Mount Maunganui: New Zealand Batsman Devon Conway continued a phenomenal increase in the cricket test, scoring 122 new days of New Zealand one of the first tests against Bangladesh in a strong position on Mount Maunganui on Saturday.
Only in the fourth test, and first since recovering from a broken hand, Conway lifted New Zealand from one for one to close the day at 258 with five with Henry Nicholls at 32 and Tom Blundell came out on the last ball for 11.

Mominul just puts himself for three overs before the second new ball and claims the precious scalp of Conway with harmless delivery with a Wicketkeeper Liton Das.
Bangladesh started the day well, put Zealand to bats and then claimed Tom Latham for one fourth.
An impressive stay Devon Conway ended at the oval bay.
Tickles one leg down.
Tom Blundell Will Join Henry Nich …

Conway the weather starts quickly with a quick Taskin Ahmed and Aslam Shoriful who finds swinging through the air and out of the field.
Shoriful made Latham get caught for one fourth and the next believed he had Conway who had not scored.
Devon Conway 💯 When from the watch area 👀 #NZVBAN https://t.co/dulxuuinne- Blackcaps (@BlackCaps) 1641011983000 The original decision does not come out and when Bangladesh proposes a replain that is not convincing and it remains with the referee’s call.
But after Conway and will experience young inches New Zealand up to 15 of the first 13 overs, the ball began to use, the field began to flatten under the sun caught fire and ran began to flow.
Conway lifted 50 with a magnificent pull shot that sent a high ball to the boundary fence and he followed with two of the same Mehidy Hasan crawl.
He posted his centuries in a more closed way with one single when he tapped short task delivery to the smooth feet, smoothly lost the two fields placed for foot catches.
Young looked comfortable, and survived the smooth edge at 27 where Bangladesh did not take and not appeal.
But when he entered his fifties, his calm began to decrease and after seeing the hookshot who had fallen in front of the Boundary Fielder, he called on a single who had never walked out.
Taylor, who entered the Oval Bay into a festive applause at the beginning of the second test from behind it, acted confidently up to 31 when he drove with extensive delivery but would not make the ball down with Shadman Island taking a sharp catch at the close.
Shoriful is the strongest Bangladesh Bowler with two for 53.
