Bangladesh bat first against New Zealand

Bangladesh lost the toss to New Zealand and were sent to bat first in their third match of World Cup Cricket 2023 being held in Chennai

New Zealand's captain, Kane Williamson, makes his return to the team after recovering from injuries, taking the place of Will Young.

Bangladesh's skipper, Shakib Al Hasan, said he was confused about whether to bat first or not but ultimately welcomed the opportunity.

A change was made in the Bangladesh lineup, with Mahmudullah Riyad returning to the playing XI in place of Mahedi Hasan.

Bangladesh has previously faced New Zealand in five World Cup matches without a victory. In their recent ODI series, New Zealand emerged victorious against Bangladesh.

Bangladesh XI: Litton Das, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan (c), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mushfiqur Rahim, Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, and Mustafizur Rahman.

New Zealand XI: Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson (c), Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry, Lockie Ferguson, and Trent Boult.
