(Corrects Dhaka to Mirpur in first paragraph)
June 9 : Bangladesh stunned Australia with an 86-run win via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method in their opening one-day international in Mirpur on Tuesday, taking a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.
Chasing 285, Australia slumped to 191-9 when rain halted play, with only four batters making it into double figures. Cameron Green top-scored with an unbeaten 52, but he found little support as wickets fell at the other end at regular intervals.
Fast bowler Nahid Rana led Bangladesh’s attack with four wickets from his 10 overs.
