Bangladesh dominates day one of the first Test after Hasan Mahmud takes a career-best 6-55, helping dismiss Australia for 198. Multiple reports highlight that Bangladesh’s pace attack keeps pressure on Australia’s batting throughout the session.
With Australia all out for 198, Bangladesh moves ahead in the opening phase of their response. By the end of play, Bangladesh reaches 96-1, which reduces their first-innings deficit to 102 runs.
Across the outlets, the main focus is Bangladesh’s bowling performance on day one and Mahmud’s six-wicket haul. Sources describe the host’s top order (“Big Four” referenced by some) as being overshadowed, while the match context is framed around Bangladesh’s control entering the second day.
