New Zealand will set out to bury bad memories of their last limited-overs series in Bangladesh when the teams square off in the first of three matches in Dhaka tonight.
The last time New Zealand played an ODI rubber there, in 2010, they were thumped 4-0.
"Obviously you want to right the wrong of what unfolded back then, but it was a very different team as well," captain Brendon McCullum said yesterday. "We know we didn't play well during that 2010 series.
"I think we're better prepared now and we have what I think is a well-rounded squad to cope with the challenges that Bangladesh throw at you and that's obviously the left-arm spin component.
"We can mitigate against that a little bit with the strong left-handed batters we've got in our squad."
