June 21, 2024 06:37

B'desh 47-1 (7 ovs) vs Australia | Scorecard

First bowling change for Australia as Pat Cummins is called into the attack to replace Hazlewood, who bowled two overs for nine runs.

He starts with a wide down the leg side to left-hander Shanto, when then flicks the pacer over midwicket for a four.

Cummins bowls a quick bouncer which flies high over the batter and also beats the wicketkeeper for five wides.

Singles off the next two balls before Shanto is beaten last ball trying to drive as Cummins concedes 12 in his first over.

Bangladesh have recovered after an early wicket but haven't been able to make most of the Powerplay to reach 39/1 in six overs.

Shanto has made 18 from 14 balls, while Litton has struggled on 13 from 19 balls.

Leg-spinner Adam Zampa comes into the attack. Litton nudges the first ball off his pads for a single and Shanto swats the next over midwicket for a four.

Three singles from the rest of the over as Zampa gives away eight in his first over.
