5.15pm After bowling out Australia for 62 in their last T20I, before Wednesday, Bangladesh have now rolled over New Zealand for 60. There was sharp turn on offer for the spinners, but the conditions weren't unplayable. The New Zealand batters looked rusty against spin and tried to find their runs elsewhere, against pace, but Mustafizur and Saifuddin were also smart with their change-ups. We will be back shortly for what will be a slim chase.

Matt: "NZ were whitewashed our last few ODI tours here and sent an rotated B if not C team so I'd expect to lose every game and based on today it could be embarrassing unfortunately. Not enough depth/experience on these pitches. Personally I find them bad for these pitches - makes for a limited contest between bat and ball (I think a good pitch should be 160-180 run pitches) - but credit to Bangladesh as they've bowled well and we really threw many wickets away."

M MAK: "One thing I can assure you is chasing this 60 run won't be an cakewalk. Rather Bangladesh will have to fight well to reach the finishing line."

Mustafizur Rahman to Duffy, OUT, Mustafizur closes out the innings. NZ have been dismissed for their joint-lowest total in T20I cricket.. Another offcutter, Bracewell swings for the hills and skies it. Saifuddin runs back from mid-on, I think, and completes a sprawling catch

JA Duffy c Mohammad Saifuddin b Mustafizur Rahman 3 (9m 5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 60.00
