Commentary

That is it from this game then! New Zealand have taken it an unassailable lead in the series. Still a game to go and it is a must-win for the hosts. That game will take place on the 26th of this month. It will begin at 1330 IST (0800 GMT). Till then, goodbye and take care!
Ish Sodhi is the PLAYER OF THE GAME!
For Bangladesh, a few of their batters got off to starts but none went onto make it big! They needed someone to go and score a 80 or a ton but that was not the case. They will be disappointed a big with the middle order as there were a lot of soft dismissals. In the end, they were beaten quite easily.
A very convincing win then for the visitors! They have one man to thank for their effort and that is Ish Sodhi! Have to say, he was the star for them with the ball and single-handedly won the game for them. Before that, the top three for Bangladesh got them off to a good start. However, Ish Sodhi turned the game on its head by taking wickets in quick succession. Mahmudullah and Mahedi Hasan then revived hopes but it was Ish Sodhi who broke that stand again. He finished with a six-fer and helped his side take a 1-0 lead.
