Bowled, Lyono.

Looks a good day for the Aussies in the end. Presume they can get a useful first innings lead on a pitch that'll get harder to bat on.

Superb from Cummins, blowing away the top order in a spell.

Its great for Aus that Cummins is back, may he stay back for a while yet.

As GJ says, the fact most wickets have gone to spinners, probably means a lot of troble for Australia. Fragile line up in these conditions. If Smith does not get runs, you worry where will the runs come from.

Bangladesh 260 all out looking like a decent score.

From the little i have watched, i think its going to be competitive.

BD might fancy getting a couple of early wickets tonight as well. Australian will need to bat well.

If he doesn't make a score, but its one of the strengths of Australia's position that they have one of the GOATs in their side.

Warners away record ourside of South Africa really needs to be improved on if he wants to be considered a great player. Perhaps a good series in BD is a cahnce for him to start building on that...

Can't see aus winning though, the pitch looks a minefield and ban batting good and decent.

I agree, Bd at home have to be favourites.

Aus batting last, they will need a 100 run lead going in the 3rd innings. And thats a very long way off at present.
