The first batch of New Zealand players has arrived in Dhaka today ahead of their upcoming white-ball series against Bangladesh.
The remaining members of the squad are expected to land later in the night, around 11:00 pm, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials said.
New Zealand will play three ODIs and an equal number of T20 Internationals during their three-week tour in Bangladesh.
Due franchise commitments, at least 10 first choice New Zealand players opted out of the Bangladesh tour but Captain Tom Latham insisted the tour presents "opportunities for younger players or those with less experience than usual".
The ODI series is scheduled for April 17, 20 and 23, while the T20I matches will be held on April 27 and 29, and May 2.
The ODIs will commence at 11:00 am, while the T20Is will start at 2:00 pm.
The matches will be split across two venues. The first two ODIs and the final T20I will be played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka and the third ODI, along with the first two T20Is, will be held at Bir Shrestha Shaheed Flight Lieutenant Motiur Rahman Stadium in Chattogram.
According to the schedule, the visitors will rest on Tuesday before beginning their training session at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Wednesday.
