It was a stunning display of bowling and fielding by the Kiwis in their second game against Bangladesh. They opted to field first and with some clinical bowling performance they folded Bangladesh under 250. Fans on Twitter heaped praise on the New Zealand team for their stellar bowling performance.

But Matt Henry picked 4 again!

I would still prefer #TimSouthee to partner @trent_boult #NZvBAN #ICCWorldCup2019

Too easy for Kiwis?

New Zealand definitely favorites to chase 244 down, but if Shakib & Miraz do well, we can make them sweat. #Tigers really lack a lower order hitter, a definite weakness which oppositions can exploit. #RiseOfTheTigers #CWC19 #NZvsBAN #BANvNZ #NZvBAN

Santner was too good today!

Santner is making a statement today. This has been seriously good bowling. #NZvBAN #BANvNZ #cwc19

Excellent display of fielding!

Ain't gonna lie, New Zealand are fielding well, it's not going amazingly well for Bangladesh. #BANvNZ

Santner was giving tough time to Bangladesh!

Santner’s mystery spin is completely confusing the Bangles. #banvnz #CWC

They just needed one solid partnership!

Ban in rebuilding phase probably at wrong time. They needed at least one of Shakib and Mushfiqur to bat longer. #BANvNZ

That was harsh!

Always know mosaddek is a total waste of space #NZvBAN

Absolutely!

All of us thought it was going to be a 350 World Cup. Average score so far is 240 and we are starting to getting good contests. This is nice!

VIDEO | Kagiso Rabada’s 146kph thunderbolt smashes Shikhar Dhawan’s bat into tworead next

From the very first ball that Kagiso Rabada bowled today, he had only one intent - to take wickets on every delivery - and that inspired him to bowl every delivery above 140kph. In one such instance, his 146kph low full toss kissed Shikhar Dhawan’s bat in such a way that it took a part with it.
