Australia vs Bangladesh Cricket Series 2008
Australia vs Bangladesh Third ODI at Darwin
AUS v BAN, 3rd ODI, Darwin: Australia beat Bangladesh by 73 runs (3:0)
Sept 6, 2008
Allrounders James Hopes and Shane Watson combined for five wickets as Australia overcame a lacklustre batting performance to beat Bangladesh by 73 runs Saturday and sweep their three-match limited-overs series.
Australia posted 198-5 from its 50 overs and looked set for defeat when Bangladesh reached 82-3 in reply, but recovered to bowl out the tourists for 125.
Hopes put Australia back into the match with a career-best 3-30 and Watson had 2-8 from five overs.
The match was the closest of the series following Australia's 180-run win last weekend and its eight-wicket victory Wednesday.
Teenage opener Tamim Iqbal's impressive innings of 63 put Bangladesh in a position to repeat the upset victory over the world champions they achieved in 2005 in Cardiff.
AUS v BAN, 3rd ODI, Darwin: Australia 198 for 5 (50.0 overs) beat Bangladesh 125 for 9 (29.5 overs) by 73 runs
