Bangladesh will face New Zealand in a three-match One Day International series beginning on April 17, 2026, with the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirming that no changes have been made to the squad that recently defeated Pakistan 2–1. The new selection panel announced the team on Saturday for the first two matches, keeping faith in the same group of players.
The selectors decided to retain the previous lineup as several players from the Pakistan series did not get a chance to play. Afif Hossain Dhruvo and Mahidul Islam Ankon, who were part of the earlier squad, have been included again, with the panel considering giving them more opportunities. The remaining two ODIs will be played on April 20 and 23.
The unchanged squad includes Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Soumya Sarkar, Saif Hasan, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain, Towhid Hridoy, Liton Das, Afif Hossain, Mahidul Islam, Rishad Hossain, Tanvir Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Shariful Islam, and Nahid Rana.
