🏏Cricket World Cup 2023: Match #11: New Zealand vs Bangladesh 🏏 - Page 6

All the best to both teams

Adi: "Had expected Chapman to be dropped, Kane to be slotted in at 3 and everyone from Ravindra onwards to drop down a position. But good to see him get more game time and hopefully he bowls on this slow Chennai pitch today!"

Teams:

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

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

Singhal Sahab: "What if BAN beat NZ today? They have quality spinners within the squad and this is Chennai.... " Yeah, shouldn't be too big a surprise but, as New Zealand showed against England, the manner of springing a surprise can overshadow the result. Also, lest we forget, Bangladesh have quality seamers. Taskin's fantastic with the new ball, The Fizz has been improving, Shoriful's a good shout. With spin, Mehidy and Shakib provide the variety. What they will hope for is to bat with 'courage, open-mindedness and freedom'

Tagging Bela as she wants to be tagged for playing 11

Shakib: Was a bit confused (about what to do), but we don't mind batting first. We didn't start well with bat and ball in the last 2 games and these are the two areas we are looking to improve. One change. Mahmudullah comes in for Mahedi.

Williamson: We will bowl first, think its a good surface. Nice to take part in those warm-up games and nice to be standing here. I am coming for Will Young.

Frase: "I actually think the biggest problem for Bangladesh at the moment isn't the quality of the players, it's the infighting. Gutted not to see Tamim Iqbal, a top class player, not have his swansong tournament and then be bagged by his own team for it (even if he at least partially brought it on himself). Can't feel great for the other players."

Matt: "Stands mostly empty should be the tag line of this world cup " Hasn't been great optics, gotta say. Here is some reportage about the arbitrary ticketing process by Ashish Pant and Nagraj Gollapudi.
