NZ vs BAN Dream11 Prediction 1st Test New Zealand vs Bangladesh Playing 11, Stats, Pitch Report, Live Score

NZ vs BAN Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the First Test between New Zealand and Bangladesh. After a home series loss to Pakistan the visitors will be looking to pick themselves up for this big tour. Bangladesh are yet to beat the hosts in any format despite facing them in 32 international matches across all formats in their own territory which includes nine defeats in nine Tests. New Zealand, the winners of the inaugural WTC come into this series on the back of a 1-0 series loss against India. This will also be the last series for Ross Taylor in whites and he will want to bow out on a high.  So an exciting match to kick off the new year with the hosts starting as favourites.
