    Good start from Bangladesh. They will be more than happy with this start.

    Bangladesh have packed that off side to tempt Devon Conway into a booming drive.

    New Zealand are still favourites on WinViz but it is closing in.

  3. NZ 19-2published at 4 overs

    Rachin Ravindra is named after Indian greats Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar.

    Coincedentally, I happened to be named after South African fielding supremo Jonty Rhodes.

    In terms of cricketing ability, that's where the similarities end.

    Six runs and a wicket came from that last over.

  4. Who is Nahid Rana?published at 13:29 Greenwich Mean Time 24 February

    This is just Nahid Rana's 10th international match but the 22-year-old fast bowler is already developing quite the reputation.

    His ability to clock speeds in excess of 150kph - or 93.2mph if you prefer - has led to suggestions that Nahid is Bangladesh's fastest ever bowler.

    Quite the feat in itself but even more remarkable when you consider that he did not bowl with a hard cricket ball until his late teens, having grown up playing taped tennis ball cricket.

    “The opportunity to play against the best cricketers in the world is the highest form of inspiration,” he said ahead of his first ICC tournament.

    He has already shown he is capable of mixing it with the best in Test cricket, claiming the wicket of Babar Azam as he impressed in Bangladesh's series win over Pakistan.

    While his pace is what makes Rana really stand out, he is more concerned with his rhythm and release.

    "But then again, when you see or hear that the pace is around 150kph, that’s a nice feeling,” he admitted.

    The only downside for Nahid as he continues his rise in the cricketing world is a hectic schedule that will limit the time he gets to spend on his two somewhat contrasting hobbies: fishing and riding his motorbike.

    Bangladesh fans will be hoping that Nahid does not need his bike to hit those high speeds at this Champions Trophy.

    Rachin Ravindra is the new man in and it takes him just two balls to pick up his first boundary of the day.

    Nahid Rana offered width, and a clip from Ravindra's bat sent the ball racing through the leg side.

    Maybe the previous delivery pushed Kane Williamson back. Unusual late footwork from Williamson.

    Something we don't see much of.

    Williamson c Mushfiqur b Rana 5 (NZ 15-2)

    Nahid Rana gets him this time!

    Another ball from Rana finds the thinnest of outside edges on Kane Williamson's bat.

    Mushfiqur Rahim takes what is a simple catch.

    Work to do for New Zealand.

  8. NZ 13-1published at 3 overs

    Two dot balls end that over of eight runs.

    The express pace of Nahid Rana will continue from the other end.

  9. NZ 13-1published at 2.4 overs

    Get the London buses analogy out, Devon Conway has done it again.

    Another four, piercing the gap in the field and finding one more boundary at point.

    Brilliant batting on display.

    Taskin Ahmed getting greedy and getting his line slightly wrong.

    Too wide, he has got to get the line tighter to the off stump.

  11. NZ 9-1published at 2.3 overs

    It takes nine balls, but New Zealand finally score a run off Taskin Ahmed.

    It is Devon Conway with a gorgeous cover drive and the left-hander finds four.

    New Zealand are still strong favourites on WinViz despite that first-over wicket.

  13. NZ 5-1published at 2 overs

    A five run over comes from Nahid Rana, who bowled really well and caused plenty for the experienced Devon Conway and Kane Williamson to think about.

    Taskin Ahmed took a wicket-maiden with his last over and will continue here.

    Dear, oh dear. New ball, you're up against it and you have to take wickets.

    Why wouldn't you have two catchers in there?

  15. NZ 5-1published at 1.5 overs

    Kane Williamson is very fortunate that this is not a Test match.

    The first ball Williamson faces leads to a thin outside edge that was begging for second slip to take the catch. Just one problem, there is no fielder there.

    Right ball, wrong format, for Nahid Rana.

  16. NZ 0-1published at 1.3 overs

    The express pace of Nahid Rana is causing Devon Conway to do a lot of watching and not a lot of shot-making.

    Bangladesh are starting in the opening exchanges of this innings.

    That was a beautiful delivery.

    Just what Bangladesh will have wanted. Will Young will be disappointed with that shot.

    What a delivery. This could be the breakthrough Bangladesh need.

    Young b Taskin 0 (NZ 0-1)

    That's a beauty!

    Taskin Ahmed removes the in-form Will Young, bowling him through the gate.

    There was in swing and Young played all around that as it clattered into the stumps behind him.

    A superb start for Bangladesh.

  19. NZ 0-0published at 0.3 overs

    Taskin Ahmed is getting some early testers into Will Young, who is yet to get off the mark.

    There's plenty of pace and bounce, which will please Taskin.

    The players are back out in the middle to get this second innings under way.

    Taskin Ahmed has the ball in hand and Will Young will open, partnered by Devon Conway.
