Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana Joty: "We are just trying to play as a team and we always wanted to perform and we're just trying to execute our plan.
"I told the team that we are not out of the tournament and we still have hope so something might come.
"I guess we have a good bowling unit and will chase down the score. There's no changes to the team."
'We've spoken about staying positive'published at 12:50 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February 2023
New Zealand captain Sophie Devine: "We're going to have a bat first today. It's a fresh wicket and looks like a belter, it looks a real opportunity to put runs on the board.
"We've spoken about staying positive and not getting too far ahead of our ourselves. We need to build into it. You're not going to get to your end target straight away.
"It's a big game for us and we're looking for the opportunity. We've been disappointed with the way we have started."
