2.09pm Relentless from New Zealand, right from the start. Lef by Trent Boult who made the new ball talk, and Henry who in typical manner went without reward despite some quality bowling. Their opening spell had Bangladesh on the defensive immediately and then Jamieson and Neesham built on that, the latter picking up two important wickets that looked like they were Bangladesh's way out of a collapse. Santner then came in and tied things up, and New Zealand finish with a bowling card of Test match figures, really. Only 132 to win this first game. We'll see you soon for the chase.

Boult to Taskin Ahmed, OUT, taken at mid-on and that is the innings done. Full and into middle and leg. Leans in and tries to flick into the leg side. But it looks lie a slower one and he's through it too soon. Leading edge hangs up nicely for the fielder and that is four for Boult

Luke: "Santner is just a class act in the field. He's been doing it for years and makes it look easy."

Henry to Mahmudullah, OUT, pummels it but to midwicket That is a sharp catch from Santner, timing his jump perfectly. This was a superbly timed pull, picking up a short of a length delivery from outside off. Santner goes up with two hands and lands well. Henry has a wicket, at last

Mahmudullah c Santner b Henry 27 (83m 54b 1x4 1x6) SR: 50.00
