Bangladesh captured a landmark first ODI series victory against Australia after Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman dismantled the hosts’ top order in a rain‑affected match. The hosts, missing captain Mitchell Marsh, fell 86 runs short under DLS, giving Bangladesh a 2‑0 series lead.

The rain‑marred game saw Bangladesh bowl first, with Ahmed and Rahman claiming Matthew Short, Cooper Connolly and Matthew Renshaw for zero. Australia’s innings stalled at 187‑8, with Labuschagne unbeaten 55 and Xavier Bartlett dismissed by Ahmed.

Bangladesh’s chase, revised to 192 from 41 overs, was completed after a 21‑run knock from Litton Dias. Despite losing opener Tanzid Hasan, Bangladesh’s bowlers held the line as Australia’s wickets fell.

This victory marks only the fourth time a side has dismissed all three top‑order batsmen for no runs, cementing Bangladesh’s place as a rising force in ODI cricket.
