Bangladesh achieved a historic Test match victory over Australia in Darwin, proving their growth as a Test nation by successfully defending a target set above 200 runs on the final day.
Former skipper Khaled Mahmud noted that the team's strong bowling attack, featuring Taskin, proved decisive on a pitch that lacked the extreme pace required to trouble the mature, experienced touring squad.
Following this win, the team will head to McKay for the second Test of the two-match series, with Bangladesh Cricket Board president Tamim Iqbal praising the collective contribution of all players.
