A complete performance from the hosts. At one stage, New Zealand looked set for 200, but Bangladesh pulled things back brilliantly to restrict them to 182. The chase wasn’t smooth early on, Saif fell in the Powerplay, Tanzid struggled for timing, and Litton couldn’t convert his start. Then came the turnaround. Towhid Hridoy and Emon took control with a fluent partnership, finding boundaries at will. Emon fell after a quick cameo, but the damage was done. Shamim kept the momentum going with an aggressive knock. Bangladesh (183/4) beat New Zealand (182/6) by 6 wickets in Chattogram | Towhid Hridoy 51...

DRINKS BREAK! New Zealand have been pretty tidy with the ball in the first half, keeping things under control. The visitors are slightly ahead in the game right now. Tanzid is struggling to get going and needs to find a way soon, or Bangladesh could slip further behind. Bangladesh 77/2 in 10 overs vs New Zealand (182/6) in Chattogram
