In the ongoing World Cup 2023 match between New Zealand and Bangladesh, New Zealand's decision to bowl first at the Ma Chidambaram Stadium proved fruitful. On the very first ball, Trent Boult struck, sending a Tiger's batsman back to the pavilion with a golden duck.

Despite this early setback, Bangladesh found a glimmer of hope in the form of their batsman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz. After the dismissal of Litton Das, Miraz stepped up and made his presence felt. In the 1st over, facing Matt Henry, he demonstrated his prowess with the bat.

This fantastic shot marked the first four of the match, giving Bangladesh a reason to cheer.
