The New Zealand T20I Tri Series 2022 starts on October 7th with Pakistan v Bangladesh at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

Live Scores - Pakistan v Bangladesh - Match 1

Pakistan T20I Form Guide:

Pakistan have recently lost the 7 match T20I series against England by 4-3. Their bowling looks balanced but their batting is a big concern ahead of the ICC World T20.

Players to look out for Pakistan:

1. Haris Rauf- He performed brilliantly in the recently concluded England Tour of Pakistan. Rauf's pace and precision is most likely to find success on New Zealand pitches.

2. Haider Ali - He is a promising young talent who disappointed fans in the England Tour of Pakistan but he will be eager to turn the tables around in the upcoming New Zealand T20I Tri Series 2022.

Bangladesh T20I Form Guide:

Bangladesh have been in an ordinary form in T20I cricket. They performed badly at the Asia Cup 2022 but then bounced back by defeating UAE in a bilateral T20I series by 2-0.

Players to look out for - Bangladesh:

1. Afif Hossain - He is a middle order batter who is currently in the form of his life. Bangladesh will rely on him for ideal finishes in the upcoming New Zealand T20I Tri Series.

2. Mehidy Hasan Miraz - He is a wily off spinner who doesn't give room to the batters for freeing their arms. Miraz can keep the batters quiet for long phases which is a lethal weapon in T20 cricket.

Let’s have a look at the squads:

Pakistan - Babar Azam (c), Shadab Khan (vc), Shaheen Afridi, Iftikhar Ahmed, Asif Ali, Haider Ali, Mohammad Hasnain, Shan Masood, Mohammad Nawaz, Usman Qadir, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Khushdil Shah, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Wasim

Bangladesh - Shakib Al Hasan (c), Nurul Hasan (vc, wk), Nasum Ahmed, Taskin Ahmed, Yasir Ali, Litton Das (wk), Mehidy Hasan, Afif Hossain, Ebadot Hossain, Mosaddek Hossain, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur Rahman, Sabbir Rahman, Mohammad Saifuddin, Najmul Hossain Shanto
