Bangladesh have achieved a historic first-ever win on Australian soil by defeating the reigning top-ranked side in a thrilling nine-wicket victory in the first Test at Darwin's Marrara Oval. The remarkable feat was driven by the outstanding all-round performance of Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who contributed a crucial half-century and took five wickets to restrict Australia to a modest target of 284.
Cameron Green, while delivering a composed century of 104, was unable to prevent Australia's historic defeat. Despite a brief scare when Josh Hazlewood dismissed Tanzid Hasan for a duck, Bangladesh's resilience was evident as Shadman Islam and Mominul Haque's unbeaten scores of 25 and 30 respectively secured their triumph in just 14.2 overs.
The victory brought immense joy to the Bangladesh supporters gathered behind the team's dugout and highlighted the need for Australia to address their performance issues before the remaining fixtures of their demanding 12-month Test schedule.
