12.48pm Out come Bangladesh's openers. Shadman Islam in the game again, he walks out with Mahmudul Hasan Joy. Bangladesh's bowlers have brought one of their best overseas performances in recent times. Can the batters follow? Southee has the ball. Three slips and a gully for him. He's over the wicket.

Neil: "You'd think with this pitch still doing things and the bowling attack NZ have, that this score should be enough for NZ (especially with a fired up Wagner who will be itching for some action after missing out in India)"

Robert Lamb: "Wow that is disappointing if you are a black caps fan. Great for Bangladesh. Last 6 wickets for only 100 runs and the lower middle order really gave away their wickets. Were it not for Conway's discipline NZ would have posted a very mediocre score. Strong evidence of the lack of Test cricket and the mindset that goes with it. Bangladesh should feel confident they can bat themselves into dominance over the next two days."

Phil: "Nicholls' wicket was taken by Jamieson, Southee and Boult: what choice did he have but try to manufacture runs when they were playing so irresponsibly?"

Jay: "Bangladesh doing brilliantly here , great fight shown by this young bowling lineup "

Brendon : "A bit disappointing how we have batted in this session as was hoping for 400 plus runs but not to be but we have the runs on board so anything is possible "

12.39pm It's gone down pretty quickly for New Zealand at the end there. No one can fault Bangladesh for letting this innings slip away from them at many points, and their persistent discipline has been rewarded today. New Zealand add 70 to their overnight score and are bowled out before lunch. Nicholls the only one with any control for them this session, looked good, scored at a good rate too, and might have been good for a hundred if he had had more time. Bangladesh's spinners coming into play today and doing it quickly. They bat in about ten minutes.
