Rishad experiment fails after Litton’s dismissal
Asked to bat first, Bangladesh were off to the worst possible start as they lost opener Tanzid Hasan early.
Mitchell Starc looked to use the breeze by going full and taking the ball away from the southpaw and a little under edge saw him get cleaned up for a duck.
Najmul Hossain Shanto showed intent against both the new-ball bowlers. He has been the aggressor in the partnership between him and Litton.
Litton Das played out a maiden off Josh Hazlewood and took 10 deliveries to get off the mark.
He did get a couple of boundaries off Starc later but generally struggled to get going on a pitch that looked decent for batting.
Adam Zampa got the better of him in the ninth over as a desperate attempt to bail himself out of trouble with the sweep went wrong.
He, though, added 58 off eight overs with Shanto to help Bangladesh recover after an early stutter.
Bangladesh made an experiment by sending Rishad Hossain up the order but it did not come off as Glenn Maxwell snared him next over.
After 10 overs, Bangladesh are 67-3.
