Bangladesh vs Australia, Live Score, 1st Test Day 4; Bangladesh have Australia’s mark on the fourth day of the opening Test. (Source: AP)
Riding on Nathan Lyon’s 10th five-wicket haul, Australia bundled out Bangladesh for 221. With Tamim Iqbal’s 78 and a late surge by Mehedi Hasan, Bangladesh set Australia a target of 265. In reply, Australia lost Matt Renshaw and Usman Khawaja early. But it was the 81-run partnership between David Warner and skipper Steve Smith that gave the visitors an edge over Bangladesh. Warner, who has not managed to get runs under his belt in the sub-continent, scored his 25th Test half-century and was unbeaten at 75 at stumps. With two days remainings, Australia need 156 runs to win the first Test of the two-match Test series.
Bangladesh vs Australia, 1st Test Day 4 Live Score: David Warner and Steve Smith had Australia coasting along until first Warner fell and then Smith. Since then, it has been all Bangladesh or all Shakib Al Hasan. He has two fifers in each inning and up to ten wicket haul. Can he take Bangladesh to an improbable win as Australia chase 265 runs?
