19.6
Mustafizur to Latham, 1 run, Latham can only take a single off the final ball. Cutter, length ball, Latham muscles the pull to deep mid-wicket. Couldn't get the elevation and Bangladesh win by 4 runs to go 2-0 up!
19.5
Mustafizur to Latham, leg byes, 2 runs, full on the pads, worked away through backward square leg for a brace
19.5
Mustafizur to Latham, no ball, FOUR, oooh! Did the ball slip out of his hand? A head-high full toss, Latham crouches and is taken aback. He's got some wood (inside edge) as he sticks his vertical bat out and the ball dribbles away to the fine leg fence.
19.2
Mustafizur to Latham, 1 run, pitched up, drilled to long-off for just a single
18.5
Saifuddin to Latham, 1 run, full and on the pads, wristed through backward square leg
18.4
Saifuddin to Latham, no run, shapes up to scoop, Saifuddin sees that and bowls a full one wide of off. Latham adjusts and tries to work it the other way around by opening his bat-face, but misses. A muted appeal for caught-behind follows but Bangladesh decide against the review
18.3
Saifuddin to Latham, 2 runs, very full, leg-lined, flicked through backward square leg and Latham decides to come back for the second. Excellent throw from the deep, just adjacent to the sticks and Nurul Hasan breaks the stumps. The New Zealand captain is a couple of inches short of his crease. Oh wait! Did Nurul Hasan break the stumps before collecting the ball? The third umpire is having a look at that. Yup, he's dislodged the bails before the ball settled into his mitts. Not Out! Latham survives... Wow, what drama!
18.2
Saifuddin to Latham, FOUR, 107.9kph, slower ball from a shorter length, Latham walks across a long way and scoops it very fine. Almost over the keeper's head. Got it off the top part of the bat but enough wood to collect a boundary
18.1
Saifuddin to Latham, no run, 130.6kph, Saifuddin bowls a yorker outside off and Latham fails to connect. He looked to squeeze it behind square on the off-side
17.6
Mustafizur to Latham, 1 run, slower ball, high full toss and that's been heaved to long leg. Was it above waist? The umpire doesn't think so. Reckon Mustafizur is lucky to get away with that...
17.4
Mustafizur to Latham, 1 run, off-pace short of length, Latham crouches to sweep it to deep backward square leg
17.3
Mustafizur to Latham, FOUR, wow! That's a superb shot. 100.8kph, slow and full outside off, Latham walks across, gets low and swipes it over mid-wicket. Splits the gap between long-on and deep mid-wicket perfectly. The boundary brings up Latham's maiden T20I half-century! Can he take his team over the line?
16.6
Shakib to Latham, FOUR, incredible shot! Latham backs away and exposes all his sticks. Shakib targets the stumps and bowls a full one. The New Zealand captain superbly lifts it inside-out over extra cover for a one-bounce four
16.5
Shakib to Latham, 2 runs, 90kph, Latham walks forward and swats this length ball to long-on's left
15.5
Mahedi Hasan to Latham, 1 run, knocked through mid-on and the batsmen decide against the second
15.4
Mahedi Hasan to Latham, no run, flighted ball, full in length, Latham misses the sweep as he's beaten on the inside edge. Wasn't too far away from the off-stump
14.6
Nasum Ahmed to Latham, no run, darted full, Latham brings out the revese sweep for the third time today and makes the best contact but he hits it straight to short third man. Three runs and a wicket off the over
14.4
Nasum Ahmed to Latham, 1 run, in-turner, Latham late-dabs to short third man off the back foot
13.6
Saifuddin to Latham, SIX, 118.8kph, much-needed six for New Zealand! Length ball, no real pace on it, Latham sits down on one leg and clobbers it over deep square leg. Came off the meat of the bat. 85m six! 11 runs off the over
13.5
Saifuddin to Latham, no run, 115.7kph, pitched up, driven straight to extra cover off the front foot
13.4
Saifuddin to Latham, 2 runs, 116.3kph, moves across and glances in front of square on the on-side for a couple of runs

12.6
Mustafizur to Latham, no run, 112.8kph, half-volley outside off, Latham drives neatly off the front foot but can't get it past Rahim at extra cover. Just 3 runs off the over..
12.3
Mustafizur to Latham, 1 run, pitched up, push-driven to mid-off for a quick single
12.2
Mustafizur to Latham, no run, 108.9kph, big appeal for lbw and up goes the finger! Latham reviews. The batsman shuffled across a long way and missed the glance against this cutter. Fair delivery, no bat and HawkEye shows it to be missing leg! Wow. That looked pretty plumb to the naked eye but the ball-tracking predicts the ball to be going past the leg-stump. Successful review and Latham survives..
11.5
Saifuddin to Latham, 1 run, length ball outside off, guided to short third man for a quick single
11.4
Saifuddin to Latham, FOUR, 114.2kph, Saifuddin continues with the shortish length, Latham waits and short-arm-jabs the pull through mid-wicket. Speeds away
11.1
Saifuddin to Latham, 1 run, big mix-up! Fuller than good length, Latham taps it straight to backward point, calls his partner for a single and says 'no'. De Grandhomme is halfway down the pitch before turning around. The fielder misses the target at the bowler's end and CdG survives. The batsmen eventually take the single. Even if the fielder had thrown the ball to the bowler, reckon de Grandhomme would have been a goner!

Shakib to Latham, 1 run, 86.1kph, Latham moves leg-side to punch this length ball to long-off
10.3

10.2
Shakib to Latham, no run, 91.2kph, fullish ball darted across the left-hander, Latham gets down to sweep and fails to connect. Even the keeper doesn't gather it cleanly but it isn't costly
