Bangladesh Triumphs Over Australia in Rain-Affected ODI Opener | Sports-Games
Mosaddek Hossain's unbeaten 86 and Nahid Rana's four wickets led Bangladesh to their second-ever ODI win against Australia, decided by the DLS method after a thunderstorm.
- On Tuesday, Bangladesh defeated Australia by 86 runs at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka, securing a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. Mosaddek Hossain scored a career-best 86 not out while Nahid Rana claimed four wickets in the rain-hit opener.
- This victory marks Bangladesh's second ever ODI win against Australia, ending a drought since their 2005 upset in Cardiff. Australia were chasing 285 when they reached 191-9 in 42.2 overs before a fierce thunderstorm forced play to stop.
- Earlier, Mosaddek steadied Bangladesh's innings on his return to international cricket after four years, adding 75 with Towhid Hridoy. Tanzid Hasan and Najmul Hossain Shanto hit half-centuries, putting on a 96-run partnership to establish a competitive total.
- Australia's chase faltered early as Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman reduced the visitors to 2-2. Despite Cameron Green top-scoring with 52 off 66 balls, Rana's pace removed Captain Josh Inglis for 19 and Alex Carey for 47.
- Bangladesh ultimately triumphed via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method after weather intervention stopped play with Australia still needing 93 runs. Fielding lapses complicated Australia's effort, as the tourists dropped six catches, including four off Mosaddek, during Bangladesh's innings.
