Dhaka: Bangladesh spinners made full use of the spin-friendly pitch and a depleted opposition batting line-up at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Mirpur, to shoot out New Zealand for 60, their joint-lowest T20I total, and register their first-ever win over Kiwis in the shortest format. The host won the series opener by seven wickets after the visitors equalled their lowest T20I score 60 against Sri Lanka in 2014. Spinners Mahedi Hasan, Nasum Ahmed and Shakib Al Hasan shared five wickets and conceded just 30 runs in 10 overs to lead the rout. Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman took 3/13 and right-arm pacer Mohammad Saifuddin took 2/7.More Related News
