Belligerent Taylor seals series for New Zealand

Having been kept to 183 by New Zealand's tidy bowling attack, Bangladesh were drubbed by the broad bat of Ross Taylor as they surrendered the series to the hosts at the University Oval in Dunedin. Another cheap Brendon McCullum dismissal and Martin Guptill's wicket inside the first ten overs would have given Bangladesh some hope, but Taylor's belligerent innings confirmed what most had expected from this Dunedin match. Swatting five sixes in his 52-ball 78, Taylor pushed Bangladesh into a corner and helped seal the game in the 28th over, according to website cricinfo.
New Zealand 185 for 5 (Taylor 78) beat Bangladesh 183 for 8 (Mushfiqur 86, Butler 3-43, McKay 2-17) by five wickets.
