New Zealand vs Bangladesh Highlights And Cricket Score 3rd Match - ODI Commentary

End of Over : 50.0 NZ: 330/6

Bangladesh will have to bat really well if they are to chase down this target. Wickets will be crucial for them. The batsmen have done the job for the Kiwis, now the onus will be on the bowlers. They will look to strike early and put more pressure on the Bangladeshi batsmen. The chase starts in a while, join us for it.

The day started brightly for the Bangladeshi bowlers. They stuck early with the new balls but weren't able to stop the run flow. That led to them not being able to pick wickets. Mortaza started well, but did not get good support from the other end. Both, Rubel and Mustafizur went for aplenty, going for 157 runs in 19 overs combined, taking 3 wickets between them. There was some respite in the middle overs, with Saifuddin and Mehidy Hasan exerting a bit of control but not getting much wickets.

41 runs in the last 3 overs means that the Kiwis have rocketed the score again. They did not start in the best of fashion though, losing Colin Munro cheaply while for a change, Martin Guptill was not able to capitalize on it. Now, with the score reading 59/2 and without Kane Williamson, it looked like the Kiwi batting lineup would succumb under pressure. But Henry Nicholls and Ross Taylor joined hands and stitched a 92-run stand. Both went on to score half centuries which settled the innings a bit. That gave a good platform for the rest of the batting and the lower middle order made full use of it.

Mohammad Saifuddin to Martin Guptill. OUT! CAUGHT. It is a clean catch and Guptill has to depart. Full length delivery on off and middle, Guptill looks to loft it over mid-wicket but doesn't get the distance on it as his bat turns in his hand. Tamim Iqbal at deep mid-wicket runs to his right, holds the ball and then realizes that he will cross the rope. He then tosses the ball up. The toss up is not the best one as it is a bit behind him but he jumps in time and catches it and comes back in the field. The replays show his feet were off the ground when he took it and he came back in without touching the rope. The centurion from the last two games cannot get the third one in a row and New Zealand lose their second wicket.

TOSS - Bangladesh win the toss and have elected to field first.

Hello and welcome to the third and final ODI between New Zealand and Bangladesh. This is the last ODI for the Kiwi's before the World Cup and they have rested skipper Kane Williamson for this one. It will be interesting to see whether they name a strong playing XI or will they test their bench strength. The visitors, meanwhile, will look to avoid a whitewash and go to the Test series on a back of a win. They will definitely be looking to improve their batting performance which was below average at best in the first two games. They will have to make-do without their best batsman of the series, Mohammad Mithun, who is out of this one due to injury. Lots to play for. Live action begins in a while, stay tuned for updates...

End of Over : 47.2 BAN: 242/10

That is all we have for you from this series. New Zealand win the 3-match ODI series 3-0. The two teams now go on to play a 3-match Test series which begins from 28th February. Join in for that one. The first Test will be played at Seddon Park. It begins at 1100 local (2200 GMT). Until then, see you!

Victorious New Zealand captain for tonight, Tom Latham, says that the batting unit managed to get in partnerships and it was not a one-man show, which pleased him a lot. Is really happy to see Southee swinging the ball like he did. On New Zealand's improvement, Tom says that the challenge is to improve in all facets of the game. Agrees and admits that after taking a wicket, the bigger challenge is to keep taking more scalps at regular intervals.

Bangladesh captain, Mashrafe Mortaza, admits that the boys are disappointed but looks at some of the positives, mentioning Sabbir's century at the forefront. Adds that in this game, they picked up wickets regularly till the 35th over, which was the second positive. But then laments the inability to fight back after Jimmy Neesham's onslaught.

MARTIN GUPTILL HAS BEEN AWARDED THE PLAYER OF THE SERIES for his 264 runs, at an average of 132. Says that it was a nice comeback after the injury break, putting up a nice couple of performances leading to a series win. Is looking forward to play the red-ball format now and sharpen his skills. On his World Cup chances, Guppy says that one has got to be positive and believe in oneself.

TIM SOUTHEE HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN OF THE MATCH. Says that it is nice to get out in the middle and contribute to a team win and a series win. Adds that he got plenty of time to rectify some of the errors identified from the India series. Admits that there is healthy competition amongst the seamers within the unit and that is helping the team overall,. Praises the batters for setting up the win which gave the bowlers some cushion to come out and take some wickets upfront. Ends by saying that every time he gets an opportunity to play for New Zealand, it is special.

Earlier in the day, New Zealand posted 330 runs on the board courtesy - fifties from Henry Nicholls, Ross Taylor and Tom Latham. Martin Guptill missed out on a rare Kiwi record of scoring three consecutive centuries. But the total proved to be more than enough with the middle order stepping up. It was another poor outing with both the bat and ball from Bangladesh. Stay tuned for the presentation.

The Kiwi bowlers started right on the money and Tim Southee started throwing venom from the very first ball. He rattled the Bangladeshi top order and he was the pick of the bowler picking up 6/65.

A very comprehensive victory for New Zealand in the end. Sabbir Rahman's lone battle went in vain. The chase started in a very disastrous manner for the visitors. They lost three wickets in three overs and were on the back foot from there and kept losing wickets. At one stage it looked like Bangladesh will struggle to go past the 100-run mark when they were 61-5. But Sabbir Rahman had decided to make the most of the life he got when he was dropped on 0. He put a 101-run stand with Mohammad Saifuddin and made sure Bangladesh bow out with some respect. His maiden century along with Saifuddin's 44 and Mehidy Hasan's 37 took Bangladesh's total to 242.

Moving on to serious stuff, this is exactly what New Zealand wanted. Not the best of balls bowled by Boult but it does the trick. A short ball, around off, coming in, Saifuddin goes for the pull but is too late into the shot. He is done in by the angle of the ball as well, coming into him. He cannot bail out of the shot and miscues it. The ball limps off the top edge and Martin Guptill follows its parabolic trajectory, running back from square leg. Gets to the ball comfortably and pouches it. That ends the 101-run stand and a decent knock from Saifuddin as well. Game over? 169 more needed from 95 balls.

30.6 1

Lockie Ferguson to Sabbir Rahman. ON THE HELMET! That is what pace can do. Short and fast, outside off, at 148.1 kph. Poor Sabbir. Barely has time to even think, let alone react. He tries to play the upper cut, then tries to sway. Too much thinking to do. No time. Bang! The ball comes in much quicker than his anticipation and hits him on the grille of his helmet. Goes past Latham towards third man and the batsmen cross ends. The umpire first signals a leg bye and then the entire population on the field gets behind Sabbir, checking him out.

Mitchell Santner to Mohammad Saifuddin. SAFE AS A HOUSE. Full and down the leg side, Saifuddin worked this through mid-wicket and immediately called for two. Long leg got across, so did mid-wicket, one of them fired a rocket throw to the keeper who whipped off the bails but the batsman seemed to be in. Still, the umpire wanted to be sure and his mate upstairs confirmed it.

A run out appeal! That did not look to be close, to be honest. But the Kiwis are confident. Referred upstairs...

In comes the skipper, Mashrafe Mortaza. Can he hang around with Sabbir?

34.1 W

Trent Boult to Mohammad Saifuddin. OUT! Top edge and taken! Brought for the kill and Boult kills it. What a spoil sport, this Latham is. Relax guys, just joking. Moving on to serious stuff, this is exactly what New Zealand wanted. Not the best of balls bowled by Boult but it does the trick. A short ball, around off, coming in, Saifuddin goes for the pull but is too late into the shot. He is done in by the angle of the ball as well, coming into him. He cannot bail out of the shot and miscues it. The ball limps off the top edge and Martin Guptill follows its parabolic trajectory, running back from square leg. Gets to the ball comfortably and pouches it. That ends the 101-run stand and a decent knock from Saifuddin as well. Game over? 169 more needed from 95 balls.

Trent Boult is back on. 6-1-23-1 so far. Latham will want to kill any sort of a contest here.
