In New Zealand's case, it's to hunt down the last seven Bangladesh wickets for as few runs as possible and press for victory. Bangladesh, who start today at 66 for three, just 122 runs ahead, must occupy the crease, and get runs, for as long as possible. They'll settle for the draw, despite having been the dominant team for the first two and a half days of the match. ''If we can keep taking wickets in clumps and if they don't build any partnerships that's the key for us." A defeat would mean Bangladesh holding the record for the highest first innings total and still losing a test.
