During the chase, Finn Allen and Devon Conway provided a dream start to New Zealand innings. They added 117 runs for the first wicket partnership. Finn Allen played a match winning knock of 62 in 42 balls. He hit 1 four and 6 massive sixes to seal the deal for New Zealand.

Bangladesh have lost their previous match against New Zealand by 8 wickets.

Bangladesh batted first and they posted a modest total of 137 for 8 in 20 overs. Nazmul Hossain Shanto played superbly and scored 33 runs off 29 deliveries. The rest of the top order couldn't lay a great foundation for the middle order to follow up on.
