10.1
W
Tim Southee to Soumya Sarkar
OUT! Southee removes the dangerous batsman! A clever delivery, short and outside off, off-pace, Sarkar hops back to make room and then has to reach out for the ball. Ends up mistiming it towards long on where Milne takes a fine catch. End of an outstanding knock and a threatening stand which was worth 81 off 52 balls. 76 needed off 35 balls.

Tim Southee to Mohammad Naim
Errors after errors! Fuller in length around off, Naim drives it towards extra cover and speeds to the other end. Sodhi has a needless shy at the bowler's end but misses. The fielder in the deep tries to back-up but fumbles and the batsmen get two overthrows, three runs in total added to the scoreboard. Southee is not pleased.
10.3
1
Tim Southee to Mahmudullah
Back of a length ball on off, Mahmudullah hangs back and drags it down to wide long on for one.
10.4
2
Tim Southee to Mohammad Naim
Top edge, safe! Short in length around leg, Naim top edges his pull shot and it flies behind. Bennett tries his best to reach it from short fine leg but it drops safely. They take two.
10.5
0
Tim Southee to Mohammad Naim
Slower one, on a length and around leg, Naim stays leg side and tries to work around but ends up pushing it back to Tim.
10.6
0
Tim Southee to Mohammad Naim
Another knuckle delivery, short and wide outside off at 109.5 kph, Naim is deceived and misses. 70 needed off 30 balls, the match is now slipping away from Bangladesh.

Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
Play and a miss! Quicker and flatter outside off, Mahmudullah attempts to cut but misses.
11.2

Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
Another play and a miss! Full and flighted outside off, Mahmudullah tries to smash it over covers but it spins past his bat.
11.3

Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
Too wide outside off, hitting the blockhole, Mahmudullah mistimes his drive through the line. Three dots.
11.4
4
Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
FOUR! Good spot to hit the ball! Full and around off, Mahmudullah throws his bat at it and smashes it behind the bowler for a boundary. A much-needed one for Bangladesh.
11.5

Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
FOUR! Consecutive boundaries! Tossed up ball around off, Mahmudullah brings out the reverse sweep and lets it fly over short third man for a boundary.
11.6
2
Ish Sodhi to Mahmudullah
Forces a full ball back past the bowler and by the time the long off fielder gets around, they take a couple of runs. 10 from the over!
12.1
W
Glenn Phillips to Mohammad Naim
OUT! Phillips strikes to get his first international wicket! Naim is also out of here and the asking rate gets the better of him. The pressure was mounting on him. Full and floated on off, Naim aims to clear long off but gets more height than distance. Guptill comes running in from the deep and takes the simplest of catches. 60 needed off 23 balls and this match is drifting away from Bangladesh now.
12.2
1
Glenn Phillips to Mahmudullah
Flighted and outside off, driven through covers for a single.
12.3
1
Glenn Phillips to Afif Hossain
Aerial but safe! Flatter and around off, Afif tries to heave but gets it away off the top edge. It beats the despairing dive of the extra cover fielder and they take a run.
12.4
1
Glenn Phillips to Mahmudullah
Short and on off, Mahmudullah goes back and cuts it through cover-point for a run.
12.5
0
Glenn Phillips to Afif Hossain
Follows the batsman down the leg side with a shortish ball, Afif tries his best to cut but misses. Conway also fails to connect and they take a bye.

Glenn Phillips to Mahmudullah
FOUR! This one probably slips out of Phillips' hand. A full toss outside off, Mahmudullah attacks it and lofts it over backward point for a boundary. 8 runs and a wicket from the over.
13.1
1
Adam Milne to Afif Hossain
Too full in length and on middle, Hossain whips it through mid-wicket for a run.
13.2

Adam Milne to Mahmudullah
FOUR! Streaky boundary, not Milne's night. Spears in a full ball on middle and leg, Mahmudullah tries to flick but it takes the inner half, beats the stumps and races away to the fine leg fence.
13.3
W
Adam Milne to Mahmudullah
OUT! CLATTERED! The slower one does the trick for the speed merchant. Milne bowls it on a length and in the line of the stumps at 116 kph, Mahmudullah shuffles across the stumps for the paddle scoop but it arrives late to beat his bat and finds the stumps. New Zealand inching closer to sealing the deal.
13.4

Adam Milne to Mohammad Mithun
Width on offer outside off, Mithun edges it down to third man for a run.
13.5
W
Adam Milne to Afif Hossain
OUT! Sound of timber! Pace does the trick for Adam Milne this time. Good length ball around off, at 141 kph, Afif swings his bat at it but fails to connect and the off stump is pegged back. Milne has bounced back here well!
13.6

Adam Milne to Mahedi Hasan
Full in length and outside off, steered through backward point for two runs.
14.1
W
Tim Southee to Mohammad Mithun
OUT! Caught behind! Just helped into Conway's gloves. The wheels are coming off rather quickly for Bangladesh. A knuckle-ball around middle and leg, Mithun tries to play the paddle scoop but doesn't have any pace to work with. Ends up inside edging it towards the keeper who dives across to his left to complete a fantastic catch.
14.2

Tim Southee to Mohammad Saifuddin
Short in length on middle, Saifuddin advances down the track and tries to swing it over the leg side, misses.
14.3

Tim Southee to Mohammad Saifuddin
Another swing and a miss! Slower one, on a length outside off at 106 kph, Saifuddin is early into his shot and misses.
14.4
1
Tim Southee to Mohammad Saifuddin
Miscued! Pitches it up and wide outside off, Saifuddin reaches out to play the lofted shot over covers. But it takes the toe end and flies towards mid off. Drops safely, a single is taken.

Tim Southee to Mahedi Hasan
NOT OUT! Missing leg. A length ball around middle and leg, angling down, Mahedi tries to heave it across the line but misses. He is pinged on the front pad, they appeal but the umpire disagrees. Tim takes the DRS as the batsmen cross. The Ball Tracker finds it to be missing the leg pole.

Tim Southee to Mohammad Saifuddin
A dipping yorker on off, Saifuddin digs it out to the off side for a single.

Hamish Bennett to Mohammad Saifuddin
Shortish and on middle, pulled towards mid-wicket for a run.

Hamish Bennett to Mahedi Hasan
SIX! Short in length and close to off, Mahedi gets across and is through with his shot early. Still packs it with good power and the ball clears the fence at square leg.

Hamish Bennett to Mahedi Hasan
What happened there? Miscommunication between Southee and Guptill. A knuckle delivery, around off, Mahedi mistimes it in the air over extra cover and Southee from inside the ring and Guptill from long off go for it. The former leaves it alone thinking that the latter will go for it, Guptill does the same. Funny! The ball drops right in the middle of them. One run taken.
15.4
W
Hamish Bennett to Mohammad Saifuddin
OUT! Taken this time, by Southee! Bennett finally gets his wicket. Slower one, on a length around off, Saifuddin swings his bat blindly and gets a big top edge. Southee settles underneath it at extra cover.

Hamish Bennett to Mahedi Hasan
Comedy again! Fuller length ball around leg, a knuckle delivery, Hasan heaves it over mid-wicket. Two fielders converge, Phillips and Allen. Both leave it for each other before Glenn realizes and picks the ball. Two taken.

Hamish Bennett to Mahedi Hasan
NEW ZEALAND WIN BY 28 RUNS (DLS METHOD)! Too full in length on middle, almost served in the blockhole, Mahedi drives it down the ground for a run.
