Bangladesh vs Australia Prediction, 1st ODI – Who will win today’s match between BAN vs NZ?

Australia's tour of Bangladesh is going to kick off with a three-match ODI series. The visitors will take on the home side in the first ODI on Tuesday, June 09, at the iconic Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Dhaka.

The reigning ODI World Champions are coming off a disappointing series defeat against Pakistan in Pakistan. On the other hand, Bangladesh defeated New Zealand in their last ODI series and will enter this series with confidence.

The Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka, is a highly challenging venue for the batters, known for its slow, low, and heavily spin-friendly nature. In 50-over cricket, a first-innings total of 250 to 260 is considered highly competitive, as the pitch gradually slows down and becomes increasingly sluggish in the second innings.

Saif Hassan, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Litton Das (wicketkeeper), Mehidy Hasan Miraz (captain), Tanvir Islam, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Nahid Rana

Alex Carey, Matthew Short, Josh Inglis (captain and wicketkeeper), Marnus Labuschagne, Cameron Green, Matt Renshaw, Cooper Connolly, Oliver Peake, Nathan Ellis, Matthew Kuhnemann, Adam Zampa

The left-hander Matt Renshaw had a decent outing in a three-match series against Pakistan in Pakistan. He amassed 108 runs in just three innings, and was one of Australia’s best batters. He is known for his excellent game against spin bowling, and can be an asset on Dhaka wicket.

The right-arm pacer had a good series against New Zealand in a three-match ODI home series. He was the leading wicket-taker of the series, picking up eight wickets in just three innings. Bangladesh would want him to carry on the great form.
