Cricket: Black Caps warm-up match peters out to a draw

9.15am

The three-day tour match against a Bangladesh side has ended in a tame draw for the Black Caps.

They had plenty of batting practice in the match against a Bangladesh 11 in Savar.

But the match has petered out after New Zealand opted to spend most of the final day with the pads on.

The Black Caps wrapped up the home side's first innings at 208 all out to take a 136 run lead early in the first session of the day.

New Zealand then smashed 351 for five declared with Nathan Astle belting 113 and Scott Styris 71 before both retired.

They then reduced the Bangladesh 11 to 27 for one when stumps were pulled.
