With Bangladesh going strong and giving almost nothing to New Zealand bowlers to pounce on, Wagner finally found Mominul Haque's edge that went straight to keeper, when the batter was on 9 off 57 balls. However, after several replays, it was concluded that Wagner had overstepped and Haque was saved.

After the over ended, Wagner was still fuming over the decision and was adamant that it was not a no-ball. His voice was caught in the stump-mic where he even abused and stand-in captain Tom Latham patting his back.
