Hello cricket fans and welcome to Newshub's live coverage of the first match of New Zealand's tour of Bangladesh.
First up - the first T20 international from Dhaka with a makeshift Blackcaps side looking to get the better of a very good Bangladesh side that is always comfortable playing in their own conditions.
A recent 4-1 series win against Australia and nine of the last 10 at home against New Zealand is testament to the challenge ahead.
First ball tonight from 10pm.
Bangladesh (probable): Mohammad Naim, Liton Das, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah (capt), Nurul Hasan (wk), Afif Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Nasum Ahmed
The Blackcaps will make at least 10 changes to the side that last played a T20 against Australia earlier this year.
Ajaz Patel is expected to lead a three-man spin attack, which would mean debuts for Cole McConchie and Rachin Ravindra.
New Zealand (probable): Henry Nicholls, Will Young, Rachin Ravindra, Tom Latham (capt & wk), Tom Blundell, Cole McConchie, Colin de Grandhomme, Doug Bracewell, Scott Kuggeleijn, Hamish Bennett, Ajaz Patel
