The win in the rain-affected match in Dhaka ensured the three-match series was levelled 1-1 after the second game was rained out.On Saturday, rain interrupted the Bangladesh innings for nearly two hours after it came down hard at 2.37pm local time. Play resumed at 4.30pm, and the match was reduced to 15 overs per side.New Zealand, however, bowled Bangladesh out for 102 in the 15th over, with Josh Clarkson taking 3 for 9. Later, it was Jacobs who struck 62 off 31 balls, including five fours and three sixes, to get them home with 20 balls to spare.Shoriful's burst offers hopeShoriful Islam gave Bangladesh a stunning start in their defense.
