NZ vs BAN: Pitch Report
The batters would be licking their lips after they see the pitch as it aids runs scoring. Teams would look to post a big total on the scoreboard. Therefore, it would not be a surprise at all if the captain who wins the toss chooses to bat first. Since there is a possibility of rain, the cloud cover might also force the captain to bowl first.
