Captain Mahmudullah warned his invited team from Bangladesh that it cannot be complacent against a weakened New Zealand, which will enter its five-game Twenty20 series on Wednesday.
New Zealand does not have any of its Twenty20 World Cup squads selected for its first tour of Bangladesh since 2013. Tom Latham is the substitute captain and Glenn Pocknall is the substitute coach.
« New Zealand do not have first-choice players, but they are well organized and an extremely disciplined team, » said Mahmudullah. « They are a team that does a lot of homework in terms of stamina and opponents. As I have seen, they always try to implement their plan well. »
He wants the same urgency and hunger that his players are against Australia showed they beat Bangladesh 4-1 a month ago, including at home.
« T20 is such a format where you always have to be positive and play well from the first ball, » he said.
« We were positive against Australia from the first ball and that gave us the advantage in this series. We were hungry to win. I know our T20 record against New Zealand. I think we should show the hunger against New Zealand as well positive vibes and we are optimistic to win it. ”
Bangladesh is heavily favored to beat New Zealand for the first time in this format, and the home side are not far from their strategy in the same paradisiacal pitches at Shere Bangla National Stadium against the Au stralier deviate.

New Zealand only has three players with more than 10 T20 – Latham, Colin de Grandhomme and Scott Kuggleleijn – and three others who could make their international debut. They all have a chance to shine as injury substitutes for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
« This is a slightly younger group. There is a bit of experience here so I’ll try to get as close to these guys as possible Most of the guys have played T20s for New Zealand but probably not as much as they’d like. We have to enjoy ourselves out there and hold onto a brand of cricket that we believe will do well in these conditions Our goal is to win the series. «
