An absolute heart-stopper in Mirpur to close out an epic series 😱🏏 Trailing 2-0, Australia narrowly avoided a series whitewash by snatching a nerve-wracking 1-wicket victory over Bangladesh with just three balls to spare.
Chasing 275, 22-year-old Cooper Connolly played an innings for the ages, smashing a breathtaking maiden ODI century, a career-best 149 off just 117 balls, while battling severe cramps in the Dhaka heat. Bangladesh staged a furious late comeback led by a sensational, career-best 6-wicket haul (6/48) from Shoriful Islam, triggering an insane Australian collapse from 266/5 to 271/9. With 2 runs needed off the final over, Adam Zampa held his nerve to hit the winning runs. Earlier, Towhid Hridoy (83), Litton Das (58*), and Mosaddek Hossain (56*) fired the Tigers to a competitive 274/5.
