If we had not carried oldies we would haven won 3rd series in a row there.

I think Bangladeshs got this: however will be fun to see another heartbreak hehehehe

[Lone Wolf]

The one that goes straight... Beautiful off spin bowling

175 lead will be tricky for Toygers. However too much.

If they get 175 lead means pitch is dead as a dodo...  At best a sub 100 run chase.

BD will win by losing 2/3 wickets.

This is repeat of our MCG test vs Australia in 2020 after 36 all out. 

 

Target will be around 60 and Bangladesh to win by 8 wickets

Starc reviews a straightforward caught behind...  this defeat will hurt them bad

Just saw bit of live action and i did not see pitch play any tricks. Aussie were outplayed. Its 50 runs lead now with only 1 wicket remaining. Best case lead will be 65, BD will win by 8 or 9 wickets.

So even though not a victory by an innings, this is nothing less than that, what a performance by bangladesh team, played like matured and experienced team in these condition in every department. Can they whitewash australia at home?

These commentators man, the ball clearly in line with the stumps but says it would be hilarious if it hit outside off

[Nikola]

Mehidy is star for bangladesh, probably best all rounder going around in test cricket currently, doesn't get exposure to different conditions but he proved how good he is in this test match.

[Lone Wolf]

This Mehidy is too good a player for a side like Bangladesh.

 

History awaits Kanglus 

[MechEng]

I would have been very happy if this was Sri Lanka or Afghanistan, or heck even Nepal.

 

But Bangladesh? This is a new low. 

 

Shame on you Australia for allowing such an ungrateful nation winning at your turf.

It's rare for an off spinner to be effective in ODIs and Tests both in this era and this guy is a genuine all rounder as well.

 

Side spin, over spin this guy has it covered.  Lyon humbled and how

[MechEng]

Cummins decline as a bowler is a bit surprising.

 

In covid times he uploaded Instagram videos where he was doing barbell squats and deadlifts. Now he's only been doing cardio. Lack of strength training must have affected his bowling speeds, what say @rkt.india@express bowling @Rightarmfast @Suhaan?
