18:50 local time: Play has been officially called off. New Zealand win by 102 runs (D/L method). They wrap up the series and lead by 2-0. Bangladesh were never really in the chase as the New Zealand bowlers were on top. Mills was aggressive and did well to pick up four wickets and Vettori chipped in with couple of wickets. Fulton picks up the Man-of-the-Match for his 83 runs. Thanks for being with us, this is Binoy George signing off. Please join us again for the third and final ODI on December 31, until then it is bye from all of us.

18:35 local time: The rain is getting heavier and the news from the umpires is that they will wait for some more time before they call off play. Most of the spectators have left the ground and we will keep you updated as the news comes in.

18:25 local time: The pitch is covered and the rain does not seem to cease. It is not yet official that play has been called off, please stay tuned....

18:19 local time: The umpires are having a chat and they call for the covers as the rain gets heavier. The players go off the field. It is unlikely that we will have any more play but we will keep you posted.
