Kiwis will bat.

Mustafizur should be back for BD.

Plenty of cricket coming up. Also in Aus and SA.

i hadn't realised this was an ODI tonight

Mustafizur back for Bangladesh after being out injured for awhile

New Zealand Team
MJ Guptill, TWM Latham, KS Williamson*, NT Broom, JDS Neesham, C Munro, L Ronchi†, MJ Santner, TG Southee, LH Ferguson, TA Boult
Bangladesh Team
Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Soumya Sarkar, Mahmudullah, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim†, Sabbir Rahman, Mosaddek Hossain, Mashrafe Mortaza*, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed

Kiwis should win at home.

BD have got a 30year old in the side. I thought 30yr BD cricketers were terminated, as in Logan's Run. They never seem to get past that age.

golden arm of mustafizur strikes

he looks so innocuous bowling at around 75-80mph but just gets enough lateral movement

Just the man the crowd didn't want to see get out.

Bangladesh outperformed in both departments

New Zealand bowled with discipline. They didn't.

New Xealand kept run rate up. They didn't.

guptill out early again today

bangladesh made a few changes for this game

with how the ball is nipping around at the start here mustafizur will probably be disappointed to be rested

Something of a recovery from the Kiwis though.

sun came out and all the movement stopped

could be a costly drop of williamson, albeit it wasn't easy

Nelson always looks like it would be a great place to watch a game of cricket

If a touch cold.
