Conway powers Blackcaps to cruise past Bangladesh in Tri-series

CHRISTCHURCH: Opener Devon Conway starred with a glittering 70-run knock as New Zealand sealed a comprehensive eight-wicket victory over Bangladesh in Tri-series, here on Sunday.  

Bangladesh lost their second consecutive match in the ongoing Tri-series, whereas New Zealand secured their first win since both the teams were defeated by Pakistan on Friday and Saturday respectively.

Kiwi bowlers stormed through the middle order and reduced Bangladesh to 137/8 in the allotted 20 overs after they opted to field first.

Trent Boult, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee and Michael Bracewell bagged two wickets each while Bangladesh batters failed to put up an impressive show as opener Najumul Hasan Shanto top-scored for the side with a cautious 33 off 29.

New Zealand, on the other hand, took the Bangladesh bowlers to the cleaners as Conway smashed seven fours and a six during his unbeaten knock while Glenn Philips played a superb cameo as he hit 23 off 9, laced with two four and as many sixes to take his side home.

Kiwi Opener Fin Allen scored 16 off 18 while skipper Kane Williamson contributed with 30 off 29 as the hosts chased the target in 17.5 overs for the loss of just two wickets.

New Zealand will now face Pakistan for the second time in Tri-series on Tuesday before they lock horns with Bangladesh again on Wednesday.
