Bangladesh fail again
Darwin (Australia), Sept. 6: Bangladesh’s batsmen again failed as they fell to another demoralising defeat in their one-day series against Australia at the TIO Stadium here on Saturday.
After the tourists fielded well to restrict Australia to 198/5 from their 50 overs, they were unable to capitalise on a fine half-century from opener Tamim Iqbal and were dismissed for just 125 in 29.5 overs in reply.
The 73-run win meant Australia completed a clean sweep in the three-match series, in which the Bangladesh’s batting was well below the standard required of an international side.
In the first match they were dismissed for just 74 and lost by 180 runs, then they were bowled out for 117 in the second match on their way to an eight-wicket defeat. — AFP
