Bangladesh vs New Zealand Live Score, 3rd T20I Match Updates: It rained for about 40 minutes as another abandoned game looked on the cards. The rain eventually stopped but wet outfield delayed the resumption. Heavy rain interrupted the clash after Nathan Smith and Jayden Lennox struck in the power play to stun the hosts. Smith picked up two wickets in the fifth over after Lennox provided the opening breakthrough in the fourth over. Litton Das (13* off 6) holds the key for his team after Bangladesh lose three quick wickets.

Toss Update: Nick Kelly, New Zealand skipper, won the toss and decided to bowl first. He talked about how, with rain around the corner, the decision to chase could be better as they aim to square the T20I series after losing the ODI series. 

Bangladesh and New Zealand meet in the third and final T20I of the three-match series. The hosts won the first game before the second match was abandoned due to rain without a single ball being bowled. Today, as these two nations meet again, the Blackcaps will aim for a win to square the series. It has been an underwhelming tour for the visitors who earlier lost a three-match ODI series 2-1, even after taking the lead. 

Bangladesh vs New Zealand Pitch Report

The Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium has always benefitted teams batting second, despite the difficulty of scoring early in the innings. Because the surface is frequently slower, the ball does not strike the bat quickly. Bowlers are very important to their team’s success, particularly those who can maintain disciplined lines and lengths.
