BAN vs NZ highlights, Champions Trophy 2025: New Zealand beats Bangladesh by five wickets
Taskin. Yorker and the ball goes in the air and short cover fielder catches it. Bangladesh appeal that the ball had hit the Phillips’ toe but replays suggest it bounced off the pitch first. Not out. Short ball and Phillips pulls it towards midwicket for four. Scores are level. Bracewell scores the winning runs. New Zealand wins by five wickets.
Rana is back. Phillips ends the over with a four past point. Five off the over.
Rishad. SIX! Phillips goes over the bowler’s head and over the fence. Nine runs came in that over.
Rahman. Latham takes a quick single. A direct hit and Latham might be gone. OUT! He’s on the line that means he has to walk back after scoring 55.
Rahman. Just three runs came in that over.
Rishad. OUT! Ravindra is gone. Goes for a slog but doesn’t get enough power and is caught at deep midwicket. He goes for 112.
Glenn Phillips is off the mark with a single. Latham gets a single and reaches his fifty.
Ravindra is finding boundaries regularly. Latham too has been keen to sweep the spinners. Bangladesh bowlers don’t have any answers.
New Zealand is doing it pretty easily. 14 runs more added to the total in last two overs with ease.
Rana. Full on the pads and Latham places it towards fine leg for four. Century stand between the two. Ravindra takes a single and gets to his hundred off 95 balls. Brilliant knock.
Miraz. Four! Ravindra slog sweeps over midwicket. Ravindra finishes the over on 99 runs.
Rahman. Good over, just four runs off it.
Rishad. Ravindra cuts for four and enters his 90s. Nine runs came in that over.

Miraz. Ravindra and Conway continue to rotate the strike and get seven runs from the over.

Kyle Jamieson from the other end. Tanzid ties to pull but the ball goes towards mid on; lucky it fell short of the fielder. This time on the thigh pad and Tanzid places it towards square leg for four. SIX! Terrific shot. Length ball and Tanzid slaps it away towards midwicket.
Matt Henry with the new ball. Tanzid tucks the ball towards square leg and runs a double off the first ball. An appeal for LBW against Shanto, umpire says not out. New Zealand has reviewed after discussion. Pitching outside leg, New Zealand loses a review.
