Another day, another horrific batting display from Bangladesh. The Tigers were bowled out for just 73 in their final match of the World Cup against Australia as leg-spinner Adam Zampa picked up five wickets.
In reply, Australia reached the target in just 6.2 overs with eight wickets to spare.
No batsman from Bangladesh managed to score more than 20 as skipper Mahmudullah Riyad top-scored with 19. Only two other batsmen- Mohammad Naim and Shamim Hossain managed to reach double figures.
Zampa picked up five wickets for 19 wickets, which is his with Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazelwood picking up two wickets each.
Putting into bat first, Bangladesh lost Liton Das straight away as the batsman was gone for a golden duck when he chopped on a full delivery from Mitchell Starc on to his stumps.
Soumya Sarkar and Mushfiqur Rahim then went in consecutive overs to Josh Hazelwood and Glen Maxwell respectively, with Soumya being bowled off an inside edge and Mushfiq being trapped LBW.
Mohammad Naim did not last long either as he returned in the fifth over of the powerplay, trying to pull Hazelwood and only managing to find Pat Cummins in short square leg.
Afif Hossain went back for his second duck in a row as he gave an easy catch to Aussie skipper Aaron Finch at slip off Adam Zampa.
Mahmudullah and Shamim then put together a brief 29-run stand, but after Zampa got rid of Shamim, Bangladesh folded within 25 deliveries for just 73.
