- Only Shahriar Nafees had previously scored a Test century against Australia for Bangladesh, making Tanzid's achievement historic in just his second Test appearance.
- His performance follows prolific white-ball form across 40 ODI and 53 T20I appearances, marking his first significant score outside Asia in over four years.
