  1. NZ 82-3published at 17.2 overs

    Target 237

    Tom Latham, who scored a century in New Zealand's Champions Trophy opener against Pakistan, has his first boundary of the day.

    A well-time drive through mid-on, brilliant shot.

  2. NZ 78-3published at 17 overs

    Target 237

    No boundaries, but four singles are taken in the over from the bowling of Nahid Rana.

    Mustafizur Rahman will continue with the ball in the next over.

  3. NZ 77-3published at 16.4 overs

    Target 237

    Almost a second wicket for Nahid Rana on his return to the attack.

    Rachin Ravindra pulls at a shorter ball. The shot has height, but nowhere near enough power.

    It just evades the diving Jaker Ali, who has only just returned to the field after that earlier injury.

    The second of Bangladesh's three wickets so far came when Nahid Rana got the better of the experienced Kane Williamson.

    Rana is coming back into the attack for the next over.

  5. NZ 74-3published at 16 overs

    Target 237

    Tom Latham is the new batter in and off his face ball, nurses the ball towards the third man fielder for a single.

    Three runs come from the over in total for New Zealand.

    That wicket has pushed WinViz closer together again but New Zealand are still strong favourites.

    Mustafizur Rahman, you clever boy.

    A gift onto Devon Conway's own stumps. Does that change the narrative of the game?

    They have broken a crucial partnership for New Zealand.

    Conway b Mustafizur 30 (NZ 72-3)

    Devon Conway has chopped on to his own stumps!

    There have been a few nervous inside edges from New Zealand today and finally, Bangladesh get the rewards.

    Mustafizur Rahmad gets the better of the left-hander, the ball had almost stopped bouncing when it clipped the stump but Bangladesh will not mind that one bit!

    A good partnership broken.

    There was a time when there was a real drought of fast bowlers in Bangladesh.

    The BCB [Bangladesh Cricket Board] started an initiative to find fast bowlers - it was called 'Pace Hunter'.

  10. NZ 71-2published at 15 overs

    Target 237

    Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra have had one or two near-misses of run-outs and mix-ups.

    Their latest sees the bails whipped off as Rachin Ravindra gets in for a single.

    Ravindra was safe, but there was hesitation on his way of getting there.

    Five singles come from the over in total.

    This partnership has made New Zealand strong favourites again.

  12. NZ 66-2published at 14 overs

    Target 237

    Three dot balls end that over, which only consisted of one single in total.

    Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra are both well set and between them, are on a partnership of more than 50.

  13. NZ 66-2published at 13.3 overs

    A couple of overs ago, Rachin Ravindra almost chopped onto his own stumps with an inside edge.

    Devon Conway has just played a similar shot, one that was even closer to a dismissal than what Ravindra faced.

    Conway survives, but encouragement for Mustafizur Rahman and Bangladesh.

    It's that time in the night where the pitch is offering very little assistance.

  15. NZ 65-2published at 13 overs

    Nothing in terms of boundaries, but seven runs do come from the latest Mehidy Hasan Miraz over.

    During the over, Rachin Ravindra moved past 1,000 career runs in ODI cricket.

    If Bangladesh beat NZ today and Pakistan beat Bangladesh later this week on Thursday, the India v NZ match will be the decider with all to play for, barring NRR. India are on a roll but NZ has always been their bogey team, so things could get quite interesting...

  17. NZ 58-2published at 12 overs

    Four dot balls end the over which bring that one single, via an overthrow.

    The over does end with a direct hit of the stumps, but Rachin Ravindra was comfortably in his crease.

  18. NZ 58-2published at 11.2 overs

    A run out chance for Bangladesh as Rachin Ravindra sets off for an adventurous single.

    Devon Conway didn't fancy it and sent him back.

    Tanzid Hasan gets the chance of a direct hit but misses with Ravindra well out of his crease.

    They do take the single after an overthrow.

    Bangladesh have struggled to turn the screw. The way Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway have batted, they have kept their heads above the water.

  20. NZ 57-2published at 11 overs

    A much better over from Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

    Just three singles are taken as the spinner keeps things rather tidy.
