The 22 year old right arm pace bowler had never played in an ODI before this week but will be on a hat-trick when he bowls his first ball in this game.

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Rachin Ravindra, Will Young

Vice-captain – Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Wicketkeeper – Tom Latham

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

Their final international ahead of Christmas in New Zealand should draw a sizable crowd, with the hosts aiming for a 3-0 series victory. New Zealand’s batters have fared far better than the visitors, and their bowlers have performed admirably as a unit, whereas Bangladesh has only had a couple of standout performers in each ODI. We expect another one-sided game to conclude the series, with New Zealand winning again. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.

BAN vs NZ Match Preview

The second one-day international (ODI) between New Zealand and Bangladesh begins on Wednesday in Nelson. The first match was delayed by rain but finished with New Zealand winning by 44 runs (DLS) to go 1-0 up. In this series, New Zealand is experimenting with some new players, but they also have some more established players, all of whom stepped up in the first game. With a 2-0 record against Bangladesh in New Zealand, the Black Caps are favorites. Bangladesh has never beaten New Zealand in an ODI in New Zealand, and the conditions favor the hosts. If their batters can convert twenties into half-centuries.

Top Picks – Bangladesh

• Najmul Hossain Shanto- the captain is an excellent all-format international with seven centuries to his name and five of them coming since May of this year.
• Mehidy Hasan Miraz- the all-rounder has hit two centuries in ODIs and also has over 100 wickets in this format. He will get turn for his off-spin in this game.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Rachin Ravindra- only Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock hit more runs than the 24 year old during the World Cup. He needs to hit four boundaries in this game to bring up 100 boundaries in his ODI career.
• Ish Sodhi- the right arm leg-spinner is scheduled to take a break from international cricket after this game so he will be keen to build on the 3 wickets he took in the Test Match in Sylhet against Bangladesh last month.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for BAN vs NZ Dream11 Team:

Tom Latham, Litton Das, Will Young(C), Finn Allen, Najmul Hossain Shanto(VC), Rachin Ravindra, Mustafizur Rahman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Shoriful Islam, Adam Milne, Ish Sodhi

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Rachin Ravindra, Will Young

Vice-captain – Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Wicketkeeper – Tom Latham

BAN vs NZ Probable Winners:

With Ish Sodhi out of New Zealand’s squad, Bangladesh may have an opportunity to target an inexperienced spinner in this ODI. That appears to be the Tigers’ best chance of remaining competitive and tying the series. New Zealand, on the other hand, still has some very experienced players in their team, particularly in their batting lineup, which should be enough to win the game. We predict that New Zealand will win. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.
