Bangladesh's Victorious ODI series ever
This is the first time for Bangladesh to win the ODI series by 4-0 of five match series. Really it’s a bad time for New Zealand as they experienced a white wash lost against Bangladesh, which is considered to be under performing cricket nation. Of the 5 matches, Bangladesh won the first match by nine runs at Dhaka whereas the second match at Dhaka was abandoned due to rain. After then Bangladesh tasted the three consecutive victories. It won the third match by seven wickets, fourth match by nine runs and the fifth match by three runs. Rubel Hussain who captured four for 25 bagged the Man of the Match award and Shakib Al Hasan bagged Man of the Series award for his all round performance. As of now, Bangladesh won 61 ODIs in its history. There are some interesting facts at the end of the series like BB McCullum has an aggregate of 196 dismissals {189 catches and 07 stumpings} and against Bangladesh he has an aggregate of 30 dismissals {29 catches and 01 stumping} just one spot behind KC Sangakkara of Sri Lanka with 39 dismissals. DL Vettori became the 15th bowler to capture 275 plus wickets in one day games.

New Zealand sealed T20 series in Sri Lanka
Having been beaten soundly in the Test series, New Zealand gained confidence after a second consecutive 20-over victory over Sri Lanka . Brendon McCullum and Jesse Ryder's clinical hitting and Nathan McCullum's teasing offspin drived New Zealand to victory and handing Sri Lanka their fourth Twenty20 loss in a row. Brendon McCullum and Ryder were badly out of form during the Test campaign, but showed both courage and muscle during an 84-run opening stand in 62 deliveries. In Srilankan side, Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara were the only batsmen to reach decent scores. There were no fireworks from Tillakaratne Dilshan who was expected a lot. Sanath continued his bad form and new comer also didn’t shine losing three early wickets for 11 runs. Bond completed the dénouement with 3 for 18 who was well supported by Nathan McCullum. Jesse Ryder claimed both the Man of the Match and Man of the Series awards.
