The New Zealand men's cricket team toured Bangladesh in September 2023 to play three One Day International (ODI) matches.[1][2] The International Cricket Council (ICC) finalized the bilateral series in a press release.[3] The matches were used as preparation for both teams ahead of the 2023 Cricket World Cup.[4] Following the World Cup, the New Zealand team returned in November 2023 to play two Test matches.[5] The Test series formed part of 2023–2025 ICC World Test Championship.[6]
Initially, New Zealand was scheduled to play a two-day practice match in Sylhet before the test series. However, after a prolonged World Cup campaign, New Zealand Cricket (NZC) requested to cancel the practice match, to avoid tiredness of the players.[7]
Bangladesh rested Liton Das, Tamim Iqbal from the third ODI while Mustafizur Rahman, Soumya Sarkar and Khaled Ahmed were excluded from the squad. Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shoriful Islam were included in the squad for the third ODI, while Shanto being named the captain of Bangladesh for the third ODI.[12]
On 17 November 2023, Neil Wagner replaced injured Matt Henry in the New Zealand's Test squad.[13]
