New Zealand Won a thriller Against Bangladesh.
Bangladesh after their Morales high from the last game faced kiwis at the oval in london for a D/N world cup clash. Batting first Kiwi pacers never let Bangladesh batsmen to get settle down and put a big score on board as we have earlier witnessed in the matches played at oval. With a 45 run opening stand bangladesh players never got successful in converting small partnerships into a big one. Only thier most prolific all rounders shakib al hassan went on to make 64 barring that few of them cross 20 marks and added suitable contributions to the teams total on a slightly overcast day.
For newzealand pacer matt henry rips through the bangladesh batting order with a figures of 4-47 with trent boult also picking up 2 wickets. Bangladesh got all out on what was not a satisfying total of 244.
Replying to that new zealand also couldn't get the best of starts after they lost both the openers when a total of 55 to shakib al hassan. Then skipper kane williamson and ross taylor put on 105 run stand to ensure new zealand cross 160 mark before mehdy hasan miraz dismissed kane and latham in the same over to add more intrest in the contest.
Bangladesh as an improved odi side nearly took the knees of kiwis when mossadek hossain and saifuddin combined in the late spells and took four kiwi wickets to add thier trouble but mitchell santner and lockie ferguson ensured kiwis don't loose more wickets and beaten Bangladesh in a thriller by just 2 wickets after reaching the target in 47.1 overs with 17 balls to play. This was earlier not expected when new Zealand came into the game. In the comming games bangladesh will put a strong hold and will shock someone unexpected in thier fixtures.
