Bangladesh's out-bowling of New Zealand was one of the highlights of their Test triumph. Ebadot Hossain took 6 for 46 in the second innings, and his second stint lasted from the fourth evening to the fifth morning. After breaking a crucial third wicket hold between Will Young and Ross Taylor, he got three wickets in seven balls. For the first time in eight years, he bowled Taylor and Kyle Jamieson the next day, completing the first five-for by a Bangladeshi fast bowler. Throughout the game, Bangladesh had a couple notable performances. Mahmudul Hasan Joy, a newbie, batted 228 balls and scored 78 runs. The skipper, Mominul Haque, top-scored in the first innings and ensured the chase went smoothly. Najmul Hossain Shanto and Liton recovered from the initial setback. 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 opening graft revealed Bangladesh's youthful hitters could alter gears, Najmul Hossain Shanto and Liton Das were able to play freely. Expect 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.
