The Bangladesh cricket team toured New Zealand in March and April 2021 to play three Twenty20 International (T20I) and three One Day International (ODI) matches.[1] Originally, the tour was scheduled to take place in October 2020,[2][3] ahead of the then scheduled ICC Men's T20 World Cup.[4][5] In August 2020, New Zealand Cricket confirmed that the tour was going ahead,[6] and were working with their government to comply with biosecurity during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] On 29 September 2020, New Zealand Cricket confirmed the schedule against Bangladesh.[8] The ODI matches formed part of the inaugural 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[9]
On 4 February 2021, the tour dates were pushed back by one week, to allow for enough preparation and the logistics for quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10] The T20I matches were played as double-headers alongside the women's fixtures between New Zealand and Australia.[11]
Ahead of the tour, New Zealand's captain Kane Williamson was ruled out of the ODI matches due to an elbow injury,[12] with Tom Latham named as captain in his place.[13] New Zealand won the first two ODIs, with Latham scoring an unbeaten century in the second match, winning the series with a game to spare.[14] New Zealand won the third and final ODI by 164 runs, to win the series 3–0.[15] New Zealand won the first two T20I matches to win the series with a game to spare.[16] New Zealand won the third T20I by 65 runs, to also win the series 3–0.[17]
Squads
[edit]
Ross Taylor was ruled out of the first ODI and was replaced by Mark Chapman in New Zealand's squad.[22] Bangladesh's Tamim Iqbal opted out of the T20I matches for personal reasons.[23] Hasan Mahmud suffered an injury during the first ODI and was ruled out of Bangladesh's T20I squad.[24]
