Bangla Tigers were dominant from the first day itself and went on to win its first-ever match in New Zealand. After that historic first test at Mount Maunganui, it is time for another great BAN vs NZ battle. The 2nd test between Bangladesh and New Zealand will be played on 9th January at Hagley Oval in Christchurch. The hosts would be looking to make a comeback in the series after going down 1-0 after the first test. The Kiwis will be looking to shed off the rustiness they showed in both the batting ad bowling department.

It is also the last test match of legendary batsman Ross Taylor. Therefore it will be interesting to see if he can save his team from embarrassment for the last time. Many eyes will also be looking at the first test match’s hero for Bangladesh, Ebadot Hossain.
