NZ vs BAN, 3rd T20I Likely Playing XI for both teams
New Zealand: Will Finn Allen finally come good? He has looked unsettled at the top. After a golden duck on debut, he tried to hit every delivery out of the park and eventually perished in Napier. The team, however, will stick with him for the final game. There’s also the mouth-watering prospect of seeing Lockie Ferguson and Adam Milne bowling bullets from each end.
Probable XI:Martin Guptill, Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Will Young, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Daryl Mitchell, Tim Southee (c), Adam Milne, Ish Sodhi, Hamish Bennett/Lockie Ferguson
Bangladesh: Taskin Ahmed was expensive on his return and Bangladesh have the option to field Rubel Hossain or Al-Amin Hossain or go back to Mustafizur Rahman. Mahmudullah has a strain and could miss the last T20, while Mushfiqur will be giving a fitness test ahead of the game to determine his availability.
Probable XI:Mohammad Naim, Liton Das (wk), Soumya Sarkar, Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah (c), Afif Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Nasum Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Taskin Ahmed/Mustafizur Rahman.
Combined NZ vs BAN, 3rd T20I Dream 11 Lineup
Mushfiqur Rahim, Devon Conway, Liton Das, Glenn Phillips (WK), Soumya Sarkar, Martin Guptill, Daryl Mitchell, Lockie Ferguson, Tim Southee, Mahmudullah and Mustafizur Rahman
Pitch report: A typical New Zealand pitch without much grass on it. It will have extra bounce for seamers but otherwise, it will be a batting-friendly pitch with an average score of 160-170.
