Bangladesh Achieves First ODI Series Win Over Australia After Historic Collapse
Bangladesh secured their first-ever ODI series victory over Australia with a five-wicket win (DLS method) in the second match at Dhaka's Shere Bangla National Stadium. Australia’s innings began disastrously, losing their first three wickets without scoring, a historic low in their ODI history. Bangladesh’s pace bowlers, including Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman, dismantled the Australian top order. Despite a brief recovery, Australia fell short, while Bangladesh’s batting, led by Soumya Sarkar and Najmul Hossain Shanto, successfully chased the target in a rain-affected game.
