Bangladesh by 48 runs in Christchurch on Wednesday to book their place in the Twenty20 tri-series final. The hosts now face Pakistan on Friday, also in Christchurch, in the final of a series which is a tune-up for this month's T20 World Cup in Australia.

AS IT HAPPENEDFresh from dispatching Pakistan in a nine-wicket victory on Tuesday, New Zealand put in another strong batting display to set Bangladesh a target of 208, but the visitors only managed 160-7.

New Zealand rested captain Kane Williamson as his side comfortably backed up Sunday's eight-wicket win over Bangladesh to underline their World Cup credentials.

A third straight defeat means Bangladesh cannot reach the tri-series final and their match against Pakistan on Thursday is a dead-rubber.
