Najmul Shanto takes the aerial route and that has gone towards the fence. One bounce four from the left-hander and that’s 100 up for Bangladesh
This has been a good fight from Litton Das and Najmul Shanto. They have resisted well against the New Zealand bowling line up that was looking lethal.
WOR on FIRE 🔥

Litton and Shanto are getting a move on here but they need to build a big stand. Bangladesh have been left tottering after losing early wickets. New Zealand bowlers are on top and a lot of credit goes to their fielders as well
While the New Zealand bowlers, the Kiwis are putting up a brilliant show in the field as well. It has been an absolute masterclass in the field from the players. They are not letting Bangladesh get easy runs
