Bangladesh make history

The result marked Bangladesh’s first Test win on Australian soil. It also added to Australia’s recent history of unexpected home defeats.

Australia last suffered a major upset at home in 2024. The West Indies defeated them by eight runs at the Gabba after fast bowler Shamar Joseph produced a memorable spell.

Bangladesh’s victory in Darwin now stands among the most significant Test results in the country’s cricket history.
