NZ vs BAN Match Predictions and Betting Tips

The 1st ODI of a 3 match series, is scheduled to take place between New Zealand and Bangladesh at the University Oval in Dunedin on March 20. I have collated the top NZ vs BAN match predictions and betting tips for you.

The Bangladesh Tour of New Zealand begins with the ODI series on Saturday. New Zealand are the current favourites to win and they have won 4 of the last 5 head to head encounters. New Zealand are playing their first ODI this year and have won 3 of the last 5 ODIs, tied 1, and lost 1. Bangladesh have played 3 matches this year and have won all 5 previous matches against West Indies and Zimbabwe. The last match played by these teams in Dunedin was won by New Zealand by 88 runs.

NZ vs BAN Player Betting Tips

The team betting markets from the match have odds stacked against Bangladesh and aren't high-winning bets. I have looked at the stats and forms of all players for you and picked the top NZ vs BAN player match predictions from the game out for you.

Ross Taylor to score over 33.5 runs

Ross Taylor is a prodigious batsman with a total of 8574 runs from 216 innings at an average of 48.44. He has scored 51 half-centuries, and 21 centuries from his games. He has played 23 innings against Bangladesh and scored 1003 runs from them. This is an average of 59.00, and he scored over the target in 8 of the last 10 matches. This is going to be his first ODI in 2021 and we took a look at his records in the last two years. He has played 24 matches in the last two years and he scored 1141 runs from the games. This is an average of 60.05 and bodes really well for our bet.

Ross Taylor has played 98 innings at home with 4071 runs at an average of 55.76. He has played 7 games in his career and scored a total of 505 runs(78, 20, 96, 9, 52, 181*, 69). This averages 81.17 and he scored over the target in 5 of the 7 games. This includes his career high-score of 181* runs which he scored against England in 2018. This is one of the easiest NZ vs BAN match predictions. You can make this bet at Sportsbet.io with odds of 1.85 for Ross Taylor to score over 33.5 runs.

Liton Das to score under 23.5 runs

The next bet is for the Bangladeshi opener who has failed to perform away from home. Liton Das has played 39 innings and scored 1115 runs with an average of 30.97. He has played just 1 series against New Zealand which took place in New Zealand itself. He scored 1 run in each of the three matches and only got 3 runs from the three games. This has been consistently poor performance and Liton Das is definite to score under the target.

Liton Das played 3 games in 2021, under the new skipper Tamim Iqbal. He scored 36 runs from the games, which were at his home, and scored under the target in all the games. Liton Das has played 7 innings away from home, where he scored 120 runs from the games. He scored over the target in only one away game which was against Ireland. This is another one of the safe NZ vs BAN betting tips. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Liton Das to score under 23.5 runs.

Henry Nicholls to score over 33.5 runs

The last bet I have for you is for the Kiwi opener who has been playing in tremendous form. Henry Nicholls has scored 1329 runs from 47 innings in his career, at an average of 35.91. While this seems low to bet for the player to score over 34 runs, his recent form has been spectacular. In the last 5 matches played by Nicholls, he scored 264 runs and got over the target in 4 of the 5 games. Nichols has only played one series against Bangladesh which was at home. He scored 131 runs from the 3 games, at an average of 43.66 and he scored over the target in 2 of the 3 games.

Henry Nicholls has always played well at home and from the 35 innings at home, he has scored 1094 runs. This averages 40.51 and he scored 64 runs in the only match he played against Bangladesh in Dunedin. Henry Nicholls has played 6 ODI's under captain Tom Latham and scored 299 runs from them. This averages 99.66 and is the final reason to bet on Henry Nicholls in the game. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Henry Nicholls to score over 33.5 runs.
