Match Preview
It will not be an easy task for the New Zealand to seal the series in Bay Oval, as the surface here is very slow, and it is familiar to that of Asian sub-continent.
The surface will give an upper hand to the Bangladesh team, as it will favor the spinners a lot.
So, Bangladesh have got a massive task to level the series.#BANvNZ pic.twitter.com/GuYByhKgqN

Another setback for the New Zealand team is due to the injury of Neil Broom. The young cricketer who suffered a fracture during the 1st T20 will be replaced by George Worker.
Kane Williamson will open the innings with Worker in this match, and we should wait and see how they will perform on this slow track.
It will be Mahmadullah who will lead the Bangladesh batting attack in the second T20. The dashing batsman came back to form in the previous game, and the same form is expected from him in Bay Oval too.

Chasing in Bay Oval will be difficult, and as a result, the Captain who wins the toss will not have any hesitations to bat first.
