New Zealand vs Bangladesh 2021, 3rd T20I: Blackcaps Complete Whitewash After Another Dominant Victory In Rain-Curtailed Game

In the rain-curtailed last game of the three-match T20I series, the hosts New Zealand claimed another big victory by 65 runs against the visitors Bangladesh at Eden Park (Auckland). With this victory, the hosts Blackcaps won this T20I series by a 3-0 margin.

Due to raining and wet ground, the match was forced to get delayed and it finally started more than two hours later than the scheduled time as it became the 10-over game. After Bangladesh stand-in captain Liton Das chose to field first, New Zealand scored 141/4 (10 overs). Later, the visitors were bundled out for just 76 runs.
