| CLOSE OF PLAY |
| New Zealand have won this Super Eight match very comprehensively by 9 wickets. They absolutely steamrolled Bangladesh in every aspect of the game and put on a professional show. They were led by their skipper Stephen Fleming who made a superb 102 not out and was accompanied by Marshall who made 50 not out thus ensuring the Kiwis reached their target with ease losing just one wicket and in just 29.2 overs. New Zealand now look all set to reach the last four while Bangladesh are yet to prove that they even deserve to be in the Super Eights with two poor shows so far. Man of the Match is awarded to Shane Bond. |
