Sodhi’s bowling performance etched his name into the annals of cricket history, as he shattered the previous record for the best bowling figures by a spinner against Bangladesh in ODIs. He accomplished this feat by scoring six wickets while conceding just 39 runs in his allotted 10 overs. The previous record, held by former New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori, stood at an impressive five wickets for a mere seven runs, a mark that had endured since the encounter in Queenstown back in 2007. With this achievement, Sodhi joined an elite group of bowlers as the ninth player to claim a six-wicket haul against Bangladesh, solidifying his status as a bowling maestro in the international cricket arena.

Earlier in the match, Lockie Ferguson, the New Zealand captain, won the toss and made the decision to set a target by batting first. Mustafizur Rahman, with his early breakthroughs, posed a challenge for the Kiwi side by dismissing both openers within the initial stages of the innings. Khaled Ahmed’s dismissal of Chad Bowes further compounded the visitors’ woes during the challenging first powerplay overs. However, the Kiwis found respite through the resilient efforts of Henry Nicholls, who crafted a valuable 49-run innings, and Tom Blundell, who exhibited composure with a well-constructed 68 from 66 balls. Despite this middle-order resurgence, wickets tumbled at crucial junctures, and it was Ish Sodhi’s gritty 35-run contribution towards the end of the innings that bolstered their total to 254 runs.

Notably, the target set by New Zealand could have been considerably lower had it not been for a sportsmanlike gesture from Litton Das. In an incident where Hasan Mahmud ran Sodhi out for wandering too far from the non-striker’s end, Litton Das displayed an act of goodwill by calling Sodhi back to the crease, exemplifying the spirit of fair play that cricket holds dear. This incident added a touch of sportsmanship to an otherwise fiercely competitive contest, demonstrating the gentlemanly ethos that pervades the sport.
