New Zealand to host Bangladesh Test series in January

New Zealand will play two tests against both South Africa and Bangladesh in a home summer schedule pushed back because of quarantine requirements in the country, New Zealand Cricket said on Friday.

Bangladesh will play tests in early January in Mount Maunganui and Christchurch, while South Africa will open their series at Hagley Oval in mid-February with the second test following in Wellington.
