We are all set to begin Day 1! The two umpires make their way out in the middle followed by the New Zealand players who spread out to take their respective field positions. Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Zakir Hasan are the two openers for Bangladesh. Tim Southee has the new ball in hand and is raring to go. Let's play...

Tim Southee, the captain of New Zealand says they would have batted first as well. Adds that it gets tougher to bat last in this part of the world. Tells that Kane Williamson has been unbelievable for them for a long time while Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips have also contributed well. Says there are other batters as well who are hungry for runs. Informs they have made one change as Mitchell Santner comes in for Ish Sodhi.

Najmul Hossain Shanto, the skipper of Bangladesh says that they will bat first. Adds that it is a fresh wicket and they will do well if the batters take responsibility. Tells that they performed well in the last game but this is a new game and if they bat well, they should not have any problems here. Informs they are unchanged.

PITCH REPORT - HD Ackerman is pitchside. He says that it is overcast and there is a bit of moisture around which could help the seamers early on. Tells that there are a lot of grass cuttings but he expects there to be grip for the spinners. Says that all is not lost if you are batting second but ensure that you are chasing something not that big as the surface will get worse as the game progresses.

Saqlain Mushtaq, the spin bowling consultant for New Zealand is up for a chat. He says that the side should have been a bit more patient while bowling as they need to bowl on a particular spot for a longer duration to extract something from the surface. Adds that he praises the Bangladeshi side for being patient enough as they bowled really well. Mentions that he has shared his thoughts with the batting unit as well in order to how a spinner thinks on such a track.
