Australia’s Mitchell Starc takes five wickets in the opening phase of the second Test against Bangladesh, striking early on Day 1. In the first four overs of the match, Starc dismisses both Bangladesh openers—captain Najmul Hossain Shanto and wicketkeeper Litton Das—leaving Bangladesh reeling at 12 for five.
The reports focus on Starc’s rapid spell and its immediate impact on Bangladesh’s innings. While both outlets highlight the same key wickets and the score at that stage, they differ mainly in framing: one outlet emphasizes the day-by-day sequence for “Day 1” while the other describes the performance in the broader context of the “second Test.” Beyond Starc’s initial breakthroughs, the available excerpts do not provide additional details on how the innings develops after the early collapse.
