New Zealand needed just over 21 overs Saturday to overtake Bangladesh`s total of 131 and win the first of three one-day cricket internationals by eight wickets.
Bangladesh, recently out of managed isolation, was never comfortable in unfamiliar batting conditions at the University Oval and was bowled out by New Zealand in only 41.5 overs. Mahmudullah`s 27 from 54 balls was its highest score. After Martin Guptill crashed 38 runs from 19 balls with three fours and four sixes at the top of the order, New Zealand was always on target to win plenty of overs to spare.
