Starc restricts Bangladesh to 182 after Tamim 95. 44.3 overs Bangladesh 182 (Tamim 95, Starc 4-29) v Australia

Australia seized the initiative in their key Champions Trophy game, bowling out Bangladesh for just 182 in 44.3 overs. Tamim Iqbal's 95 was the only solace for Bangladesh with the opener falling just short of scoring back-to-back hundreds for the second time in two years. But there was virtually no support from the rest of the batting line-up as only Shakib Al Hasan and Mehedi Hasan reached double figures. It had started to rain, though, towards the end of the Bangladesh innings and when the players walked off for the innings break.

Coming into the XI for John Hastings, Adam Zampa was introduced as late as the 35th over and struck with his second ball. He removed Sabbir Rahman and Mahmudullah in consecutive overs. Mehedi Hasan, included in place of Mosaddek Hossain as a much-needed specialist bowler, gave Tamim a bit of support before the latter got out in Starc's third spell. Tamim struck six fours and three sixes in his 114-ball effort.

It was a Starc show from there with his triple-wicket maiden before he bowled Mehedi for 14 in the 45th over, his fourth wicket in nine balls for a solitary run to finish with 8.3-2-29-4.
