New Zealand clinches series
NAPIER: Bold batting carried New Zealand to a 102-run win over Bangladesh in the rain-shortened second ODI here on Friday.
The victory helped the Kiwis take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
Jamie How, Peter Fulton and Jacob Oram made half-centuries as New Zealand reached 335 for five.
The tourists were 181 for six when rain stopped play seven overs early. New Zealand’s winning margin was determined by the Duckworth-Lewis system.
The Bangladesh openers Tamim Iqbal (43) and Zunaed Siddique (15) gave their team a solid base with a partnership of 63 for the first wicket but their quick dismissals and the loss of Mohammad Ashraful for three left the team struggling at 68 for three.
Aftab Ahmed top-scored with 54 but made his runs from 78 balls as Bangladesh’s hopes gradually faded away before finally being extinguished by rain. — AP
