“We needed to win this game to stay in the series and I thought we played fantastically well,” Taylor said. “Bangladesh put us under pressure at various times and that was probably a fair reflection of where the series was at.It was significant that the final catch was taken by Latham as the New Zealand captain had an outsized influence on this match.
In doing so, Latham became the first player in Test history to score 250 and take six catches in the same match. “We came here 1-0 down after losing the first test and putting a performance like this on the board was very pleasing,” Latham said. “We talked about it in the days before the match that we had to improve on a number of areas and I thought we did that well.
"I guess getting put in on day one on a wicket we know does a little bit on day one, to get through that first session, to build partnerships throughout the innings was ideal. I guess we know first innings scores here are very important.”
