The New Zealand tour of Bangladesh that started with a nightmare in Dunedin ended in an extremely one-sided fight in Auckland. Rain brought down the game at Eden Park in 10 overs, with Martin Guptill's 44 off 19 balls and Finn Allen's 71 off 29 balls. Bangladesh is the second team to be bowled out for less than 10 overs in the International Twenty20, with Turkey topping the list. Before the match, Soumya Sarkar had said that if you want to win, you have to do well in batting, bowling, and fielding. In Auckland, Bangladesh failed in three departments. After winning the toss and electing to field, Bangladesh bowling attack seemed to be lost before Guptill-Allen, Bangladesh has maintained a consistent slippery slope in the fielding, and after these two, the batting has also been overwhelmed by the weight of failure. And New Zealand has done just the opposite.

Batting on a strangely shaped field in Eden Park, they are relentlessly aggressive. The variety of pace in bowling, knuckleball, line-length were all great, legspinner Todd Astle, playing for the first time in the series, took 4 wickets in 2 overs, captain Tim Southee took 3 wickets. They did not miss the opportunity in fielding, their great performance in front and behind the wicket ended their 'perfect' summer. Liton Das, who won the toss and elected to field, replaced Mahmudullah, who was ruled out due to injury. Guptill started the storm with six off Nasum's half-tracker in the third ball of the innings, scoring 45 runs with Allen in 3 overs of Powerplay. Allen gave the opportunity twice in the 4th over, but the ball raised in the sky melted and went out to the Bangladesh fielders. In the 6th over, Bangladesh broke the tie with Mahedi. Guptil was caught. Earlier, he hit four after two sixes in a row, but even after returning, he left the wound on Bangladesh. Glenn Phillips was sent to New Zealand to replace Devon Conway, who gave Allen great company.

Allen got the first fifty of his international career off 18 balls, the second-highest for New Zealand in the Twenty20 joint. However, after the fifth, he gave another chance, which Bangladesh also missed. In the 9th over, Shariful returned Phillips, before that Phillips, who was the best in the previous match, made 14 off 6 balls. Shariful conceded 9 runs in that over, with the first over in the innings being the second-lowest overall. Bangladesh had to go to the last over to stop Allen, but he caught a ramp shot in Taskin's slower. New Zealand has set a record by then. They hit 10 sixes with 12 fours in the innings. New Zealand's 141 runs in 10 overs or less are now the highest in the International Twenty20. In fact, Bangladesh dropped out of the match in the first innings. But there is nothing to lose. Then Soumya Sarkar turned into a great return catch caught with a dive in front after the inside-edge after the Southee knock after two fours, while captain Liton called for a golden call by being bold while scooping. Then, Naeem Sheikh, Nazmul Shanto became the victim of Astle. The first one caught, the next one bowled. Astel had great variations in leg-spin. Afif Hossain, who once survived for a short time, has just been stumped, Mahedi has caught at midwicket.

Ever since then, the question has been whether Bangladesh will be able to play 10 overs. They didn't even try to do that, Mosaddeq came back with the next ball even though he blocked the Southee's hat-trick ball. Earlier, Taskin and Shariful were bowled by Lockie Ferguson and Adam Milner respectively. Then Nasum was caught by Phillips. In 9.3 overs, Bangladesh hit 10 boundaries - 5 fours and six sixes. The numbers in New Zealand's innings were 12 and 10. On this day, Bangladesh was lagging behind not only in the number of boundaries but also in everything countable or uncountable.
