Looks like it has been an exciting Test.

Sentimentality makes me want Bangladesh to edge a close last day encounter. But NZ seem to be good guys and are going through their own slump.

Bangladesh should defend the highest score of the match with some ease. Yet NZ are in striking distance. If Bangladesh are good enough (and NZ poor enough) to get themselves into this position, then they are good to win.

So I'll be looking for history being made when I wake up tomorrow morning.

The Kiwis will win this easily tomorrow, IMHO....

Redmond has set the foundation, and I just can't see Bangladesh defending a total like that now.

Nevermind India vs Aus, THIS is what test match cricket is all about.

NZ are on of the teams I like to see do well, but I still want Bangladesh to win this- a very close finish would be fantastic!

It would be great to see Bangladesh win but they seem to have gone off the boil in the NZ second innings.

Their spinners are the key to victory coupled with tight fielding. Final day track should offer more assistance to the spinners.

NZ won the Match. Bangladesh couldn't close the game even though they had a record total

Bangladesh gave a good fight, but wasn't enough to win a test. Good comeback by NZ

They haven't won it yet....

Though the writing is on the wall!

See what happens when Vettori promotes himself up the order?

Will he stay there, or will he put himself down to eight again when this match is over?

I hope he stays up he's more than capable, ive always thought for someone who's capable of decent knocks even hundreds he bats to low. As you say look what happens when he is up the order. Concerning though the margin they managed to beat them, although Bangladesh have improved in recent times they are no force in world cricket NZ should be seriously disapointed
