60.6
Boult to Abu Jayed, out Bowled!! Cleaned up by a yorker. Jayed stepped away from the line looking to carve it through the off-side, but it snuck right through him to rattle the base of the stumps. Seven wickets in the session for New Zealand as Bangladesh fold for 211. Abu Jayed b Boult 4(6) [4s-1]

58.6
Boult to Mustafizur, out Bowled!! Plenty of guffaws from the New Zealanders as Mustafizur commits quite a blunder in judgement. He shoulders arms to a full ball that skids through to crash into off stump. Wouldn't want to see that again. Mustafizur b Boult 0(2)
58.5
Boult to Mustafizur, no run, full ball angled in on leg, deflects off Mustafizur's pad to short leg as he misses the flick
58.4
Boult to T Islam, out Lbw!! Full and straight from Boult, smashes Islam's front pad and gets the decision in his favour. Islam's head fell over into the off-side, thus swaying his balance while looking to flick this delivery. He was struck in front of middle and leg, decides to go for the review, but loses it as ball-tracking shows it would've hit leg stump flush. T Islam lbw b Boult 8(35) [4s-1]
