BAN beat NZ: Bangladesh beat New Zealand by 4 runs in a thriller; take 2-0 lead in the series: BANGLADESH vs NEW ZEALAND 2nd T20: Bangladesh secured a scintillating 4 runs win over New Zealand in the second T20I here at Dhaka to go 2-0 up in the five-match series. With 20 required off the final six deliveries, Mushfiqur Rahim held his nerve and gave away just 15 runs despite bowling a No Ball to Tom Latham who couldn’t take his side over the line with his maiden T20I fifty.
Opting to bat, Bangladesh posted a competitive total of 141-6 on the back of thirties from both the openers – M Naim (39 off 39) and Liton Das (33 off 29), and skipper Mahmudullah (37* off 32). Rachin Ravindra was the pick of the bowlers for New Zealand has he returned with the impressive figures of 3-22 in his four-over spell. In reply, New Zealand’s chase couldn’t really kick-off as they lost both the openers cheaply in the powerplay. From then, Tom Latham stood firmly at one end while the wickets kept falling at a regular interval at the other end. Latham finished as the top run-scorer for the visiting side, scoring 65 off 49.
Both teams will now square off again at the same venue for the 3rd T20I on Sunday. While Bangladesh will be looking to gain an unassailable lead, New Zealand will be hoping to bounce back and save the series defeat.
