Yesterday I said in one of my posts that if Bangladesh can take 5 wickets on the fourth day then Bangladesh will win going to the fifth day. I said 5 wickets but Bangladesh took 7 wickets, it probably won't be too late to take the remaining three wickets for Bangladesh on the fifth day because it is difficult for the batsmen to bat on the wicket on the fifth day and then again there is only one professional batsman on the wicket. Even if Daryl Mitchell is not out, this wicket will not be so easy for those batting at the other site.
Taijul Islam truns the ball around 4 degrees and 5 degrees, if the ball truns so much then it is very difficult for the batsmen to bat on such wickets.

Bangladesh quickly took the remaining New Zealand wickets quickly today and wrapped up the match in the first session of today's play. They won by 150 runs and it is indeed a big and important win for them.

Taijul Islam took 6 wickets in the 2nd innings making him the player of the match.

It was a disappointing performance from the New Zealand team. They need to improve on their batting and they do not have much time as the 2nd and the final test will start on December 06 at Mirpur.
