Bangladesh humble Australia on day one of Darwin test

Bangladesh humble Australia on day one of Darwin test

Bangladesh made an impressive start to their test series in Australia, dismissing the world's top-ranked cricket team for just 198 on the first day of the match in Darwin. Hasin Mahmud led the Bangladesh bowling attack with a remarkable 6-55, claiming the crucial wickets of Steve Smith and Tanzid Hasan. The Australian team struggled to score, with the top order failing to capitalize on their early opportunities.

Despite a poor showing from some of their batters, the Bangladesh pace bowlers dominated the pitch, which flattened out in the afternoon.
