BAN vs NZ Live Cricket Score

13.2 OUT! Thew short ball does the trick here. It is a well-directed one from Lockie. It is on the body, Tamim looks to pull but he ends up hitting it off the upper half of his bat and it lobs up towards short mid-wicket. Trent Boult there takes a simple catch. Tamim, just like his opening partner, Soumya cannot convert his start and his innings comes to an end. 60/2

8.3 OUT! BOWLED! Henry strikes and a good-looking opening stand has come to an end. Fuller on middle and leg, Sarkar looks to go hard at it as he tries to heave it on the leg side. He misses his shot and the ball clips his pad and deflects onto the stumps. Hard to say whether this shot was needed or not at this point of time. Bangladesh had not lost a wicket so far but the run rate was not that great. Sarkar was trying to up the ante and in that process, lost his wicket. The argument will be that he has got a wide range of shots and he could have chosen something better than a slog. Henry is a happy man though and he has once again got the breakthrough for his side. 45/1

30.2 OUT! The dangerous Shakib is out of here. Good length ball outside off, Shakib goes chasing after it. He looks to cut it but gets a feather on it. Latham behind the stumps takes a good sharp catch behind the stumps. This is the wicket New Zealand desperately wanted and the ploy to keep the keeper up has worked. So once again Shakib gets to his fifty and departs. 151/4

23.5 OUT! This was coming, wasn't it? They have played a lot of games together but their communication today has left a lot to be desired. Floated ball on off, Rahim punches it wide of cover and looks for a quick single. Mushfiqur in fact gets off straightaway after hitting. Shakib though comes forward for a bit and then sends Rahim back who was half way down the track. Guptill gets to the ball and throws it to Latham. The throw is a good one and this time Latham whips the bails off. Mushfiqur is nowhere in the picture and he has a word with Shakib before he goes. Not the wicket Bangladesh would have wanted to lose and definitely not in this manner. New Zealand though would be happy to see the back of Mushfiqur as he was the chief tormentor against South Africa. 110/3

37.1 OUT! Henry gets his second off the game. His 5th of this World Cup. Henry bends his back and bangs it in short on middle. Mithun comes down the track a bit and goes for the pull but he is late in his shot as the ball zips off the surface. He ends up top edging it towards fine leg. Colin de Grandhomme runs to his left and takes a good catch. Henry is ecstatic and why woudn't he be? But he needed to be a bit a watchful there too. While looking at the fielder take the catch, he did not realize that Mithun was running right into him and the two almost collided. 179/5

42.3 OUT! Santner finally gets a wicket. He has bowled very well and has deserved to get into the wicket column. He bowls it short on off. He bowls it slower through the air, Mahmudullah looks to up the ante and go after Santner. He looks to flat-bat it over covers but it goes off the toe part of his bat to cover. Kane Williamson there makes no mistake and takes a regulation catch. Big wicket for New Zealand again. Mahmudullah can be dangerous at the death. 197/6

46.2 OUT! In the air...and taken. Full ball on middle, Boult misses his yorker and ends up bowling a full ball. Mosaddek clears his front leg and looks to tonk it over long on. He does not time it well and hits it in front of long on. Martin Guptill there comes in and takes an easy catch. He has been everywhere in the field today. 224/7

49.2 OUT! Cleaned 'em. Full ball on the stumps, Saifuddin looks to hit it but he misses and the ball hit him on the pads and goes crashing onto the stumps. BANGLADESH BOWLED OUT FOR 244 with 4 balls wasted. 244/10

48.2 OUT! Boult gets his second of the game. Smart thinking this from Boult. He follows the slower one with a bouncer. Hasan comes down the track and looks to pull it but gets a feather on it which goes behind to Latham. He takes the catch and starts celebrating. Hasan is unmoved but the umpire raises his finger. Mehedi then starts walking back he does not take the review as he knows he had got something on it. 150th ODI wicket for Trent Boult! 235/8

49.1 OUT! Third wicket for Henry in this game. Another good outing for the pacer. He bowls it full outside off, Mortaza looks to hit it over covers but gets a top edge which flies down to third man. Trent Boult stationed there takes an easy catch. New Zealand just a wicket away from wrapping up this innings. 244/9

5.1 OUT! Bangladesh desperately needed a wicket and their superstar has given them just that. Shakib bowls a straighter one on off, Guptill looks to hit it over the bowler's head. He does not time it well and ends up hitting it towards long on. Tamim stationed there comes running and takes an easy catch. Guptill's cameo comes to an end. He will be disappointed to not make the most of his start. 35/1

10 OUT! What a catch! Mehedi has taken an excellent catch here. Shakib bowls it flatter on middle and leg, Munro stretches out to heave it on the leg side. He was later stuck in two minds, whether to hit or block it but decides to go with the shot. He drags his shot towards mid-wicket which goes uppishly. Mehedi Hasan at short mid-wicket dives in front and takes it inches above the ground. Munro is going nowhere but umpire Oxenford raises his finger. All of a sudden New Zealand have lost both their openers and Bangladesh are right back in this one. 2nd wicket for Shakib in the game. He has had a brilliant day, first with the bat and now with the ball. He is enjoying his 200th ODI for sure. 55/2

31.1 OUT! Williamson holes out! Mehedi is a happy man. He tosses it up on middle and leg, Williamson comes down the track and looks to hit it over the mid-wicket fielder. Williamson's bottom hand comes off the handle as he looks to hit it and he ends up chipping it to the man at deep mid-wicket. Mossadek in the deep takes an easy catch. Have Bangladesh found an inroad in this game? 160/3

38.3 OUT! Big, big wicket here for Bangladesh. It was a nothing delivery. Mosaddek bowls it down the leg side, Taylor looks to flick it but gets a feather on it. Mushfiqur takes it behind the stumps and puts in an appeal. The umpire raises his finger and Taylor walks back without even reviewing it. Is the door pushed ajar now? 191/5

32 OUT! Don't go anywhere as this match is not over by any stretch of imagination. Mehedi bowls it short on the stumps, Latham gets on his back foot and looks to hit it over the deep mid-wicket fielder. He is unable to get properly under it and ends up hitting it towards deep mid-wicket. For an instance it looks like it will fall short of the man there but Saifuddin runs in and takes an excellent catch diving in front. Wicket off the first ball and wicket off the last ball. What a brilliant over from Mehedi! Is this the over which will turn the tide in Bangladesh's favour? 162/4

43.3 OUT! Taken! Well o well, when everyone was wondering why has Mosaddek been given the ball, he strikes! Hossain gets his second of the match. Neesham looks to finish the game and targets the part- timer. Hossain bowls a flatter one outside off. Neesham, without coming to the pitch of the delivery looks to go downtown but can only manage to offer a simple catch to Sarkar at long off. He cannot get the elevation and distance right. Has New Zealand pressed the panic button here? 218/7

42.5 OUT! Brilliant catch from Mushfiqur. Slower bouncer outside off, de Grandhomme looks to play the upper cut but mistimes it. It goes behind to Mushfiqur who jumps and takes a good one-handed catch stretching his right hand! Mushfiqur Rahim has not had a good game here but he has taken a brilliant catch. The game continues to enthrall. 218/6

46.3 OUT! Bowled! Slower ball but it looks like it slips off his hand and it ends up being a full toss. Henry goes for the big one but misses and the ball hits middle and off. Saifuddin is a happy man and can he win it for his side? 238/8
