Ferguson collects the trophy and joins his team-mates as they pose for the photographs. All smiles in the New Zealand camp. They had failed to win a single game in their last two visits to Bangladesh in the 50-over format. They were beaten comprehensively in their last two ODI series as well. However, this relatively inexperienced New Zealand side has emerged victorious under challenging conditions. Only five from this set-up are in the World Cup squad and they still managed to deliver the goods. Bangladesh too were without some of their main players. But they've now lost two ODI series in a row at home and had a disappointing Asia Cup campaign. Not a good sign heading into a major tournament and their batting unit hasn't clicked for a while. Bangladesh have just announced the World Cup squad and there's B0$ On that note, it's time to bring the curtains down on this series. Until next time, it's goodbye from all of us down here.
B0$ We are very chuffed. Some ups and down, the boys fought hard throughout, happy with the win. The way Bangladesh batted in the first 25 overs, we were under a lot of pressure. Fortunately we picked up wickets. This week has been about winning the series, we have had a good week. We are always building as a team towards what's next.
B0$ Pretty pleasing. We've been here for the T20s, we know the wickets can be tough at times. Credit to the batters to the way we adapted in all the matches. Credit to the whole bowling team. The low total allowed me to soak in the pressure. When you play international cricket, that's the test, it's tough cricket here.
B0$ The World Cup is just around the corner. To come away with a win, first since 2008, it's cool. Different times, this group has played a lot together. We gel well together on and off the field. The conditions (for the World Cup) might be similar, we'll take the confidence.
B0$ Our batsmen didn't score big despite everyone getting starts. We are not too much worried about our batting. If I had batted till the end, it would have been a different situation. We need two big partnerships, we couldn't today. Hopefully all batsmen take responsibility in the next match. Everyone's prepared well, looking forward to the World Cup.
B0$ New Zealand 2 -- 0 Bangladesh. A clinical performance from the visitors.
