Reckon O'Brien deserves his own day in the sun TBH. Good long service to NZ cricket.

O'Brien let down by McCullum!
Is there nothing that this boy can't do?

O'Brien - proving me and others wrong. Good to see

Incredible stuff
Bangladesh should be 0/3 but both Saleh and Iqbal have survived, being dropped from relatively easy chances

You serious?
Not saying anything about ability, but O'Brien is quicker than Southee for sure
On that note, anyone else annoyed by the speed-ball radars on this tour? Consistently about 10kph too low.

Yeah just ignored them the whole time TBH.

Man, wish I had coverage. It seems O'Brien and Mills are choking them out there.

Not to mention Mills being our best seamer for quite a while now.

I'm a little worried Bangladesh might end the day 4/160 off 90 overs or something. We've missed our early chances and they've completely shut up shop. Of course, the odds of Bangladesh knuckling down like that are pretty low.

Mills=gun. But I don't think "quite a while" is really fair, Shane Bond wasn't that long ago.

IMO, Bangla's two best batsmen are at the crease (Saleh is gun) and these two are the most likely to build a big partnership. I have absolutely no confidence in Ashraful, as talented as he may be. He's just as likely to get a golden as he to pass 30.
If these two both get out, I don't see Bangladesh still batting at stumps. Vettori just smashes these guys for wickets when he plays them, regardless of how he went in the ODI series.

Good point about Dan the minnow bashing Man.

I thought the same thing when I heard about the two dropped catches - got home too late so actually missed the drama of the first few overs. Hopefully they won't be too costly.

RSA in late 2007 if I remember correctly? Fair point. Mind you Mills was out of that series due to an injury, but he's been the best since Bond last played.
Oddly enough Bond is still in the top ten test bowlers.
