Bangladesh coach Dav Whatmore says his team can restore its battered reputation in the two-Test series against Australia starting next week.
"We are here to make sure that we get on the right track and play the sort of cricket that world cricket demands Bangladesh play," Whatmore told reporters on Wednesday.
"It's no secret that performances with the team haven't been as good as what anybody would like.
"We see this series, as hard as it's going to be against a team ranked number one as the commencement of something really wonderful for our cricket, the sub-continent area and world cricket as well."
Bangladesh have lost 18 and drawn one of their 19 matches since gaining Test status in 2000 and are bottom of the International Cricket Council's 10-nation Test championship.
Their third and final warm-up game is a four-day match against a Northern Territory Chief Minister's XI starting in Darwin on Thursday. The first Test starts in Darwin on July 18.
Uncapped New South Wales batsman Michael Clarke, who has played five one-day internationals, will captain the Northern Territory XI against Bangladesh.
"At 22 years of age just to be a part of the Australian cricket squad for me is a great achievement," Clarke said.
"I'm not looking too far ahead. If something else comes of it I'll be obviously very happy to represent my country again."
