WELLINGTON, , (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 16th Jan, 2017 ) - New Zealand pulled off a remarkable seven-wicket win in the first Test against Bangladesh in Wellington on Monday. Captain Kane Williamson scored an unbeaten 104 and Ross Taylor 60 as they easily cut down their 217-run target in the final session of play.
Bangladesh finished their second innings on 160 for nine with captain Mushfiqur Rahim retired hurt.
