Latest News About Bangladesh Odi Squad New Zealand

Here’s the latest I can share based on available information.

Answer

• Bangladesh named an unchanged 15-player ODI squad for the first two ODIs against New Zealand in April 2026, with Mehidy Hasan Miraz continuing as captain. The series opener was set for Dhaka on April 17, followed by a second ODI on April 20, and a third in Chattogram on April 23. These details align with ICC reporting and multiple outlets noting no chop-and-change to the squad ahead of the NZ tour.

Key developments

• Squad stability: Bangladesh retained the same lineup that beat Pakistan 2-1 in the prior series, signaling confidence in current selections and a desire to give players more opportunities. This has been reported by ICC and other outlets, indicating no changes to the 15-man group for theNZ ODIs. [ICC: same squad retained; multiple outlets corroborate]
• Series structure: The Bangladesh ODIs were scheduled across two Dhaka fixtures (April 17 and 20) and a final match in Chattogram (April 23), with NZ touring for three ODIs and three T20Is. This structure has been consistently reported by ICC and regional outlets. [ICC schedule details; regional news copies]

NZ squad context

• New Zealand had named their white-ball squad for the tour, with some potential debuts mentioned and some injuries (e.g., Kyle Jamieson being rested) affecting selection; this backdrop is covered in several pre-tour articles. This helps explain coordination between both sides ahead of the ODI and T20 fixtures. [Cricbuzz and Wisden previews]
