Nurul Hasan was halfway down the track when he was sent back. The throw was at the wrong end and Tom Latham underarmed it to the bowler, who finally dislodged the bails. Nurul Hasan put in the desperate dive. It is referred. Replays show that it is way too close to call, even with the zoomer it is actually hard to decide if the bat is over the line or on the line. In the end the benefit of the doubt is given to the batter.

OUT! TIMBER! Two in two for Patel and he has 4! A first-baller for Afif. This is also an important wicket, Afif Hossain is a lovely timer of the ball, we have seen what he is capable of in the recent series against Australia. New Zealand at the moment, all over Bangladesh. Afif Hossain will be disappointed. Not the best of balls, it is very full and outside off. Afif looks to jam it out but ends up playing down the down the wrong line. It lands, spins back in and hits the off pole. Bangladesh now need a miracle.

Who will come in at number 7? It's going to be Afif Hossain.

OUT! TAKEN! That is a huge, huge wicket! Ajaz Patel gets the Bangladesh skipper and he is amidst a dream spell here. Mahmudullah looks to break the shackles and rightly so, they were going nowhere playing like the way they were, the run rate needed building, he though picks the wrong bowler as Patel has not put a step wrong so far. Mahmudullah makes room as he wants to target the off side. Ajaz Patel bowls it wide and slow. Makes Mahmudullah reach out for it.

A single to end! Goes full and on middle, Rahim works it through mid-wicket for one. End of a long over.

Better! This is quick and outside off, Rahim slashes but is beaten for pace. There is a vast difference in his slower one and the quicker one.

WIDE! Another extra! On a wicket where runs are hard to come by, extras could be vital. Already the second wide in the over. Scott Kuggeleijn needs to bowl with more control. He is drifting it a little too down the leg side, does that again. Wided.

That was quite sharp! A yorker outside off, Mahmudullah looks to jam it out but it goes off the bottom of the bat towards third man for one more.

We are ready for play. The umpires are out in the middle. Finn Allen and Rachin Ravindra are the openers for New Zealand. Mahedi Hasan to start with the ball.

Mahmudullah, the captain of Bangladesh says that, yes they are looking forward to the chase as the pitch looks better but he is still unsure on how it will behave. Adds that it's always difficult batting first on such a track and will be looking to restrict the opponent to a modest total. Ends by saying that there are no changes to their last match's playing XI.

Tom Latham, the Kiwi skipper says, that they will have a bat first and they took a learning from the second match and will keep improving. They will look to put on a competitive score and try to defend it. Also adds that the guys with the ball have done a wonderful job and will look to continue the same. Ends by saying that the wicket is tricky and they will look to improve upon it and there are three changes in the side.

PITCH REPORT - Tino Mawoyo is down with the pitch report. He says that the sun is shining and the pitch is the one used in the first match. There are cracks but they aren't visible due to the light grass cover. There will be variable bounce and the batsmen will have to adapt in order to have a flourish at the end.

Bangladesh (UNCHANGED XI) - Mohammad Naim, Liton Das, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah (C), Afif Hossain, Nurul Hasan (WK), Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman.

New Zealand (Playing XI) - Finn Allen, Rachin Ravindra, Will Young, Tom Latham (C/WK), Colin de Grandhomme, Henry Nicholls, Tom Blundell, Cole McConchie, Scott Kuggeleijn, Ajaz Patel, Jacob Duffy.

TOSS - Up goes the coin and it lands in the favour of New Zealand. Tom Latham says that they will have a BAT first.
