A solid opening partnership between Mohammad Naim and Liton Das, complemented by a great finishing by Mahmudullah, has pushed Bangladesh to 141 for 6 in the second T20i against New Zealand. When Liton departed after slogging a six, Mushfiqur Rahim perished first ball to put Rachin Ravindra on a hat-trick. As Bangladesh went past 100 and entered the final fifth over, the duo were itching to go big and boost the run rate. Naim took on Ravindra and sent one straight to long off. The skipper then carried the Bangladesh innings, driving and cutting hard to stay unbeaten.
