@canefan these pitches almost aren’t legit enough to be called pitches.

No wonder the Bangles can win away. Reminds me of the worst Indian pitches back in the day

Finn Allen is probably happy being isolated right now.

They need at least 9 more runs:

That's a really weak team we've put out there, little wonder we are struggling. They are pretty tough to beat in the shorter forms in their own conditions.

A grim looking squad. Short of Finn Allen making a miraculously fast recovery, or swapping in Scott Kuggeleijin for one of the tail, there's no other batting depth to bring in. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/new-zealand-in-bangladesh-2021-1272089/new-zealand-t20i-squad-1272732/series-squads

Regardless of team, this really is one of our most embarrassing results ever. That team is the Black Caps, not Black Caps A.
Not sure that's the case after Australia's specialists got absolutely smoked by them. They are really really good in home conditions, very hard to beat.
If we were serious about this (and I don't think we were), a few weeks of warmup would be needed to really get to grips with their pitches. But we're not, it's a cash grab, like most T20.
Still embarrassing, but not our most embarrassing

Its embarrassing all right but also the nature of touring bangledesh at the moment. They made a mess of Aus 4-1, are match hardened and playing at home on some pretty shonky pitches. And then we send a B team over in disguise and call them the Black Caps.
We are probably lucky its not shown on sky here
