Bangladesh scripted history as they defeated Australia by nine wickets in Darwin. The visitors registered their first Test victory on Australian soil

Bangladesh took only three matches for the feat, becoming the Asian team to get to the milestone in the lowest number of Tests

Bangladesh has bettered Pakistan, who won their first match in Australia in seven Tests. India's first Test victory in Australia came in their 12th match

The nine-wicket victory is also Bangladesh's second-biggest Test win by wickets. Their biggest came in 2024, when they defeated Pakistan by 10 wickets in Rawalpindi

The result marked another major milestone for Bangladesh in Test cricket, with the Darwin triumph being only their second Test victory in a SENA country: South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia. Their first win came against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui in 2022

Bangladesh's victory also ended Australia's long-standing home dominance against Asian teams. Australia had not lost a home Test to an Asian side other than India since 1995. The Darwin result was Bangladesh's second Test victory over Australia in seven meetings. Their previous win came in 2017, when they defeated Australia in Mirpur.
