Bangladesh v Australia: first Test, day four – as it happened Read moreIt doesn’t take a lot of digging to find examples of similar Asian collapses from the Australian side, as recently as the first innings here, for one. Bangalore in February is another, where six wickets were lost for 12 runs to surrender their most recent fourth-innings chase. Today, the damage was a 41-6 turn at the point Bangladesh looked all-but finished with the runs they were defending disappearing fast. It was Shakib’s turn again when Wade came and went, the wicketkeeper’s disastrous match complete when missing on the inside edge in a fashion so familiar in Asia. They have four days turn it around, the second and final Test of the series starting in Chittagong on Monday.
