Bangladesh is led by Litton Das in the absence of Shakib Al Hasan who has been rested from this series. He will return to lead the side in the World Cup. Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudullah have returned to the ODI side. Tamim has recovered from a back injury and in the meantime retired and unretired himself from international cricket. 

Lockie Ferguson will be leading the Kiwi side. Regular skipper Kane Williamson will make a comeback in the ODI World Cup. Meanwhile, stand-in skipper Tom Latham has been rested from this series. Ferguson and Trent Boult who played the series against England are part of the series. 

Meanwhile, Tim Southee who dislocated his right thumb in the fourth ODI against England will undergo s surgery. His participation in the World Cup will depend on the results of the surgery. 

New Zealand lost an ODI series 3-1 to England while Bangladesh endured another disappointing Asia Cup campaign. Playing at home, the Tigers have an advantage as they know the conditions. The Kiwis with a second-string batting unit will be tested by spin. The series is a good opportunity for the Tigers to topple New Zealand at home.
