No cricketer’s career could have ended in a better way than this. Ross Taylor has been known for his batting. He got out early in the first innings and did not bat in the second innings. In such a situation, he showed amazing with the ball and took the last wicket of Bangladesh. Gave victory to New Zealand and made their farewell match memorable.
New Zealand’s greatest pacer Richard Hadlee took the wicket of the last ball of the last match of his career. Headley dismissed D Malcolm on the last ball of the last Test match against England in 1990. Now after 32 years, Ross Taylor did the same amazing thing as Headley in the last match of his career.
Ibadat Hussain’s wicket
On the third day of the Test match, when Bangladesh’s nine wickets had fallen, the ball came in the hands of Ross Taylor. Ibadat Hussain played a shot in the air. The ball went straight into the hands of New Zealand captain Tom Latham. This is only the third wicket of his career. Taylor, who made his international debut with the Napier ODI against West Indies in 2006, had announced before the series began that it would be the last series of his career.
Received guard of honor on the field
Earlier, when he came out to bat for the last time in this match, even then every spectator present on the field gave him a salute. He had left his seat and stood. The whole ground reverberated with thunderous applause. The Bangladeshi players came together and gave a guard of honor to Taylor. Taylor was dismissed after scoring 28 runs. Even then, even while going towards the pavilion, the audience stood up and greeted him.
New Zealand took revenge for the defeat
Bangladesh had achieved a historic victory over New Zealand in the first match of the two-Test series. No one thought that the World Test champion team would lose to Bangladesh. After this crushing defeat, now in the second Test, the Kiwis hit such a paw that Bangladesh Tigers lost the match by an innings and 117 runs in just three days. The series was tied at 1-1.
