Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto says he wants the team to play more Tests in the SENA region after Bangladesh rise to No. 6 in the ICC Test rankings. He describes the jump as a major achievement for the side.
Both reports link the ranking gain to Bangladesh’s performance during a historic run in Australia, where they win a first series there in 23 years. That success lifts Bangladesh above No. 9 in the rankings for the first time and moves them into the sixth spot.
The two outlets share the same core facts: the ranking climb, the 23-year drought in Australia ending with Bangladesh securing a series, and Shanto’s view of the accomplishment. Any further emphasis differs because the provided excerpts focus mainly on the achievement and the call for more SENA Tests, rather than detailing additional performances or specific reasons for Bangladesh’s broader record.
