BAN vs NZ Live Cricket Score

53.3 OUT! TAKEN! Ish Sodhi gets into the act now! A big blow for Bangladesh as the set Mahmudul Hasan Joy departs now. Sodhi imparts good revs on the ball as he bowls it full and around off, Mahmudul Hasan Joy does not get fully forward to smother the spin and pushes out in front with hard hands. Gets an outside edge that travels low towards first slip where Daryl Mitchell reacts quickly to grab the ball inches off the ground, diving low to his right. Bangladesh have now lost both their set batters.  184/4

12.3 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Ajaz Patel breaks through for New Zealand! Changes to around the wicket and drops it fractionally short, outside off, Zakir Hasan sees the length and sets himself up on the back foot. The ball spins in sharply and beats him on the inside edge before going back to rattle into the off-stump. Zakir Hasan stands there in disbelief. Ajaz Patel gets his reward and brings an end to Zakir Hasan's vigil at the crease.  39/1

24.2 OUT! TAKEN! Najmul Hossain Shanto absolutely throws his wicket away here! Phillips serves a juicy full toss, on middle, Najmul Hossain Shanto advances down the track again and tries to heave it away a bit too hard and loses his shape. As a result, he only manages to get a top edge and the ball flies in high in the air wide of mid on where Kane Williamson moves to his left, settles under it and takes a fantastic catch tumbling backwards. Shanto will be very disappointed as he fails to convert his great start. Bangladesh loses their second wiclet!  92/2

52.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! 'Man with the golden arm' Glenn Phillips delivers for New Zealand! Mominul Haque runs out of luck and he has to make the long walk back now. Phillips bowls it flatter and quicker, outside off, Mominul Haque goes back in his crease to cut this one through the off side. The ball is not that short but Mominul still goes through with the shot. Pays the price as he gets an under edge which is snaffled at a low height by Tom Blundell, making a tough catch look easy.  180/3

60.3 OUT! TAKEN! Bangladesh are gifting away wickets to New Zealand here! The experienced Mushfiqur Rahim tries to go on the attack but loses his wicket in the process. Ajaz Patel floats this one up and around off, Mushfiqur Rahim skips down the track to loft it over mid off but fails to get under the fully and fails to get the elevation as the ball travels in the air and Kane Williamson makes no mistake at mid off. Mushfiqur Rahim walks back with his head down as the hosts lose half their side now.  210/5

73 OUT! CAUGHT! A soft dismissal and Glenn Phillips gets his third wicket! Slows it up this time and gets the ball to turn in, on middle and leg, Shahadat Hossain steps out of the crease but gets into two minds, whether to go for the big shot or play it safe. Ends up chipping it straight to short mid-wicket where Henry Nicholls accepts the simplest of catches. Just when Bangladesh had a partnership going, they have been dealt a blow.  261/7

67.5 OUT! TAKEN! No need for a review here! Kyle Jamieson gets a well-deserved wicket! He lands this back of a length and around off, Mehidy Hasan initially tries to duck under but realises that it is not that short and tries to pull. However, he is too late into the shot and just sticks his bat out there as the ball loops up off the top edge and Daryl Mitchell at first slip moves forward and takes a dolly. Bangladesh six down now!  233/6

78.3 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! An excellent grab from Tom Blundell and Glenn Phillips has another wicket! Bowls it from slightly wide of the crease and darts this one back in, short and around leg, Nurul Hasan waits on the back foot and tries to help the ball on its way. He gets a feather on it and Tom Blundell moves well to his left to pouch a healthy deflection neatly. Bangladesh continue to lose wickets at regular intervals.  276/8

Kyle Jamieson has his second wicket and Bangladesh are now 9 down!  290/9

85.1 OUT! LBW! Tim Southee strikes on the first ball on Day 2! Starts from around the wicket and angles it in a good length, on middle and leg, Shoriful Islam is caught on the back foot and he fails to bring his bat down in time. Gets pinged near the knee roll on the front pad. A massive appeal for LBW but turned down. Tim Southee wastes no time in taking the review. Nothing on UltraEdge and it is three reds on Ball Tracking. A fantastic review from Tim Southee and that brings an end to the Bangladesh innings!  310/10

12.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! An inspired bowling change by Najmul Hossain Shanto as Taijul Islam strikes in his first over! Not the best of deliveries from Taijul as this is full and way down leg, Tom Latham's eyes light up as he gets down and goes for the sweep. He fails to roll his wrists to control the bounce and ends up getting a top edge that lobs towards short fine leg where Nayeem Hasan runs to his right and completes the simplest of catches.  36/1

15.3 OUT! TAKEN! Sharp catch from the debutant and Mehidy Hasan gets his reward! New Zealand have now lost both their openers.

Spears this one into the right-hander, full and on the off-stump line from around the wicket, Kane Williamson reaches out in front but makes the mistake of playing for the ball turning away. The ball comes in with the angle and goes through the defence of Williamson as it sneaks through the bat and pad gap to rattle into the off-stump. Bangladesh are delighted as they know the price of this wicket.  262/7

31.1 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! The move to bring pace back on pays off right away for Najmul Hossain Shanto and Bangladesh! Shoriful Islam starts his new spell from over the wicket and delivers it on a good length, in the channel on off, Henry Nicholls with a nothing shot as he has a feel for the delivery and gets a feather on it due to a bit of extra bounce and a hint of away movement. Nurul Hasan behind the stumps, does the rest and Shoriful Islam has his first wicket. A much-needed breakthrough for Bangladesh.  98/3

47.1 OUT! STUMPED! This is exactly what Bangladesh was looking for. A superb way to play around the batter under the conditions. They kept him quiet for some overs now and kept bowling those good balls in the good areas to build the pressure. Daryl Mitchell decides to step down to the bowling change in Taijul Islam and the first ball itself turned away from way outside the off stump on a short length. Nurul Hasan made no mistake behind the stumps and New Zealand lose their 4th wicket.  164/4

Not the best of deliveries by Nayeem Hasan, short and turning down leg, Tom Blundell goes back in his crease and looks to work it around the corner. Ends up getting a feather on it and Nurul Hasan does well to move to his left and snaffle it safely. Just the start Bangladesh were after in this post-Tea session.  175/5

The ball spins away to catch the outside edge which goes low towards first slip. The ball dips in front of Najmul Hossain Shanto who does well to get his fingers underneath and complete the catch. Mominul Haque has given Bangladesh the breakthrough they were desperately looking for.  253/6

101.1 OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Mominul Haque gets the breakthrough for Bangladesh. Once again, a break in play favours the fielding side. This is pushed through quicker, full and around middle, skids thorough as well, Kyle Jamieson prods forward to defend but is very late into his shot and the ball hits him on the front pads right in front of the stumps before his bat came down. A huge appeal and up goes the finger. Jamieson takes the review but UltraEdge and Ball Tracking shows that it is absolutely plumb. New Zealand nine down and lose the review as well!  316/9

82.5 OUT! CAUGHT! A freakish dismissal and Taijul Islam has his fourth wicket! Gives the ball air from over the wicket and bowls it around off, Ish Sodhi extends his arms to play at this one but the ball keeps straight. Sodhi gets an inside edge which deflects off the keeper's left pad and lobs towards short leg. Shahadat Hossain stationed there, is alert to the situation and completes the catch by diving forward.

New Zealand have been bowled out for 317!  317/10

Tim Southee pitches this one up, on middle, Najmul Hossain Shanto stays there and drives it hard down the ground where Southee gets down and manages to get his left hand on it as the ball deflects and hits the stumps at the non-striker's end. New Zealand players look confident and why not because the replay confirms that Joy is out of his crease. Bangladesh lose both their openers now!  26/2

12.1 OUT! LBW! Ajaz Patel draws first blood! What a beauty of a delivery from to get rid of Zakir Hasan for the second time in this Test. Patel floats this one up well around off, grips and turns in a long, long way, Zakir Hasan looks to work it away but misses it completely due to the spin and gets hit on the pads. A huge appeal, and up goes the finger. Hasan has a chat with his partner but decides against the review and walks back to the hut. Bangladesh lose their first wicket!  23/1

69.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! This is what New Zealand were looking for, early breakthrough and this time it is the Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto who has to walk back.

New Zealand get what they wanted early up in the day. Bangladesh lose their 4th. Also, Shahadat Hossain comes out to the middle now!  214/4

Bangladesh three down now and the Kiwis have an opening!  116/3

Patel delivers the arm ball on this occasion, full and on middle, goes with the angle, Mushfiqur Rahim strides forward to block but plays down the wrong line and misses to get hit on the pads right in front of the stumps. There is a huge appeal, and the after some thinking, the umpire raises his finger. Mushy takes the review but UltraEdge shows no bat involved and Ball Tracking indicates three reds. Bangladesh six down and lose a review as well!  278/6

75.4 OUT! LBW! What a ball by the magician Ish Sodhi. Pitching up on the leg stump line and gets the ball to turn just enough to beat the bat of Shahadat Hossain, hitting him below the knee roll in front of the stumps.

Bangladesh eight down now!  311/8

97 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! Ajaz Patel gives this one some air, full and on off, turns in, Taijul Islam goes for the slog but the spin in means that he hits it with the inside-half of the bat without any timing and in the air towards mid on where Henry Nicholls moves to his right and dives to take a good catch.

100.4 OUT! STUMPED! That is it then for Bangladesh! Ajaz Patel loops this one up around off, Shoriful Islam dances down the track and has a wild slog across the line but misses and Tom Blundell behind the stumps collects it and takes the bails off quickly.

1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! What a start for Bangladesh! An absolute beauty from Shoriful Islam and he draws first blood here.

Latham goes for a duck and New Zealand loses one early!  0/1

This is pushed through quicker, on middle, turns in, Devon Conway once again uses his feet to block but this time gets an inside edge of splice of the bat towards short leg where Shahadat Hossain takes really sharp catch. New Zealand four down now!  46/4

10 OUT! LBW! That is a huge wicket down for New Zealand as it is their master batter Kane Williamson walks off for just 11 runs in this innings and it is once again Taijul Islam who gets his man for the second time in this Test match. Perfect arm ball to execute from the off stump line, coming in after pitching and Kane Williamson plays down the wrong line and misses to hit the ball with the bat as the ball goes on to hit him way low on the front pad. There is a huge appeal for LBW and the umpire says out. Kane Williamson takes the review and sees that there is no bat involved in the UltraEdge and then watches three reds on the screen. New Zealand loses their second and now are in huge trouble.  19/2

12.4 OUT! CAUGHT! There is it, it was coming and everyone in the field knew it. Henry Nicholls was not looking comfortable to the off-spinner and he gets down to one knee and looks to sweep his way out to get away from the strike. He gets a huge top edge due to the turn away and the ball carries to the short fine leg where Nayeem Hasan backtracks ans takes a comfortable catch. New Zealand in huge trouble!  30/3

58.4 OUT! CAUGHT! That is the big wicket that Bangladesh were looking for and that somewhat sums up the game for New Zealand. It is Daryl Mitchell who departs after making a very well played half-century.

New Zealand now 8 down.  132/8

27.4 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Absolute ripper from Taijul Islam! He bowls this flatter, short and on middle, angles in and then grips and turns away with extra bounce, Tom Blundell moves back to play at it but gets surprised by the bounce and sticks his bat out there as the ball takes the slightest edge to the keeper where Nurul Hasan takes a sharp catch moving to his right. New Zealand lose half their side now!  60/5

34.5 OUT! LBW! Nayeem Hasan gets the breakthrough now! This is tossed up slow outside the off stump, turning into the right-hander after pitching. Glenn Phillips misses the length and gets back on the crease to block it. The ball turns sharply and hits him on the knee roll on the front foot. There is a huge appeal for LBW but the umpire says No. Najmul Hossain Shanto takes the last review remaining for Bangladesh. The ball looks to miss the bat completely on UltraEdge. Pitches in line, impact looks in line and the ball goes on to hit the wickets. New Zealand lose another one in the name of Glenn Phillips. Bangladesh get the review back and pick up a huge wicket.  81/6

43.3 OUT! LBW! This is the wicket Taijul Islam was trying to get since the past two overs. Its Kyle Jamieson who has to walk back after being dismissed for 9 runs.

Tossed up delivery on the off stump line, rising on the batter after pitching. Ish Sodhi on the front foot looking to adjust to the bounce but could only loop it up for Zakir Hasan standing at silly point who takes a comfortable catch to end this New Zealand innings. Its Bangladesh who beat New Zealand for the first time in Bangladesh in a Test match.  181/10

67.1 OUT! TAKEN! FIVE FOR TAIJUL! Bangladesh closer than ever from the win now! This is shorter in length and around middle, Tim Southee rocks back to pull it away but the ball keeps a bit low and he hits it uppishly straight towards short mid-wicket where Zakir Hasan gets down well and takes a sharp low catch. New Zealand nine down now!  178/9
