46th over - Southee replaces Santner.
Sabbair splits the gap for four to reach 99 and then grabs a single for his maiden ODI century. Well deserved.
Great celebration too - he kisses the crowd and then holds up his bat, as if to say 'my bat does the talking'. He's just returned from a suspension for disciplinary problems, so maybe that's his point.
OUT! Mehidy hits high towards the boundary, but Guptill runs back and takes a diving catch over his shoulder - a great catch!

Mehidy glances Ferguson fine down leg-side for four. Eight off the over and Bangladesh need 105 off 30 balls.

His next shot evades Taylor at slip and also rolls to the rope. Taylor shakes his taped finger and Mushfiqur gets physio attention - that shot came off his hand.
Mushfiqur edges another to the fence - this has turned into an expensive over for Boult.
Fifth over - Southee into his third over.
He hits Mahmudullah on the pad with his second ball, the appeal is denied, but the Blackcaps call for a review.

Wow, that's rash so early in the chase.

Soumya is the new batsman and he has shown some ability on this tour.
OUT! Wow, that's the commentator's curse. Southee gets a ball to nip back between bat and pad, taking out Soumya's stumps.

An eventful opening over for Southee, two wickets and just one run, which was a wide.

Latham hits into the off-side and scampers for two on the overthrow.

*****
10:52am - New Zealand are paying just $1.13 at the TAB to win this contest, with Bangladesh at $6.40.
Unsurprsingly, Martin Guptill is favourted to lead the scoring at $3, with Henry Nicholls and Ross Taylor at $4.33, and Munro at $5.50 - the highest he's been all summer.
10:32am - Bangladesh have won the toss and will send the Blackcaps into bat first. This will be a good chance for them to put some early runs on the board, rather than leisurely chase a small total.
Mithun, who has been Bangladesh's best batsman in this series, hurt himself in the last game and will not play today - that will hurt. He's replaced by bowler (and tail-end batsman) Rubel Hossein, which won't help their batting depth.
New Zealand have made three changes, with Colin Munro replacing captain Kane Williamson, Mitch Santner coming in for Todd Astle and Tim Southey for Matt Henry.
Acting captain Tom Latham admits he would have batted first, if he had won the toss today.
*****
Kia ora, good morning and welcome to Newshub's live coverage of the third one-day international between New Zealand and Bangladesh at Dunedin's University Oval.
With two wins already under the belts, the Blackcaps have a series whitewash within their grasp and given the tourists have barely challenged them so far, that should be a mere formality.
But this is sport and, as we all know, anything can happen on any given day.
NZ skipper Kane Williamson will take a break from this contest, so the captaincy will pass to wicketkeeper Tom Latham.
- Colin Munro to open in 'dead' Dunedin ODI
- Trent Boult fined for swearing during ODI victory
- Martin Guptill finding form with World Cup approaching
Presumably, Colin Munro will come into the side and take his customary role at the top of the batting order, which means the Henry Nicholls opening experiment is over - at least for now.
Nicholls will likely slot into Williamson's spot at three, with Ross Taylor at four and Latham five.
This is the last chance for fringe players to push their case for selection in the World Cup squad and spinner Todd Astle looms as the one with most to prove, if he is given that opportunity.
So far, Bangladesh have batted first twice, without scoring enough runs to really pressure the Blackcaps. Hopefully, the home side will get a chance to set a target today, testing their batsman to pace an innings over the full 50 overs and then defend that total.
Join us at 10:30am for the toss and team line-ups.
Newshub.
