Black Caps can't blame conditions says Mills

Stand-in New Zealand cricket captain Kyle Mills says the Black Caps can't blame the difficult sub continental conditions for yet another one day series whitewash at the hands of Bangladesh.

A Ross Taylor century lead New Zealand to a total 307 for five in the third match at Fatullah, which the hosts chased down with four wickets and four balls to spare.

Mills says while the Black Caps struggle on the spinner friendly surfaces they don't always lose in Asia.

He says New Zealand made the semi-finals of the one day World Cup in 2011 which was hosted by India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

The two teams next meet in Wednesday in a one-off Twenty20 match at Dhaka.
