Australia vs Bangladesh

Bangladesh produced arguably the biggest One-Day International shock in history on Saturday as they beat World champions Australia by five wickets in their triangular series match.

The world champions, opting to bat on a Sophia Gardens track offering early seam movement, lost two early wickets and struggled all the way through to 249 for 5 from their 50 overs.
