One of the highlights of Bangladesh's Test victory was their out-bowling of New Zealand. In the second innings, Ebadot Hossain grabbed 6 for 46, with his second stint spanning the fourth evening and fifth morning. He took three wickets in seven balls after breaking a critical third wicket stand between Will Young and Ross Taylor. The next day, he bowled Taylor and Kyle Jamieson for the first time in eight years, completing the first five-for by a Bangladeshi fast bowler. Bangladesh also had a few standout performances throughout the game. Mahmudul Hasan Joy, a newcomer, remained tough throughout his 228-ball 78. Mominul Haque, the captain, top-scored in the first innings and ensured the pursuit went smoothly. After the initial setback, Najmul Hossain Shanto and Liton Das were able to play freely.

After the opening graft revealed Bangladesh's youthful hitters could alter gears, Najmul Hossain Shanto and Liton Das were able to play freely. Expect a retaliation from New Zealand in Christchurch. Despite winning the first game, Bangladesh is once again the underdog. People at home are ecstatic that they were able to defeat such a strong home squad.
