CRICKET
New Zealand registered their third-back-to-back win as they defeated Bangladesh by 48 runs to go top in the tri-series standings with Pak in 2nd place
Devon Conway continued his red-hot scoring streak as he put up 64 runs on the board, followed by Glenn Philipps' 60-run inning which helped New Zealand beat Bangladesh by 48 runs in Christchurch on Wednesday. Adam Milne also shined for the hosts with his three-wicket spell as Tim Southee's side registered their third consecutive win on the trot.
The Kiwis began their campaign in the tri-series with a loss to Pakistan at the same venue earlier on October 8, but they avenged that loss on Tuesday, followed by another resounding win over Shakib Al Hasan's Bangladesh.
Having won the toss, Shakib, the visiting captain chose to bow first. The decision did not pay dividends as New Zealand were off to a strong start.
Finn Allen scored a fifty on Tuesday, and he was looked in a similar tune as he reached 32 runs but his inning was cut short. Fellow opener Devon Conway meanwhile kept going and smashed 64 runs in just 40 balls.
Martin Guptill added 34 runs, while Philipps' fifty ensured that Southee and Co were in for a big total. They finished with 208 runs on the board, at the loss of five wickets.
In reply, Bangladesh knew they were against the storm and thus kept losing wickets at regular intervals.
Shakib came out to bat and steadied the ship with his 70-run inning. He smashed eight boundaries and one maximum but the all-rounder's inning came to an abrupt ending courtesy of his opposition skipper Southee.
The Bangla Tigers played the full 20 overs, but could only score 160 runs at the loss of seven wickets, thereby falling short by 48 runs. They have lost all three of their matches in the tri-series so far, hardly the ideal preparation for the T20 World Cup 2022.
