ICC World Cup 2019: Bangladesh vs New Zealand; DC\'s Dream11 Prediction

Mumbai: After defeating South Africa, Bangladesh will be hoping to carry on the momentum by registering a win over New Zealand.

Shakib Al Hasan was the talisman for Bangladesh in their emphatic 21-runs win against South Africa. His composed knock of 75 was vital to steer Bangladesh towards the victory.

The left-arm spinner has the potential to scalp wickets at regular intervals. Shakib is set to play his 200th ODI and Bangladesh will try to capitalize on his all-round abilities.

He will be assisted by Bangladesh's spin attack-- Mehidy Hasan and Mosaddek Hossain. Mushfiqur Rahim also played a vital role against South Africa, scoring 78 runs in 80 balls.

New Zealand will be relying on its pace attack-- Matt Henry, Lockie Ferguson and Trent Boult. The pace trio exhibited their class against Sri Lanka by bundling the Sri Lanka line-up for 136 runs. Martin Guptill and Colin Munro will look to replicate their performance which they displayed against Sri Lanka.

Tom Latham has also recovered from injury and is expected to replace Tom Blundell in the starting line-up. New Zealand will have an upper edge over Bangladesh.
