Dhaka: Skipper Mahmuditlah Riyad crashed into unbeaten 43 because Bangladesh defeated New Zealand by six goals at the fourth international twenty20 to seal five matches 3-1 in Dhaka on Wednesday.
Mahmuditlah guided the host 96-4 at 19.1 overs after four goal each of the left arm spinner Ahmed and Pacer left arm Mustafizur Rahman helped them a new Zealand bowl for 93 run at 19.3.
The visitors sniffed the opportunity as off-spinner Cole McConchie was dismissed the opening of the Liton Das (six) Spinner Arm early and left Ajaz Patel attacked twice at the same time to leave Bangladesh stutter in 32-3.
Patel dragged Shakib Al Hasan (eight) of his wrinkles for a confused cleavage and Bincul, the uterus for three ball ducks later in the sixth of the innings.
Mohammad Naim and Mahmuditlah led the innings with 35 walking in the fourth goal to control Bangladesh.
Run-out Naim for 29 walks with a replacement throw for Fielder Doug Bracewell from deep square feet reviving the chances of New Zealand.
But Mahmuditlah denied the further chance of New Zealand and sealed contests with six and four in consecutive overs to give Bangladesh from the first series of their win over the New Zealand format.
Mahmuditlah praised Bowler to win.
“Bowler does a good job once again to keep the whole New Zealand.
All bowlers, nasums, Mahedi, Mustafizur, busled well.
Batterts tried the best,” he said.
“We only need a good partnership in the middle and Naim and I tried it.” Man of the Match Nasum previously took his best 4-10 career to dismantle the top of New Zealand before Mustafizur mopping the tail with 4-12.
Will Young hold one end to do 46 of 48 balls but he did not have support from the previous tip before being dismissed by Mustafizur in the Final Ining.
“We are a little below par,” said the New Zealand captain Tom Latham.
“We saw 100-110 but credit to Bangladesh.
They left (well).
After some of the initial goals, they have it under control.
Mahmuditlah’s way is complete, credit to them,” he said.
Bangladesh won the first two matches by seven goats and four runs while New Zealand reduced the gap with a 52-run victory in the third match of Sunday.
The fifth match of this series will be held on Friday on the same land.
