    • Right! That's all from this game. The Kiwis have pocketed the series with one game still left. The third and final ODI between the two sides will be played on Friday, 26th March 2021. The action will begin at 1400 local (0100 GMT). We will look forward to your company once again. For now, it is goodbye from our side. Take care and cheers!

    • Tom Latham, the New Zealand skipper is back for the chat again. He tells that Bangladesh had wickets in hand but New Zealand controlled things nicely with the ball. Praises Santner for his bowling. Thinks they didn't get the best of the start but as the chase went on, they kept getting better. Says that it was a bit tricky surface and is pleased to cross the line. Talks highly of Conway and says that he has done superbly in domestic cricket and has got his best form in the international arena. Ends by saying that they want to improve more as a side.

    • Tamim Iqbal, the Bangladesh skipper, says that he felt that they could've won the game. Feels that their bowlers did really well to create chances but the fielders failed to support them. Adds that he is really disappointed with the result. Praises Rahim and Mithun for their batting. Adds that it was an improved performance from them but tells they are here to win the game as well. Reckons there will be dropped chances in the game of cricket but it hurts them. Says that people do not drop the catches willingly but they need to grab chances like these. Wants to be positive in the final ODI.

    • Tom Latham, the Kiwi skipper, is named Player of the Match for his superb knock. Starts by saying that it is really nice to have a match-winning contribution. Tells that it was all about partnerships during the chase. On facing the spinners, Latham says that the ball was turning a bit but the dew did make it a bit tough for them. Tells that they had their targets as a batting side and worked out their plans nicely.

    • Stay tuned for the presentation!

    • Earlier in the game, Latham won the toss and asked Bangladesh to bat first. On the back of a superb unbeaten 73 from Mithun and contributions from Tamim, Sarkar and Rahim, Bangladesh posted a fine total on the board. The Kiwis bowled tightly but failed to take wickets at regular intervals and that meant they gave away a few runs too many during the death overs. Santner was the pick of the bowlers with twin wickets. However, the likes of Boult, Henry and Jamieson too bowled tightly and got one wicket each to their name. Neesham had a poor game as he gave away 73 in his 9 overs. However, their good work in the first half with the ball meant that the Kiwis, led by their skipper's superb knock sealed the deal.

    • Chasing the total, the Kiwis didn't start well as Nicholls fell early and Guptill too didn't get going. Young departed in the 11th over of the game with the score reading just 53 for 3. However, after that, Conway along with skipper Latham added 100-plus to keep the Kiwis in the chase. Conway raked up his maiden ODI half ton before getting run out while trying to steal a single. Latham, however, continued and kept going. Bangladesh were really poor in the field as they put down a few chances. Latham and Neesham used the chances given and took the team close with their 76-run stand. Neesham holed out in search of quick runs but Latham continued and converted the half ton into a scintillating century to take the team home. Mitchell played his part by scoring 12 off 6.

    • Excellent run chase from the Kiwis and they have sealed the 3-match ODI series with a game to go. Just terrific from New Zealand and the skipper leading from the front, in front of his home crowd is extra special. Bangladesh had their chances with the ball but they just didn't pick it up. A number of dropped chances and sloppy fielding didn't help their cause one bit and they have been hammered again!

    • James Neesham is in now.

    • DRINKS! An excellent partnership between these two kept the Kiwis in this run chase nicely. However, the excellent piece of effort from the skipper who himself got run out means that the visitors are back in the game. Another wicket here and they will be right on top. Tom Latham will have to stay till the end now, if the hosts are to seal the deal. This is surely going down the wire now.

    • 33.4Taskin Ahmed to Devon Conway. out, OUT! CONWAY IS SHORT! Just what Bangladesh needed and it is their skipper who has provided them the wicket. Did it with the bat earlier on and now in the field! This is tossed up on off, Conway pushes it towards mid off and takes off. Tamim gets to the ball and has a shy at the bowler's end. He hits. Bangladesh are celebrating, it is taken upstairs and replays show that Conway is out. Big, big breakthrough as this stand was taking the game away from Bangladesh. New Zealand still on top but Bangladesh will feel they now have a chance to put the Kiwis under pressure. 106 more needed.

    • Is that a wicket? Direct hits are always close and it is skipper Tamim who has hit the bull's eyes. Bangaldesh are looking confident here. Here comes the replay. Yes. GONE! Huge moment in the game.
