Bangladesh were looking to secure their first-ever T20 series triumph over the Blackcaps after winning the first two games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>They got off to a flying start in chase of New Zealand&#39;s modest score of 128-5 when Mohammad Naim blasted Jacob Duffy for two fours in the first over. But the innings unravelled from there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>McConchie trapped opener Liton Das leg-before for 15 to get the Blackcaps up and running before Patel dismissed Mahedi Hasan and Shakib Al Hasan in the same over. There was no looking back from there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>All-rounder Rachin Ravindra bowled Naim before Patel dismissed skipper Mahmudullah Riyad and Afif Hossain off consecutive balls to leave Bangladesh reeling at 43-6.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>Mushfiqur Rahim tried to salvage the chase but was left standing alone on 20 after Colin de Grandhomme picked up the final wicket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;A very good performance. We were able to build partnerships with the bat even though we lost wickets up front, got to a par score and bowlers did a fantastic job,&quot; New Zealand skipper Tom Latham said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Henry Nicholls top-scored for the Blackcaps with 36 off 29 balls, marshalling his team&#39;s recovery in an unbroken 66-run sixth-wicket stand with Tom Blundell (30) when New Zealand were teetering at 62-5. Medium-pacer Mohammad Saifuddin was the home team&#39;s best bowler with 2-28.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong> <a href=\"www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-series\/india-tour-of-england-2021\">India tour of England, 2021 <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Bowlers did a great job to restrict them. We started well with the bat but couldn&#39;t capitalise and lost wickets in a cluster. Hopefully, we will be back strong next game,&quot; Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah said. The fourth match of the series will be held on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n",
