New Zealand were poised for a whitewash of Bangladesh after inflicting another collapse on the visitors. After openers Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes added 102 for the first wicket, Bangladesh lost 7 for 77. Nurul Hasan’s cameo – 44 off 39 balls, including three fours and a six – then hauled his team to 236 for 9.

Nurul batted sensibly before opening up in the slog overs. He mowed Matt Henry over midwicket and hooked him for back-to-back boundaries in the last over of Bangladesh’s innings before skying a return catch off the third ball. Henry ran back and completed a superb catch.
