Highlight
Australia was defeated by 10 wickets by Bangladesh in the third T20I.
With an insurmountable 3-0 lead in the five-match series, they took it.
This was Bangladesh’s first win over Australia in any capacity.
In the third T20I in Dhaka, Bangladesh defeated Australia by 10 runs to claim their first-ever series victory over their opponents in any format.
Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah orchestrated a stunning 10-run victory in the third T20I against Australia Friday, coaching his team to their first series win over the Aussies. Their best moment in cricket came on the biggest night, but they began to tear up in shock after taking an unassailable 3-0 lead in the five-match series in Dhaka. In Bangladesh’s T20 history, they had previously never even defeated Australia. The series triumph marked their first against an esteemed opponent in any format.
“I am really excited about this. At a moment of great importance, the boys stepped up “The skipper, whose 52 was the basis of Bangladesh’s 127 for nine overs, stated, “52 was the root of all we built.”
Despite Mitchell Marsh and Ben McDermott threatening to see Australia to victory in the stadium that was empty for the second time in the match, Bangladesh’s bowlers once again limited Australia’s runs in the last overs.
Mustafizur Rahman, a left-arm fast bowler, conceded just nine runs from his four overs.
It was a humbling loss for Australia, as they made just 117 for four, losing by 10 runs.
No matter what new bowler Nathan Ellis accomplished in his first career game, the team was still missing their goal.
Wade said that the game and the rest of the series in the West Indies were “disappointing.”
When Steve Smith, David Warner, and Pat Cummins are all out of the picture, there are still a few doubts in the Australian camp.
There are a couple of mistakes we’d like to set straight, Wade said.
Despite the start being delayed by over an hour due to rain, Mahmudullah elected to bat first.
But he was also the first pitcher to fall victim to Ellis, who came in to rest the mighty Mitchell Starc and made his imprint by conceding just three runs in the final three balls.
Mustafizur was out in front and Marsh and Mahedi Hasan were both trapped in the deep square.
As a result, Marsh and McDermott went on to score 63 for the third wicket, but it was once again followed by a wicket on the deteriorating Dhaka wicket. Due to the victories in the first two games in which Bangladesh won by 35 runs and five wickets, finding runs became almost tough.
As the hosts of the 2014 ICC World Twenty20, the Bangladesh cricketers celebrated by dancing across the pitch.
Tonight’s triumph was particularly noteworthy because they had never previously defended a total that low to win a T20 international.
Mahmudullah commented following the team’s recent series success in Zimbabwe that they had met to discuss things seriously.
“Even though the rankings don’t show it, we believe we are a great squad,” he remarked. The ICC now ranks Bangladesh 10th in the world.
He noted that the nation’s prospects at the World Cup, which will be hosted in the United Arab Emirates in October-November, depend on playing with a huge heart and a balanced mentality.
