The Bangladesh cricket team is scheduled to tour New Zealand in March and April 2021 to play three Twenty20 International (T20I) and three One Day International (ODI) matches.[1] Originally, the tour was scheduled to take place in October 2020,[2][3] ahead of the then scheduled 2020 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.[4][5] In August 2020, New Zealand Cricket confirmed that the tour was going ahead,[6] and were working with their government to comply with biosecurity during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] On 29 September 2020, New Zealand Cricket confirmed the schedule against Bangladesh.[8] The ODI matches will form part of the inaugural 2020–23 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[9]
