Australia pacer takes 8/25 as Bangladesh bowled out for 54, lose match by an innings

Bangladesh were bowled out for just 54 in their second innings to lose their three-day tour match against a Cricket Australia XI by an innings and 38 runs, giving Australia’s bowling attack plenty to take note of ahead of next week’s first Test in Darwin.Campbell Thompson was the main contributor to Bangladesh’s collapse, taking eight wickets for 25 runs in the second innings at Marrara Oval. The 22-year-old left-arm fast bowler had taken two wickets late on Friday before returning on Saturday morning to claim six more as Bangladesh lost eight wickets for 35 runs.Marrara Oval, where the tour match was played, is different from Marrara Stadium, which will host the first Test from Thursday.Thompson made his South Australia debut last summer and has played only one Sheffield Shield match and two One-Day Cup games. He had, however, faced international opposition previously when he represented the Prime Minister’s XI against the England Lions in November last year.Bangladesh began the third morning at 15 for two in their second innings but lasted only 17 more overs. Opener Tanzid Hasan was the only batter to reach double figures, scoring 22.Thompson took the first five wickets to fall after beginning Bangladesh’s collapse the previous evening. Off-spinner Corey Rocchiccioli then briefly took over, adding to the six wickets he had claimed in Bangladesh’s first innings.Thompson soon returned to finish the job. He dismissed Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto lbw for a duck before taking the final two wickets with consecutive deliveries.The defeat leaves Bangladesh with four days to prepare for their first Test in Australia in 23 years, where they are set to face Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood.Bangladesh had scored 263 in their first innings, with Mehidy Hasan Miraz making a century at No. 7 after the top order struggled on the opening day. The CA XI replied with 355, while Bangladesh seamer Hasan Mahmud took four wickets for 42 runs.
