Bangladesh have declared an hour into day three on 595 for 8. Be back in a bit for NZ's reply

Mark: "Bat on for an hour? Check! Declare, to make a statement? Check! 600 up? Not quite, but near enough. 9 sessions left to try to force a result? Check! New Zealand now have to bat probably for more than 5 sessions to make the match safe."
