TheBangladesh cricket team toured New Zealand in January 2022 to play twoTest matches.[1][2][3] The Test series formed part of the2021–2023 ICC World Test Championship.[4][5] In September 2021, the tour dates were moved back slightly due toCOVID-19 quarantine requirements for travelling to New Zealand.[6][7] Initially the tour was also scheduled to include threeTwenty20 International matches. However, these were dropped from the itinerary when the dates were confirmed byNew Zealand Cricket in November 2021.[8]
Bangladesh won the first Test by eight wickets.[9] It was Bangladesh's first win in Test cricket against New Zealand,[10] and their first win in international cricket against New Zealand in New Zealand.[11] However, New Zealand went on to win the second Test inside three days,[12] beating Bangladesh by an innings and 117 runs, to draw the series 1–1.[13] It was alsoRoss Taylor's final Test match,[14] after he had announced his retirement from international cricket in December 2021.[15]
