Bangladesh and New Zealand will play two Tests, three ODIS and a one off Twenty20 in a series which will conclude on November 6. One of the most important amendments to the playing conditions pertain to changing the condition of the ball, which will be applicable in all three formats of the game. "Clause 42.1 which deals with The Match Ball -- changing its condition, has been amended to provide clarity in situations where the condition of the match ball has been changed, and the umpires cannot identify the person responsible for changing the condition of the ball," the ICC said in a statement.

"If a team has changed the condition of the ball and no player has been witnessed changing the condition of the ball, the ball will be changed, and the captain issued a first and final warning." Such a warning will apply for the remainder of a Test match or for the remainder of an ODI or T20I series.
