The game will also be broadcasted live on Nagorik TV and T Sports for the fans in Bangladesh. Both teams need to win with New Zealand trying to guarantee a spot in the semifinals while Bangladesh aims to keep its hopes afloat in the tournament!
There may possibly be a few changes in the Bangladesh team after the loss to India. However, centurion Towhid Hridoy and Jaker Ali with their sixth-wicket partnership being the highest for Bangladesh in this edition of the World Cup are definite starters. The key question is whether Nahid Rana will be fit after a missed first game. In the case of fitness, he could replace one of the current players otherwise, the same pace attack would remain.
Meanwhile since New Zealand was dominant against Pakistan winning the match by 60 runs, it will likely return with the same winning XI, spearheaded by Will Young and Tom Latham.
An intense contest takes over the spotlight next in the #ChampionsTrophy to potentially decide who makes it out of Group A 👊
