INNINGS BREAK: New Zealand managed to post a fighting total o 182 on a good batting surface after being asked to bat first. Katene Clarke and Dane Cleaver scored fifties for the Black Caps, while Rishad Hossain was among the pick of the bowlers for Bangladesh. The visitors lost a bit of momentum in the middle phase, with Bevon Jacobs and Dean Foxcroft failing to make much impact. However, useful contributions from Nick Kelly (39) and a late cameo from Josh Clarkson helped push the total to a competitive 182. For Bangladesh, the spinners did a good job, picking up 3/63 in...
The umpires have a quick discussion and walk towards the batters. Nick Kelly and Josh Clarkson are now heading off the field. The floodlights aren’t fully on yet, and the visibility is not good enough to continue. It’s been overcast throughout the day, with strong winds making conditions worse. We’ll have to wait for now, hoping for a quick restart.
Another one falls 😤🔥 Bevon Jacobs dismissed by Tanzim Hasan Sakib. Bangladesh on fire 🇧🇩💪#BCB #BANvsNZ #T20 #Cricket #Tigers pic.twitter.com/kY4a3fU2j3
