Bangladesh need to chase down 341 to win. That's a massive ask but not impossible in good batting conditions. It seemed like they'd keep New Zealand to a reasonable total when they picked up a few quick wickets to leave them on 158 for 4. But what made the difference was the fact that New Zealand never let the wickets affect their run rate, still going at nearly six an over. All credit for Tom Latham for that. Good total became massive after the partnership between Latham and Munro. Mustafizur had expensive returns in his comeback but still impressed with his variations. The pace was definitely down compared to where it was during the IPL but he is just returning from surgery. Fielding was a bit of a let-down today for Bangladesh. Now for them to make up for it with the bat. Join us in around half an hour for the chase.

1b
Mustafizur Rahman to Southee, 1 bye, short ball, misses the pull as the ball sneaks from beneath the bottom edge. They run the bye and Mushfiqur cannot hit the stumps with his throw
49.5
2
Mustafizur Rahman to Southee, 2 runs, drags his length back but the ball does not bounce enough to unsettle Southee. He pulls but does not get hold of it completely and the ball goes on the bounce to deep midwicket
49.4
4
Mustafizur Rahman to Southee, FOUR, there's Southee's big-hitting ability. Thumps this fuller ball through long-off. It's a half-volley and some room is all Southee needs
