DHAKA :New Zealand beat Bangladesh by four wickets on the fourth day of the second test on Saturday to level the two-match series at 1-1 as Ajaz Patel ripped through the Asian side with six wickets before his batting colleagues secured victory.
The David Warner vs Mitchell Johnson saga caught the entire cricketing world off guard. Seeing Johnson oppose David Warner's selection in the Australian Test team for the Pakistan series, as well as his 'hero's sendoff', many Aussie cricketers have tried to neutralise the controversy. Even South Africa great AB de Villiers reacted to the controversy, asking the Australia duo to sort the feud themselves and not let the spat get dragged on in public. De Villiers also feels that this isn't the end of the saga yet.
David Warner brushed off scathing criticism from former teammate Mitchell Johnson over his selection for Australia's Test series against Pakistan, saying on Friday: "Everyone's entitled to their own opinions."
The David Warner vs Mitchell Johnson saga has been going on for a while, with the latter criticising the selection committee over the Australian opener's selection in the Test squad for the Pakistan series. In what would be Warner's final Test assignment, Johnson said that the southpaw doesn't deserve the 'hero's sendoff' that he is getting, leaving many in the cricketing fraternity fuming. Days after Johnson first wrote on the topic in a column, Warner finally broke his silence on the comments made by his former teammate.
Bangladesh vs New Zealand 2nd Test Day 3, Live Updates:After Day 2 of the ongoing second Test between Bangladesh and New Zealand got washed out due to rain, all eyes will be on the third day.

Bangladesh were all out for just 172 in an innings where Mushfiqur Rahim became just the second batsman in Test history to be dismissed for obstructing the field. (Live Scorecard)
Former Australian cricket team skipper Ricky Ponting is ready to step in as 'mediator' to solve the ongoing spat between former teammates David Warner and Mitchell Johnson. The controversy erupted after Johnson wrote in his column that Warner's selection for the Test series against Pakistan was due to the fact that he announced his intention to retire after the series and not because of his form. Since then, both cricketers have taken aim at each other with other colleagues also joining in on the conversation.
MELBOURNE : David Warner has shrugged off Mitchell Johnson's withering criticism of his selection in Australia's test squad as a "headline" for the home summer, saying his former team mate is entitled to his opinion.
Mushfiqur Rahim achieved a dubious feat as the veteran Bangladesh cricketer became the second batter ever in Tests to be dismissed for obstructing the field. The incident happened during Day 1 of the second Test between New Zealand and Bangladesh in Dhaka after Mushfiqur swatted the ball away from his stumps after defending a delivery from Kyle Jamieson. Social media were filled with funny comments regarding the rare and bizarre dismissal with former England skipper Michael Vaughan coming up with a special message. "Welcome to the very exclusive Handled ball club @mushfiqur15 .. only proper players are members .." he posted on X (formerly known as Twitter).
