Bangladesh's top order batsmen failed miserably with only Tamim Iqbal scoring 44 and Mahmudullah Riyad scoring 49. However, New Zealand could not bat properly due to rain and were bowled out for 254 runs before playing a full over in their innings. There was a golden opportunity for Bangladesh but due to poor performance Bangladesh were bowled out for just 168 runs. New Zealand's reference spinner Ish Sodhi picked up 6 wickets and destroyed Bangladesh's batting line-up to be bowled out for just 168 runs.
Bangladeshi pitches support spinners and that's why we saw Sodhi picking 6 wickets today. I don't know how long it will take before we can see a strong Bangladesh cricket team. Its almost 2 decades since Bangladesh got the test status and till now we see an average Bangladesh cricket side. Still 2 more matches to go and I dont think Bangladesh can win this series.
