    13.2 pulled, spliced, skied, caught! Ferguson stuck with the short-pitched attack, and this is another well-directed bouncer at scorching pace: 144km/h. It's too quick for Tamim, who's not quite in position to pull as the ball rushes on to him, but does so anyway. The ball takes the splice of the shot, looping simply to Boult at midwicket 60/2

    8.3 the breakthrough! And Soumya has given it away. He'd looked so good until this point, but he's undone by an ugly hoick into the leg side. Henry aimed the ball nice and full and Soumya looked to target the leg side, but the ball rushed on to him, taking an inside edge and bouncing off the pad onto the stumps. 45/1
    30.2 against the run of play Bangladesh lose Shakib! A mirron image of the previous delivery, angled in on a length from around the wicket, Shakib looks to cut again but it's far too close for the stroke, perhaps a tad full as well, the outside edge or maybe a bottom edge, yes looks like that is induced and pouched brilliantly by Latham standing up to the stumps 151/4
    23.5 Mushfiqur's run himself out here! Length on middle, pushed towards cover, Mushfiqur took off with the push to the off side, it was to the Guptill's left but he got there quickly and returned a throw right over the stumps, with no response from Shakib, Mushfiqur was stranded mid pitch and the belated attempt to turn around proved futile. 110/3
    37.1 short, pulled and skied! Henry dug it in and Mithun threw himself into a pull shot, having walked at the bowler. But he couldn't control it at all, and de Grandhomme easily snaffled the chance down at fine leg 179/5
    42.3 flapped to cover! Santner really held this one back. The ball was delivered at only 76km/h. Really, really slow. Mahmudullah tried to wait for it, but didn't wait long enough, flashing his stroke in the air and straight to Williamson at cover 197/6
    46.2 Mosaddek holes out! He was hoping to take that six count to two, but he got rather too underneath this attempted loft down the ground. It's Guptill who settles under it at long on, and he makes no mistake. Another Bangladesh batsman trudges off, having failed to really get going 224/7
    49.2 two in two! Saifuddin plants his foot and heaves to leg, but the ball is very full and bursts past him, shattering the stumps. Henry has his fourth, and Bangladesh are bowled out four balls short of their full fifty 244/10
    48.2 edged, and gone! Boult followed the full, wide one up with a quick bouncer. Mehidy had advanced down the track, and wasn't in any position to pull. A feathered edge flies through to Latham, and Boult has his second 235/8
    49.1 full, wide and Mashrafe slashes it down to third man where Boult, who had just been placed down there, holds onto a simple catch 244/9

    5.1 length and angled in, held in the surface, Guptill wanted to go over long-off but wasn't to the pitch, dragged it leg side where the long-on was in place, only had to come in a few paces and takes it comfortably. What a start for Shakib! 35/1
    9.6 Has he got him? Bangladesh celebrate and Munro walks. Shakib's the man for Bangladesh again. It was full around middle and leg, Munro went for the slog sweep but couldn't get under it and thereby didn't have the elevation to clear midwicket, who took an excellent catch diving forward 55/2
    31.1 Bangladesh have some belief now. Williamson has picked out deep midwicket. Stepped out to flick, didn't get to the pitch but went through with the flick, hand came off the grip, there was no power in the stroke and turned out to be an easy catch. 160/3
    38.3 has he tickled this? Yes, yes. He has. Is there another twist? Taylor walks straight off, didn't even bother going up for a review. Strangulated down leg. Excellent catch by Mushfiqur, nifty footwork. Just the faintest of tickles as he was looking to work it fine. 191/5
    31.6 what a catch at deep midwicket! This was a poor ball, not the one Mehidy would've hoped to get a wicket out of, but he has and he couldn't be happier. All the team members run across to congratulate Shaifuddin, who ran in a few yards from the boundary and then threw himself full-length forward to complete an excellent catch. The game has come alive 162/4
    43.3 what an inspired change! or was it just a poor stroke? neesham can't resiist going over the top, takes on the full ball on off, and lofts it straight to long-off, and Bangladesh are well and truly back into this now 218/7
    42.5 Shaifuddin breathes life into the game! Slower ball outside off, a short one, de Grandhomme goes for the ramp but because of the slowness of the delivery can't get it high enough over the keeper, and has Mushfiqur made amends for the earlier miss? excellent take, timed his jump perfectly 218/6

    46.3 and they keep coming back into the contest! Full on middle, a full toss in fact, right through Henry, who inexplicably just missed it. Pressure mounts on New Zealand, particularly with Santner off strike 238/8
