Bangladesh achieved a historic series victory against a weakened Australian team, winning the second ODI in a rain-affected match in Dhaka. Bangladesh chased down a revised target of 192 runs, with significant contributions from Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto, and Mehidy Hasan Miraz, securing the series 2-0.

Bangladesh has achieved a historic milestone by clinching a series victory against Australia with a steadfast chase during the rain-interrupted second ODI in Dhaka.

Set a revised target of 192 runs in 41 overs, courtesy of the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method, Bangladesh endured an early collapse but resilient scores from Soumya Sarkar and Najmul Hossain Shanto, both contributing 42 runs, steadied the innings.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz displayed exceptional leadership with a captain's innings, securing the team's win alongside Towhid Hridoy, as wickets tumbled at intervals. Australia, deprived of captain Mitchell Marsh, struggled initially before Marnus Labuschagne's half-century led their recovery to a challenging 187 for eight before rain stopped play.
