    "editor1": "<p>Maiden centuries for Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell set up a crushing 164-run win for New Zealand in the third one-day international in Wellington on Friday, giving the hosts a series clean sweep.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Conway blasted 126 from 110 balls and Mitchell finished on 100 not out after New Zealand won the toss and elected to bat, making 318 for six.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bangladesh were never in the hunt for the 319 target, all out for 154 after 42.4 overs, with Mahmudullah&#39;s unbeaten 76 the only highlight as eight batsmen failed to reach double figures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Jimmy Neesham and Matt Henry did the damage for New Zealand with the ball, taking five for 27 and four for 27 respectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Paceman Rubel Hossain was the pick of the Bangladesh bowlers, with three for 70, but the tourists&#39; attack struggled on a green Basin Reserve wicket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;We were just not good enough,&quot; Bangladesh skipper Tamim Iqbal said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;No doubt the Black Caps played unbelievably well but we didn&#39;t perform. Sometimes the small things can hurt you, the (dropped) catches and the run-out chances.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Conway capitalised on the tourists&#39; woes and his century was just reward for the South Africa-born batsman, who has been in outstanding form since he was first selected for the Blacks Caps late last year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>His performances include 72 in the second Bangladesh ODI and an unbeaten 99 when he was left stranded in a Twenty20 match against Australia last month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mitchell looked like he would suffer a similar fate in Wellington before scrambling home to bring up his century on the last ball of the innings as wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim tried to stump him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I was just trying to swing as hard as I could, there were a few played and missed in there,&quot; Mitchell said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I&#39;ll take them any way they come. It&#39;s just nice to get the job done.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Both Conway and Mitchell were making only their third ODI appearances for New Zealand after debuting in the series opener against Bangladesh in Dunedin last week.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>New Zealand were looking shaky before their arrival after losing three wickets within 13 balls to slump to 57 for three.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Tom Latham and Conway consolidated with a 63-run partnership before the New Zealand skipper departed for 18.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>That was the cue for Conway and Mitchell to go on the attack, combining for a 159-run stand that put the match beyond Bangladesh&#39;s reach.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Openers Tamim Iqbal and Soumya Sarkar were dismissed in the first five overs and a steady stream of wickets prevented any meaningful partnerships forming.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The teams will met next in a three-match Twenty20 series opening in Hamilton on Sunday.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
