- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.6 brilliant catch at short fine! Taskin, you beauty! This is full on the pads, Guptill looks to play the pick up shot but gets it off a thick inside edge. This flies nonetheless and Taskin throws himself to his left to pluck this one-handed stunner. He's surprised that it stuck, don't think he can still believe he caught that. Bangladesh have a second, Guptill walks off in utter disbelief. 55/23.6 mistimes this hoick, but this is an excellent catch at square leg. Naim had to wait an eternity for that to come down, but he kept his eyes on the ball, watched it lodge right in as he took the catch with his palms facing the sky. 36/16.1 Got him! Deep square takes a dolly as Conway goes now, Bangladesh roaring back. He's looking to whip this away but the ball bounces extra to leap off a top-edge. Easy catch 55/311.4 got him! Fantastic comeback from Mahedi after that first ball. Changed up his pace and had him in all sorts of trouble. Steps out to this loopy length ball outside off, doesn't get to the pitch and is forced to swipe all over it. Young's struggle ends 94/413.4 chipped back to the bowler! Slow is the way to go for Mahedi. Tosses this up at off stump, hard hands from Chapman as he looks to force this past the bowler for the single at long-off. Friendly little chip and he takes it comfortably with the reverse cup 111/5Extras7 (b 1, lb 2, nb 2, w 2)TOTAL173/5 (17.5 Overs, RR: 9.7)Fall of wickets: 1-36 (Finn Allen, 3.6 ov), 2-55 (Martin Guptill, 5.6 ov), 3-55 (Devon Conway, 6.1 ov), 4-94 (Will Young, 11.4 ov), 5-111 (Mark Chapman, 13.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.1 holes out at long-off! It's full and fast outside off, he looks to go inside-out but can't get good enough connection on that. He's struggled for timing all night. Easy catch down at long-off 110/31.6 he's picked out the lone man in the deep. The pull isn't timed well and Phillips, diving forward, has taken an excellent catch at deep square. Liton backed away to pull but the ball skidded through faster, catching him off guard, and so the timing wasn't right with that one and he has to go. 13/110.1 swatted straight to long-on! Got a sweet connection on this, but Southee gets him with a subtle change. He's backing away into the leg side, Southee gets a cutter to go marginally away from him. He has to reach out and middles that sweetly, but he can't rotate his upper body enough to get elevation on that. Flat and to long-on's right. Big wicket, he was smoking em tonight 94/213.3 knocks the top of leg stump. A legcutter, sliding on from length at middle stump. Mahmudullah had dropped his shoulder into the off side to try and ramp that. Well beaten on his attempt 123/413.5 knocks off stump out of the ground! It's a spectacle, alright, but on close viewing this is a length ball at off stump. Afif looks to swat it behind square on the leg side and is done by the pace and angle on that 124/514.1 nice diving catch to the left by Conway. A slower ball at length on middle stump, gets down for the ramp, gets something on it, but it loops nicely for the keeper 126/615.4 length outside off, slower ball. Looks to slog and gets a top edge that Southee pouches that cleanly 137/7Extras8 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL142/7 (16 Overs, RR: 8.87)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Litton Das, 1.6 ov), 2-94 (Soumya Sarkar, 10.1 ov), 3-110 (Mohammad Naim, 12.1 ov), 4-123 (Mahmudullah, 13.3 ov), 5-124 (Afif Hossain, 13.5 ov), 6-126 (Mohammad Mithun, 14.1 ov), 7-137 (Mohammad Saifuddin, 15.4 ov)
