New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat as the Black Caps seek a series clean sweep in the third one-day international against Bangladesh in Wellington on Friday. Captain Tom Latham, who scored an unbeaten 110 as New Zealand won by five wickets in the second ODI, said the Basin Reserve's green wicket offered his batters a chance to post a solid score. "It looks a pretty good surface," he said. "There's been a few runs here domestically over the last few months so fingers crossed we can get stuck in and put a good score on the board." The only change for the Blacks Caps is the return of veteran batsman Ross Taylor from a hamstring injury, replacing Will Young. Bangladesh skipper Tamim Iqbal said his attack needed to repeat the form they showed in the last ODI in Christchurch, when they created chances but were let down by fielding blunders. "I hope they get it in the right areas and bowl the way they did in the last game," he said. Paceman Rubel Hossain replaces Mohammad Shaifuddin in the Bangladesh bowling attack.
