Commentary

2:26 PM IST A series to remember - A memorable day and a historic series for Bangladesh, who seal their maiden ODI series victory over Australia. Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mehidy Hasan Miraz lift the trophy together before joining their teammates for the celebrations and the customary winners' photographs. The focus now shifts to the T20Is, with the three-match series beginning at Chattogram on Wednesday, 17th June at 9.00 am GMT. If the ODIs are anything to go by, plenty more entertainment awaits. Join us then for all the build-up and action. Until next time, goodbye!
2:23 PM IST The victorious skipper of Bangladesh - Reflecting on the series win despite the defeat, Najmul Hossain Shanto says he is extremely proud of the team and the way they have played throughout the series. He is particularly pleased with the fight shown in the final match, highlighting the strong comeback in the closing overs and the belief within the group that they were never out of a contest. On Bangladesh's total of 274, he feels it is a very good score, praising the contributions of Towhid Hridoy and Mosaddek Hossain. However, he believes the lack of wickets from the spinners in the middle overs proved costly, while acknowledging that such things can happen in cricket. Speaking about Shoriful Islam, he is delighted with the fast bowler's performance across all phases of the innings. He notes that returning after missing the first two matches is never easy, making Shoriful's six-wicket haul even more impressive, and hopes he can maintain those standards going forward. On the competition within the bowling group, he says the side benefits from having quality options both in the XI and on the bench. He credits the bowlers' hard work over the past few years for creating a healthy competitive environment, which he believes has played a major role in the team's success, while adding that there is still room for improvement.
2:21 PM IST Most valuable Bangladesh player of the series - Towhid Hridoy wins the award for scoring 154 runs across 3 games with an average of 77. On his batting approach, he says his aim is to contribute to the team and execute his plans whenever he is at the crease. He describes the surface as a sporting wicket and hopes Bangladesh get to play on similar tracks more often. He believes that if the team wants to compete and succeed at a higher level, they need to regularly play on wickets that offer a fair contest between bat and ball. He adds that the side is improving steadily and hopes they continue to get better day by day.
2:31 PM IST PLAYER OF THE SERIES - Mosaddek Hossain wins the award for his all-round effort in the series. 157 runs and a couple of wickets in 3 games.  Reflecting on his comeback performance, he thanks God for the opportunity and says he had been waiting patiently for his chance. After spending a long time out of the side, he is delighted to return and make a meaningful contribution to the team, describing it as a privilege. On Bangladesh's total of 274, he feels the side finished around 15-20 runs short of an ideal score. At the same time, he credits Australia's batting unit for chasing well and putting the bowlers under pressure. Speaking about contributing with the bat, ball and in the field, he admits it is never easy to return after a lengthy absence. He is pleased to make an impact in all three departments and help the team in his comeback game.
2:10 PM IST The captain of Australia - Josh Inglis says that he is pleased and it was quite nervy towards the end but he is happy to get over the line. He adds that they did well in the Powerplay. Inglis reckons that Cooper Connolly was brilliant and he played a knock of his life. He further says that we saw how much Connolly was cramping, and it was a top knock from him. He ends by saying that he is a great striker, and the way we saw him today, he is definitely very good at the top.
2:11 PM IST PLAYER OF THE MATCH - No prizes for guessing, as it is Cooper Connolly who wins the award for his outstanding knock of 149 off 134. He says that it feels quite good to get over the line. He adds that it is satisfying to play such a knock and it is nice to get an opportunity at the top. Connolly reckons that he likes to show aggression and that is his natural game towards the start. He says that he has confidence in this team and ends by saying that he always believed that the chase was on.
2:29 PM IST Presentation Time...
2:28 PM IST The Tigers fight till the very end - Bangladesh can take plenty of positives from their bowling effort, led by a sensational performance from Shoriful Islam. He struck twice in his opening over to set the tone and returned at the death to spark a dramatic collapse, finishing with career-best figures of 6/38. Taskin Ahmed chipped in during the middle overs, while Mahedi Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman also grabbed a wicket each. However, despite their persistence and late surge, Bangladesh struggled to break Australia's key partnerships and had few answers to the magnificent Cooper Connolly, whose masterclass ultimately proved the difference.
2:28 PM IST Good battle between bat and ball - Earlier in the game, Bangladesh posted a big total thanks to half-centuries from Litton Das and Mosaddek Hossain, but it was Towhid Hridoy who played the standout hand with a superb 83. He controlled the innings beautifully and laid the foundation for a big finish, though Bangladesh may feel they left 10-15 runs out there after failing to fully capitalize at the death. For Australia, Ben Dwarshuis, Matt Renshaw and Xavier Bartlett chipped in with wickets, while their disciplined work in the final ten overs helped pull things back and keep the target within reach.
2:39 PM IST Connolly stands tall amid the chaos - Australia finally broke their four-match opening partnership drought, but two quick wickets soon left them under pressure at 40/2. Cooper Connolly, however, remained unfazed, and along with Alex Carey scored at a brisk rate in the first Powerplay. The opener anchored the chase brilliantly, compiling a magnificent 149 while adding three crucial partnerships worth 64, 68 and 64 with Marnus Labuschagne, Cameron Green, and Oliver Peake, with Peake showing excellent maturity. Connolly brought up a superb century and appeared to have the game firmly under control, smashing three sixes in a row against Taskin Ahmed in the 45th over to bring the required runs in single digits, before a dramatic late collapse gave Bangladesh renewed hope. Connolly eventually fell amid the chaos, but Adam Zampa held his nerve in the final over to ensure the opener's outstanding effort ended in a hard-fought Australian victory.
2:26 PM IST A late twist that almost was - At 266/5, with just nine runs needed, Australia looked set to get over the line in a canter. But Peake's dismissal sparked an astonishing collapse, with Shoriful Islam breathing life into the contest through a superb spell that yielded three wickets. Mustafizur Rahman then removed the crucial Cooper Connolly as the visitors tumbled to 271/9, bringing Bangladesh within touching distance of a remarkable comeback. However, dropped chances from Mustafizur and Tanzid Hasan proved costly, and Australia ultimately survived a dramatic finish to sneak over the line.
1:47 PM IST Australia survive a Shoriful-inspired scare - A thriller for the ages in Dhaka! Australia looked to be cruising towards victory before Shoriful Islam produced a stunning spell out of nowhere, turning the game on its head and giving Bangladesh genuine belief of pulling off a remarkable comeback. For a while, it seemed the hosts were on the brink of another famous win, but Adam Zampa held his nerve when it mattered most to scrape home. The victory not only salvages some pride for the visitors but also denies Bangladesh the chance to become just the fourth team, after England, South Africa and New Zealand, to whitewash Australia in an ODI series.

No, it is Taskin Ahmed. 3 needed in 6 balls, with Australia having just one wicket left. Bangladesh have also been handed a penalty for slow over rate and will have to keep one extra fielder inside the circle.

A misfield and they get back for the second, probably a bit unnecessary at this stage and Cooper Connolly is down on the ground once again. A tad fuller around off, this one turns away as well. Green rocks back and taps it to extra cover, where the fielder gets an awkward bounce and fumbles it behind. The man at sweeper cover runs in as the batters race back for the second run. Connolly takes a big tumble as he stretches his bat home at the bowler's end. Hopefully, he is fine.
