Australia Beat Bangladesh By 180 Runs In 1st ODI

Darwin: An understrength Australia crushed Bangladesh by 180 runs in their first One Day International at the TIO stadium here on Saturday. The home side, rocked on the eve of the game by star all rounder Andrew Symonds being banished from the squad for a disciplinary breach, made 254 for 8 from 50 overs after being sent in to bat.

The match is the first of three in what was to be warm-up for the Champions Trophy in Pakistan before that tournament was postponed due to security concerns. In reply, Bangladesh mustered just 74 and were all out in the 28th over.

Brief Score: Australia 8 for 254 (M Hussey 85, Marsh 76, Shahadat Hossain 3-42) beat Bangladesh 74 (White 3-5) by 180 runs
