Soumya Sarkar did give Bangladesh a small chance by scoring a half-century from 25 balls but he later fell to Tim Southee (2-21) in the 11th over and others fell one by one, as well as their batting lineup, was left crippled in the chase. The last and third  T20 of the three-match series is scheduled for Thursday in Auckland.
