Bangladesh secures historic first Test win in Australia

Bangladesh secured a historic nine-wicket victory over Australia in the first Test of their two-match series at Marrara Oval in Darwin. This marks Bangladesh’s first-ever Test win on Australian soil and only their second Test victory against Australia in their 26-year history.

After Australia was bowled out for 198 in their first innings, Bangladesh responded with a massive 426, led by Tanzid Hasan’s maiden Test century (101) and contributions from Najmul Hossain Shanto (84) and Mehidy Hasan Miraz (65). This established a 228-run first-innings lead.

In Australia’s second innings, Cameron Green provided resistance with a century (104), but the team was dismissed for 284, largely due to the bowling of Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who took five wickets, and Hasan Mahmud, who finished the match with nine total wickets. Bangladesh successfully chased the target of 57 runs, losing only one wicket to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
