Taylor gets struck on his pads of Nasir Hossain. Umpire raises his hands. But, a review has been sought for.

SIXER! Corey Anderson smashes one down to long-off. He made it as easy as it can get.

78 runs to get of 10 overs for the Kiwis. It tense out here at Seddon Park, Hamilton

Wicket. Elliott slashes at one but well held at deep point and he departs for 39. Good innings from the allrounder #nzvban #cwc15 ^CE

With wicket of Guptill, Shakib Al Hasan is now Bangladesh’s leading World Cup wicket-taker with 21, passing Abdur Razzak’s 20.#bbccricket

Grant Elliott is timing the ball like a perfect poached egg. 24 off 17. NZ need 97 off 15. Roughly the equivalent of 32 off 15 in the 1970s.

Elliott cracks a couple of fours off Rubel to release the pressure. Now it's Batting Powerplay time! #NZvBAN http://t.co/oFax4AOX4Q

110 runs needed of 16 overs. A tight contest on the cards!

A much needed fifty for Taylor as he has struggled to get one in the last seven matches.

50 for LRPL Taylor off 82 balls #NZvsBan #Cricket #CWC15 http://t.co/WPv3VsCDL5

CAUGHT! Shakib Al Hasan picks three of three. Guptill walks back after a wonderful 105.

This is Guptill's maiden hundred in World Cups. But, what is so special is that it has come at the best of occasions when his team was struggling early on in the chase.

So Only Pakistan and Afghanistan are the only team who doesn't have a individual Century in this World Cup... #NZvBAN
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) March 13, 2015

CENTURY! Guptill gets to his 6th ODI hundred off 88 balls. It's been a superb innings so far. #NZvBAN http://t.co/oFax4AOX4Q
— FirstpostSports (@FirstpostSports) March 13, 2015

Guptill falls into a heap, on 99. Looks like cramp. #nzvban #cwc15
— Andrew McGlashan (@andymcg_cricket) March 13, 2015

100 run stand up between Guptill and Taylor. Way to go mates!

Ross Taylor becomes the fourth NZ batsman to 5000 ODIs runs, behind Fleming, Astle and McCullum. #NZvBan #CWC15 http://t.co/zBZUdqD7HZ

23 overs up and the equation looks like this: 161 runs required of 23 overs for the Black Caps.

.@RossLTaylor and @Martyguptill have put on a partnership of 79 runs off 93 balls for the third wicket. #nzvban #backtheblackcaps ^PT
— BLACKCAPS (@BLACKCAPS) March 13, 2015

The review that wasn't taken for Guptill's appeal is proving out to be costly for Bangladesh.

Edged.......And just wide of the keeper. Guptill gets an outside edge off Rubel & it flies inches wide of Rahim. http://t.co/oFax4AOX4Q

NZ 95-2 off 17, Guptill dominant. Drinks. The cocktail cabinet is wheeled on. Guptill takes a mint julep with a splash of ketchup.

If @BLACKCAPS lose this tie, no one will be as happy as England. It will be a big relief for them that they aren't the only one #NZvsBAN

And as we retrospect, we learn that this the first time Mccullum has failed with the bat in this World Cup.

Fabulous stuff from Bangladesh. They send back New Zealand's in form batsman Kane Williamson. NZ- 33/2

McCullum planks Shakib straight to long-off. 27-1. Williamson planks Shakib straight to point. 33-2. Game on.
