Match over
0.4 : 0.4: S Rance to T Iqbal, EDGY FOUR! Not a convincing way to get off the mark. Rance delivers it full and around off, nipping away, Tamim tries to flick on the leg side but it catches the outside edge and races past second slip for a boundary.
2.4: S Rance to S Sarkar, FOUR! Glorious by Sarkar! Rance overpitches this time, around off, Soumya gets forward and strokes it through extra cover for a delightful boundary.
4.2 : 4.2: S Rance to S Sarkar, FOUR! Lovely timing! Fullish and around off, Sarkar leans forward and across to flick it stylishly through square leg for a boundary. He is settling down now after a nervy beginning. Has struggled against anything pitched short but has been severe on the fuller length deliveries.
6.1 : 6.1: S Rance to S Sarkar, FOUR! Great shot! Serves a length ball around middle, Sarkar gives the charge and smashes it down the ground for a cracking boundary.
9.4 : 9.4: J Neesham to T Iqbal, FOUR! Lovely footwork by Sarkar, he dances down to the pitch of the delivery and smashes it over mid on for a boundary.
10.5 : 10.5: M Santner to S Sarkar, FOUR! 50 up for Bangladesh! Floated full ball on off, Sarkar kneels and nails his sweep shot through square leg for a boundary.
12.6 : 12.6: M Santner to T Iqbal, FOUR! Santner sends across a short delivery around off, it skids away with the angle and Tamim plays a late cut just wide of the keeper for a boundary.
15.2 : 15.2: J Neesham to T Iqbal, OUT! New Zealand finally taste success. Neesham serves a short delivery outside off Tamim slaps it through the line and it goes over covers. Falls straight down the throat of Colin Munro in the deep. Tamim will be really disappointed to get out in this way.
16.4 : 16.4: M Santner to S Rahman, OUT! Bowled 'em! Excellent delivery by Santner. He hurls in a well-disguised arm ball, around off, Rahman gets back to play for the spin which is not there. He just stands there watching the ball skidding past his bat and breaking the stumps. Failed to pick the variations and paid a big price for it. Good phase of play for the Kiwis.
19.3 : 19.3: S Rance to M Rahim, SIX! Rahim attacks the length delivery by Rance by advancing down the track. He makes space for his bat swing and powers it over long off for a biggie.
19.6 : 19.6: S Rance to S Sarkar, FOUR! Uppish but safe! Rance lands it on a length outside off, Sarkar drives it on the up past the extra cover fielder for a boundary.
20.3 : 20.3: Ish Sodhi to M Rahim, FOUR! Loopy full ball on middle, Rahim gets down on one knee and sweeps it firmly through square leg. Worker near the ropes tries to pull it back but his body was in touch with the ropes. The onfield umpire gets it confirmed from upstairs and signals a boundary. The third umpire watched numerous replays before reaching to that decision.
24.5 : 24.5: Ish Sodhi to S Sarkar, OUT! Sarkar departs! Big breakthrough for New Zealand. Sodhi is pumped up. He serves a loopy full ball around off, Soumya tries to slog sweep but gets it away off the top edge. It balloons in the air, Latham moves across to his left at square leg and completes the catch safely. End of a fine knock by Sarkar.
27.1 : 27.1: C Munro to M Rahim, FOUR! A streaky one! Full and outside off, Rahim tries to stroke his drive through covers but edges it towards short third man. Sloppy effort by Sodhi stationed there and it's a boundary.
27.5 : 27.5: C Munro to Al Hasan, FOUR! Brilliant shot! Short of a length ball on off, Shakib rises on his back foot, rides the bounce and whacks it square of the wicket on the off side. The sweeper cover tries his best to cut it off but fails in his attempt.
28.4 : 28.4: Ish Sodhi to Al Hasan, OUT! Excellent catch! Dot balls built pressure and Shakib has thrown his wicket away. A loopy full ball around middle, Shakib tries to loft it over mid off but fails to get any timing behind the shot. It's dying in front of Neesham inside the ring who does well to get down low to take the catch. Bangladesh losing plot.
32.2 : 32.2: Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah, FOUR! Short on middle and Mahmudullah rocks back and pulls it over short mid-wicket for a boundary.
32.6 : 32.6: Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah, FOUR! Short again, outside the off stump, the batsman rocks back and punches it through covers for a boundary.

36.6 : 36.6: Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah, FOUR! Shot! A half-tracker on middle, Mahmudullah goes deep inside the crease and pulls it through square leg for a boundary.
37.1 : 37.1: J Neesham to M Rahim, OUT! Gone, big wicket for New Zealand. Bowled on a length on off stump, nips away a little. Rahim opens the face of the bat and tries to guide it down to third man but only manages to find an edge and Luke Ronchi takes a good diving catch.
37.6 : 37.6: J Neesham to Mahmudullah, FOUR! A freebie by Neesham. Short and wide outside off, Mahmudullah has all the time in the world to put it away to the deep point boundary.
41.5 : 41.5: J Neesham to Mahmudullah, FOUR! Poor fielding there at point. Short outside off it is cut through point for a boundary.

47.2 : 47.2: H Bennett to Mahmudullah, OUT! Mahmudullah is bounced out! The extra pace of Hamish Bennett does the trick. He bangs it in short, Mahmudullah takes the challenge to pull it over the leg side but the bounce gets big on him and he ends up top edging it in the air. Seth Rance circles underneath it from backward square leg and completes the catch near the short fine leg region. Well taken, never took his eyes off the ball. Another timely breakthrough for New Zealand.
48.6 : 48.6: S Rance to M Hasan, FOUR! Another full toss, this time the bowler isn't getting away with it. Mehedi makes room by going down the leg side and whacks it to the sweeper cover boundary.
49.1 : 49.1: H Bennett to M Hossain, OUT! Straight to the fielder! Length delivery outside off, slower in pace, Mosaddek gets across the stumps to play a fine paddle scoop but ends up handing a straightforward catch to Rance at short fine leg. He makes no mistake.
49.2 : 49.2: H Bennett to M Hasan, OUT! Bennett digs in a short ball, well-directed, Mehedi goes for the pull shot but fails to time it properly. A safe catch taken at fine leg, once again Seth Rance is the fielder.
49.5 : 49.5: H Bennett to M Mortaza, OUT! Mortaza is run out! A short delivery angling into the batsman, Mashrafe pulls it to deep mid-wicket and attempts the second run. The throw comes to the keeper who takes the bails off. They appeal, it's referred upstairs. The replays show that the Bangladeshi skipper has not planted his bat.
0.2 : 0.2: M Mortaza to L Ronchi, FOUR! Fine shot and a sloppy piece of fielding. Back of a length delivery again, around off, Ronchi camps back and punches it sweetly through covers. Sabbir Rahman gives the chase, tries to pull the ball back near the fence with a slide but fumbles. A boundary.

5.4 : 5.4: Al Hasan to L Ronchi, FOUR! Short, Ronchi cuts the ball through point for another boundary.
6.6 : 6.6: M Rahman to L Ronchi, OUT! Gone. Beautifully disguised slower one by Mustafizur, Ronchi fails to pick it and goes to flick it and is early into the short,it takes the edge and the ball goes straight up in the air and is pouched by Mahmudulla at mid off.

16.3 : 16.3: M Hossain to Tom Latham, OUT! George Worker is run out! He walks back dejected. Flighted ball outside off, Latham taps it down to point and looks for a quick single. Worker hesitates a bit in taking off and then runs towards the other end. The point fielder in the meantime attacks the ball with a forward dive and throws it to the keeper. Rahim takes the bails off as Worker puts in a dive. They appeal and the third umpire is referred. The replays show that George is way outside the crease.
17.4 : 17.4: Al Hasan to Tom Latham, FOUR! Nicely done! Another sweep shot by Latham and this time he finds the gap through square leg. Beats fine leg and finds the fence.

Good length ball landing around off and seaming back in after pitching, Latham pushes at it from the crease and gets a thin inside edge behind to the keeper.
