Bangladesh were potentially handed a double blow on Friday as the Tigers saw skipper Shakib Al Hasan walk off the field with an injury in their heavy eight-wicket defeat against New Zealand at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai yesterday.

Shakib strained his left quad while batting and could not field till the end of the game. He was taken for a scan.

"Shakib has gone for a scan. So, we will know more [about it] after that," said Bangladesh batter Najmul Hossain Shanto on Shakib's injury during the post-match presentation ceremony.

Meanwhile, New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson marked his return to the World Cup with an undefeated 78 but the Kiwi captain also saw his involvement in the game cut short due to an injury.

Chasing 246 to win, Williamson, playing his first ODI since January after being sidelined due to a knee injury, had reached his 43rd fifty in the format off 81 balls.

He moved on to 78 with eight fours and a six when he had to call it quits after a throw from the deep rapped him painfully on the glove.

But New Zealand comfortably wrapped up their third win with 43 balls to spare.

Williamson had put on a second-wicket stand of 80 with opener Devon Conway (45) and then 108 with Daryl Mitchell who scored an unbeaten 89.

Earlier, Mushfiqur Rahim top-scored for the Tigers with a 75-ball 66 to lead Bangladesh to 245-9 while veteran Black Caps fast bowler Trent Boult claimed a 200th one-day international wicket.
