After winning the toss, New Zealand skipper Tom Latham decided to bat first. But no Kiwis batsman can make any impact in the match.
Both Tom Latham and Henry Nicholls scored 18-run which is the best by a New Zealand batsman while no other batsman can score even double-digit.

All the Bangladeshi bowlers shared wickets among them as Mustafizur Rahman picked up three, Nasum Ahmed, Shakib Al Hasan and Mohammad Saifuddin picked up two for each.
None of the New Zealand players from the Bangladesh touring party will feature in the forthcoming T20 World Cup.
Bangladesh however are bolstered by the return of Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das who were unavailable in the last T20 series against Australia, which Bangladesh won by 4-1.
