Bangladesh are keeping eyes on securing the fourth straight T20I series as they take on New Zealand in the third and final T20I at Bay Oval in Maunt Maunganui on Sunday.
The match will kick off at 6:00 am (Bangladesh Time).
Bangladesh have already taken lead of the series by 1-0 following their five-wicket victory in the first match. The Tigers were well ahead in the second game but unfortunately rain came and washed it out.
Now, they need to manage a victory in the final game to secure their fourth straight T20I series win this year. Among the three series in this format earlier, they trashed T20 World Cup champions England in a three-match series.
However, all of those three series victories came at home. It will be their first series victory on New Zealand soil and help them end the year unbeaten in a particular format for the first time in their history if they can win the final game.
"The target is to win," middle order batter Towhid Hridoy said. "Our body language is always energetic as we want to win every match we play against any team."
