NZ vs BAN Live Cricket Score

0.1 OUT! TAKEN! What a start! Well, no one was expecting that to happen on the very first ball. Trent Boult comes from over the wicket and serves a good-length ball around middle, angling it away. Litton Das looks to be aggressive and put Boult under pressure by stepping out and decides to whip it away off his hips. The ball goes flat toward deep backward square leg where Matt Henry comes in and times his jump well to take a sharp catch. Boult is ecstatic and Das has to depart for a golden duck here. 0/1

8 OUT! CAUGHT! The change of angle works wonders for Lockie Ferguson but Tanzid Hasan will be thoroughly disappointed with that shot. Ferguson switches to around the wicket and bowls it full and quick, angling it on the legs as well. Tanzid's eyes light up seeing a half-volley on the pads but he is way too early on the flick and ends up clipping it in the air. The ball goes to the man in front of square leg and Devon Conway takes a sharp catch around his chest. Tanzid departs after a decent start and Bangladesh are two don early here. 40/2

11.4 OUT! TAKEN! Lockie Ferguson strikes again! The short ball has worked and he gets rid of the set Mehidy Hasan. This is banged into the pitch once more, over middle, Mehidy Hasan decides to go for the pull this time but gets a bit hurried and the ball flies off the top edge towards fine leg where Matt Henry pouches it safely. Ferguson is pumped up as Bangladesh lose their third wicket now! 56/3

12.1 OUT! CAUGHT! The golden arm of Glenn Phillips continues to prove useful for the Kiwis. He gets a wicket on his very first delivery. He bowls this quicker through the air, short and on middle, angling in, Najmul Hossain Shanto moves back to clip it away but closes the face of the bat a bit early and gets a leading edge as the ball pops up in front of short mid-wicket where Devon Conway puts in a brilliant dive forward to take the catch. Bangladesh four down now and in a lot of trouble! 56/4

29.5 OUT! TAKEN! Lockie Ferguson sticks with the short-ball ploy and does break this vital stand. A skiddish bumper over middle and leg, at over 146 clicks and this one hurries on at an uncomfortable height. Shakib Al Hasan is back in his crease and is very late on the attempted pull. The ball takes the higher part of the bat and goes high up toward backward square leg. Tom Latham from behind the stumps calls it early and starts running after it. The man in the deep stops and Latham puts in a big dive to pouch it with both gloves. Shakib departs after a fighting knock and Ferguson has his third wicket of the game. 152/5

35.5 OUT! CLEANED UP! Matt Henry gets the big wicket! A bit unlucky for Mushfiqur Rahim but he has to walk back after a brilliant knock. Henry takes pace off this delivery and serves this on a good length, on off, keeps very low, Mushfiqur Rahim looks to swipe it away but is way early through it and misses. Rahim goes down on his haunces as the ball goes through to shatter the stumps. Bangladesh losing wickets at the wrong time here! 175/6

37.5 OUT! TAKEN! Beautiful change of pace from Boult! He gets his 200th ODI wicket as well. This is a knuckle ball, full and around off, Towhid Hridoy goes for the big drive but fails to control it as he goes through his shot too early and the ball lobs up off his bat towards short extra covers where Mitchell Santner makes no mistake. Bangladesh seven down now! 180/7

45 OUT! CAUGHT! Ends with a wicket does Mitchell Santner and Bangladesh lose their eighth wicket. This one is looped up on a shorter length, turning into the leg stump. Taskin Ahmed sits down on one knee and plays a stylish sweep shot, flat and hard but the ball goes straight to the man on the backward square leg fence. Daryl Mitchell only has to take a couple of steps to his right and takes a good catch. Taskin departs after a couple of lusty blows. 214/8

48 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! The short delivery proving to be the downfall of another Bangladeshi batter. Henry bangs this onto the pitch, on middle, angling in and takes pace off as well. Mustafizur Rahman once again backs away to pull it away but is late on the shot and takes his eyes off and is in no position for that shot. As a result, it goes off the top edge high in the air towards the square leg region where Tom Latham runs to his left and dives to pouch it safely into his gloves. Bangladesh nine down now! 225/9

20.1 OUT! LBW! Who else, it is that man, Shakib Al Hasan again who gets the crucial breakthrough for Bangladesh. He sees Conway go down and bowls this quicker, full and around middle, angling in, Devon Conway gets stuck in an awkward position as he tries to withdraw from his reverse-sweep but misses to get hit on the pads. There is a huge appeal for LBW, and up goes the finger. Conway takes the review but UltraEdge shows no bat involved and Ball Tracking indicates three reds. He has to go back after a decent knock as the Kiwis lose their second wicket. 92/2

2.4 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Mustafizur Rahman draws first blood! He gets rid of the in-form Rachin Ravindra and this is exactly what Bangladesh needed. FIzz lands this one on a hard length and on the fifth stump line, straightens a bit after hitting the deck, Rachin Ravindra looks to push it away tentatively with no footwork and only manages to get a thin outside edge behind where Mushfiqur Rahim pouches it safely. New Zealand lose their first wicket! 12/1
