    A Hagley Oval cricket conjuring trick has fooled Bangladesh

    A Hagley Oval cricket conjuring trick has fooled Bangladesh


    After winning the toss and deciding to field in the second test in Christchurch, the visitors are staring at New Zealand's 349 for one heading into the second day.

    Black Caps captain Tom Latham is 186 not out and Devon Conway is unbeaten on 99, as they attempt to square the series.

    The tourists' bowling coach Ottis Gibson believes they got duped, after dominating with the ball to win in Mount Maunganui.



    Andy Murray is the latest big name to show concern for Novak Djokovic, while declaring that the saga which has engulfed the world number one is "really bad" for tennis.

    As Djokovic spent another night at an immigration hotel, his old British rival reckoned he, like the rest of the sport, had been shocked by the whole episode.
