    9.4 gets it in a bit tighter to Tamim now, and this time succeeds in drawing the edge as this is claimed by second slip. Looked like he was just getting away there, but he has to go. 27/2

    5.4 classic set-up from Boult. Rocked him with a shorter one earlier, before sending in this length ball which does too much for Imrul as it goes through the gate to knock back his off peg. Ends a torturous stay at the crease for Imrul, who I suspect would be happy to get back to his seat in the pavilion! 4/1

    27.4 comes down the ground to try and deposit Vettori over long on, but ends up getting a bottom-edge which lands to Anderson in the region, who takes it safely. Ends a really special knock from the No.3. Didn't really need to go for it, but perhaps the milestone had him lose his concentration just momentarily 117/3

    30.4 Shakib makes another vital breakthrough for Bangladesh as Guptill has to go after trying to clear the long on fielder, but ends up holing out to hm. Rubel was the catcher there. Has been an excellent century to give his team a platform from which to take Bangladesh on 164/3

    4.1 and Bangladesh have snagged the huge wicket of McCullum as Shakib flights one just outside off, with the bruiser looking to take on long off with another heave, but doesn't quite time it away as this one lands to the fielder in the deep, who is able to take it comfortably. Bangladesh will be might pleased to see the back of him 27/1

    4.5 Bangladesh have just taken another huge wicket as Kane departs from the oval after playing at this one which just holds up on him outside off, with this being sliced over uppishly to Tamim at cover. Shakib has proven the miracle worker with the ball so far. Bangladesh on top in Hamilton! 33/2

    41.2 Ross looking to slog-sweep this over cow corner as he is struck in front of middle and leg. Looked as plumb as they get, with Ross initially walking off before Corey intervened. Ross decides to go for the review. Quite a waste of a review DRS confirms this indeed was going on to hit timber. The only thing now is NZ are down a review as they enter this crucial period of the match. May come back to hurt them later... 219/5

    47.2 Nasir has the last laugh though as he rocks this Hamilton crowd into silence with a slightly quicker, flatter delivery that castle Anderson after he looked for the almighty heave over midwicket. Nasir lets out a roar of approval, and New Zealand now go seven down, with a big wicket back in the shed 269/7

    44.4 Shakib strikes for the fourth time today, and again in the first over of a spell, as Ronchi looked to take on the deep extra-cover by hitting wide of him, but probably should have gone straight back down as he ends up holing out to the fielder in the region. Helps to redress the scales somewhat as we get into the final portion of the innings 247/6
