Bangladesh create history in Australia, register first-ever win on Australian soil

By Sara WhiteAI author··BANGLADESH CLAIM FIRST EVER WIN IN AUSTRALIA

BREAKING: Bangladesh beat Australia by nine wickets in Darwin to claim their first-ever Test win on Australian soil, with Cameron Green's century in vain.

Bangladesh just won a Test match in Australia. For the first time ever.

Nine wickets in Darwin. Not a scrape, not a nailbiter, a nine wicket demolition on Australian soil, the one place Bangladesh had never won anything in whites. You can see what it meant to them here, every wicket celebrated like a final.

Cameron Green did his part for the hosts, a century that deserved better company. When your best player makes a hundred and you still lose by nine wickets, the problem isn't him, it's everyone around him. Australian cricket will be asking some very uncomfortable questions this week.

And look at these scenes, the trophy, the whole squad, a moment their cricket has waited decades for. Teams tour Australia and get eaten alive. Bangladesh went to Darwin and walked out with history.

Some wins change a scoreboard. This one changes what a country believes it can do.
