    35.6 a loss of concentration by Marsh, the ball lands outside off and turns in, he's a little late in getting his bat behind the line and the inside edge rolls onto the stumps 161/3
    11.5 Bangladesh strike, very poor stroke by Hopes, he tries to pull a short delivery but gets very early on the stroke, the top edge is taken easily by Mehrab at short midwicket, Hopes makes his way back as soon as he skies the ball, he's crossed with himself 56/1
    18.6 Clarke gets a little cheeky with the cut and pays the price, Shakib doesn't give him enough room to work with outside off and the ball skids through quickly, he tries to dab it down to third man, takes the outside edge and there was no doubt in the umpire's (Saheba) mind that he edged it 76/2
    49.6 three wickets in four balls for Shahadat! short of a length, Hussey advances down the pitch and tries to scoop it over cover but fails to connect and that hits his off stump 254/8
    42.3 fired in towards leg, David Hussey backs away from the stumps, tries to clear extra cover but only manages to find Mortaza, who makes up for his lapse in the Shakib's previous over 201/4
    45.3 Haddin goes and the gamble to bring on the legspinner has worked. Haddin's bowled by a quicker delivery which beats his attempted loft. That hits the middle of middle 208/5
    49.3 that the end of Cameron White. Tries to steer it to third man exposing his stumps and the ball crashes into off stump 252/6
    49.4 banged in short and Johnson's pull gets a top edge which balloons for a simple catch for the bowler 252/7

    8.1 Tamim falls, holing out to third man, that was short of a length but there wasn't enough room to cut. Tamim went for the cut anyway, but didn't get hold of it and Brett Geeves takes a fine catch at third man 28/2
    3.2 Mehrab's gone! LBW. After feeding him a series of bouncers in the previous over, Clark pitches this one up and gets it to swing in to the left-hand batsman, raps his pads and he's gone 12/1
    10.2 plumb in front and Bangladesh sink deeper, Johnson bangs it in back of a length and Ashraful eyes the deep square leg boundary, unfortunately he misjudges the lower bounce and is trapped right in front of middle, Peter Parker raises the finger, Ashraful was right in going for the pull but he played too early 33/3
    24.4 Another wicket for Geeves. Short and lifting towards Raqibul's helmet. He tries to fend it off, it takes the shoulder of the bat and flies to David Hussey at second slip 68/7
    13.6 he had it coming, Shakib steps down the track to cart Clarke over long-on but makes a mess of a low full toss, he turns the face of the bat too early and the leading edge lobs to Stuart Clark at mid-off 44/4
    19.2 a direct hit sends him packing, Raqibul lunged forward and chips it in the air towards mid-on, there are cries for a catch but the ball falls well short, the batsmen set off for a run that should never have been taken, Kapali struggles to make his ground and Clark's aim from mid-on is spot on 58/5
    22.1 First wicket in international cricket for Brett Geeves. Shortish delivery but excellent line just outside off and Dhiman Ghosh fishes at it giving Haddin a simple catch 63/6
    25.6 Bangladesh are unravelling fast here. Razzak closed the face too soon as he tried to flick him to leg and the ball pops up for a simple caught and bowled 72/8

    27.2 Another wicket for White. Tossed up on a good length outside off, Nazmul goes for the drive and gets the outside edge giving a regulation catch to Michael Clarke 74/9
    27.4 White gets three as Bangladesh slump to their lowest score ever. Shortish delivery outside off, tried to cut it, gets the bottom edge, ricochets off Haddin's thigh and Clarke dives forward from first slip to snaffle it inches from the ground and seal the win 74/10

Match Notes

  • Young, bubbly and vicious

    Bangladesh's fastest bowler is a nice young lad who likes nothing better than to knock a batsman's block off

  • White makes most of Symonds absence

    The enforced absence of Andrew Symonds has opened a door for Cameron White during the series against Bangladesh. One of the few batsmen in Australia who could match Symonds for sheer power, White's legspin will also become more important if Symonds does n

  • Geeves grateful for dad's job advice

    If it wasn't for some frank advice from his father, Brett Geeves would have been toiling away in a manual labour job in the miserable, wintry Tasmania weather on Saturday. Instead, he was working hard in draining heat for the priceless reward of two wicke

  • Johnson's speed frightened us - Siddons

    Jamie Siddons, the Bangladesh coach, believes several of his batsmen were scared of Mitchell Johnson's speed and he blamed their "silly shots" for the team's dismal effort against Australia in Darwin
