On Tuesday, the second T20I will be played between New Zealand and Bangladesh at McLean Park in Napier. On Sunday, the Kiwis added to their winning streak with another professional result. Devon Conway, who scored a well-constructed fifty, was instrumental in their major victory. New Zealand will be looking to win the series, and their bowlers will be in peak condition.
Bangladesh has shown glimpses of what they are capable of even without Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan. Liton Das and captain Mahmudullah Riyad, who is due for a significant knock in the middle order, will take a lot of responsibility. In any case, another thrilling T20I match awaits at McLean Park, with both teams desperate for a series-clinching victory.
Weather
During match time at McLean Park, the temperature will be about 19 degrees Celsius, with humidity levels forecast to be over 80%. The chances of rain interruption are very high in this match.
Pitch
The pitch at McLean Park is fantastic for batting. However, with it being the second match of the day at the venue, there should be something for the bowlers. Aside from extra swing and bounce for the pacers early on, the spinners should get the ball to grip and turn, resulting in a strong bat-ball battle. Both teams will chase after winning the toss, b, with 160-170 being the venue’s par.
