NZ vs BAN Day 1 Test 2 Predictions & Betting Tips

New Zealand will cross swords with Bangladesh in the second Test match as Bangladesh Tour New Zealand as a part of the World Test Championship. The matches are scheduled to be played at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on January 9, Sunday. I have handpicked three of the best betting tips from the NZ vs BAN Day 1 match prediction.

Bangladesh registered their first win in any format of the game in New Zealand and gave them a 1-0 lead in the two-match series with the second match starting in Christchurch on Sunday. Bangladesh ended their long wait for their first victory over New Zealand in New Zealand. The visitors led by Mominul Haque stunned the World Test Champions by 8 wickets in Mount Maunganui on Wednesday. The victory in the New Year's Test is also the first ever win over New Zealand in the longest format of the game in 16 attempts. Bangladesh cruised to victory in the first session on Day 5 with Ebadots Hossain's 6 wicket-haul and a collective batting effort in the first innings. Bangladesh dismissed the Kiwis for 169 on day five of the first Test match. The host will be eager to bounce back from their first home Test defeat while Bangladesh will make efforts to maintain their winning momentum in the New Zealand vs Bangladesh head-to-head second test match on its Day 1.

NZ vs BAN Player Bet:

If you have followed my lead on the first Test match you would have earned some handsome cash from these two players- Devon Conway and Monimul Haque.

Devon Conway To Score Over 38.5 Runs

New Zealand had posted an impressive 328 runs in their first innings with Devon Conway top scoring 122. Kiwi's top order batsman has shown us why he belongs in the team. Conway played his debut Test cricket in the 2021 season and has been thoroughly impressive in the 4 matches played so far. He has been in spectacular form this entire year, racking up 514 runs from the 8 innings he played, averaging impressively at 64.25 which makes him New Zealand's top Test run scorer. While this is set to be his first Test series batting against Bangladesh, the Kiwi batsman has been remarkable for his side. Having said that, Conway has a total of 135 runs to his name from the two innings played against the Bengal Tigers till date.

The 30-year-old, Black Caps batsman is impossible to ignore considering his form with the bat across all three formats. Conway, has been a prolific run scorer across all formats in domestic cricket as well. In the Test series played earlier to this, Conway went on to score 200 & 80 against England in the first innings of the two test matches followed by a 54 against India. The Kiwis power hitter will strike again in the second test match to restore victory for the host. Pari Match has offerred productive odds of 1.87 in favour of Devon Conway in the NZ vs BAN Day 1 match prediction.

Monimul Haque To Score Over 22.5 Runs

I have found yet another winning market with this bet. The newly appointed Bengal Tiger has been on fire and was a vital cog in securing a historic win for his side. This was Bangladesh's finest Test win and the newly appointed captain did justice to his role. The middle order Bangladeshi batter has been having a phenomenal year as he is the second highest Test run scorer for the Bengal Tigers. Having played a total of 15 Test innings, Hague has mustered 604 runs at an amazing average of 46.46. He will be joining this fixture on the back of 88 runs struck in Bangladesh's first innings against the Black Caps. The left handed batsman has always enjoyed an interesting encounter with the Kiwis. He has a staggering total of 609 runs from the six matches he has played against the host in his career, and an average of 67.66 from 12 innings. Haque has also captained his side successfully over the past. From the 22 Test Innings that he has spearheaded, he has an impressive average of 42.55 from them with 851 runs under his belt. While batting away from home, Haque has a total of 1138 runs under his belt with an average of 29.94. All eyes will be on Monimul Haque as he takes on the crease in the second match against the Kiwis starting Sunday.Pari Match has offerred lucrative odds of 1.87 for Haque in the NZ vs BAN head-to-head match.

Litton Das To Aggregate Runs For The Tigers

Lastly we have yet another Tiger's batsman who played a stupendous knock in the first Test and helped his side to victory. The Bangladesh wicketkeeper showcased his class and calibre as he struck an 86 in Bangladesh’s first innings. The wicket-keeper batsman of Bangladesh has played 28 Test matches in his career and amassed 1539 runs from them at 33.45. Over the last one year, Litton Das has gone on to gather 680 runs from the 13 Test innings played at an extraordinary average of 52.30. In the three Test matches that Litton has played against the Black Caps, he has made 150 runs from them averaging at 30.00. Under the captaincy of Monimul Haque, Litton has come out to bat in 19 Test innings and hammered 875 runs. He has an average of 48.61 from these 12 matches. His last five Test scores are - 85, 45, 6, 59 and 114 which clearly display's his stupendous form in recent times. Pari Match will offer profitable odds in favour of Litton Das closer to the match of NZ vs BAN player betting tips.

Monimul Haque To Score Over 22.5 Runs - @ 1.87 (Pari Match)
