Tanzid Hasan Scores Historic Century Against Australia

Opener Tanzid Hasan became the first Bangladeshi cricketer to score a Test century on Australian soil, finishing his innings with 101 runs in only his second Test match.

The 25-year-old batter reached his maiden Test fifty off 102 balls and survived a dropped catch by Steve Smith off Nathan Lyon while batting on 61.

Chief selector Habibul Bashar drafted Tanzid into the squad to provide an aggressive counterattacking option, a decision validated by his performance against the Australian pace attack.
