Kiwis poised to wrap up Bangladesh series

WELLINGTON: New Zealand had a firm grip on the second Test against Bangladesh on the second day here Sunday with the tourists needing 199 more runs with five wickets remaining to avoid an innings defeat. International whipping boys Bangladesh, already down 1-0 in the two-Test series, had collapsed to 51 for five at stumps after starting their second innings 250 runs in arrears. To add to their woes, Bangladesh opener Tamim Iqbal broke his thumb when he dropped a chance from Mathew Sinclair and there were doubts whether he would bat.
