Hazlewood picks up a single by just opening the face of the bat and dashing through to get Lyon back on strike.

still a concern and no one is more concerned than Marnus Labuschagne. The commentators are chatting about him this morning and Mark Waugh is adamant that if he doesn\u2019t score runs in the second innings, his time in the team is over. The problem may be that there aren\u2019t enough runs for him to get to prove himself. I\u2019m interested to hear from you \u2013 who do you think should hold the number 3 spot? Is it Marnus? Or have you got your eye on someone else?<\/p>\n<footer class=\"dcr-i9zbi8\"><gu-island name=\"ShareButton\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{&quot;size&quot;:&quot;xsmall&quot;,&quot;pageId&quot;:&quot;sport\/live\/2026\/aug\/23\/aus-vs-ban-second-mens-test-day-two-live&quot;,&quot;hash&quot;:&quot;block-6a8a35738f089694d1d5ac17&quot;,&quot;queryParams&quot;:{&quot;page&quot;:&quot;with:block-6a8a35738f089694d1d5ac17&quot;},&quot;webTitle&quot;:&quot;Australia v Bangladesh: second men\u2019s Test, day two \u2013 live&quot;,&quot;format&quot;:{&quot;design&quot;:11,&quot;display&quot;:0,&quot;theme&quot;:2},&quot;context&quot;:&quot;LiveBlock&quot;}\"><a href=\"mailto:?subject=Australia v Bangladesh: second men\u2019s Test, day two \u2013 live&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2026\/aug\/23\/aus-vs-ban-second-mens-test-day-two-live?CMP=share_btn_url&amp;page=with%3Ablock-6a8a35738f089694d1d5ac17#block-6a8a35738f089694d1d5ac17\" type=\"button\" class=\"dcr-10ju04u\">Share<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"-3 -3 30 30\" focusable=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M19 16c1.675 0 3 1.35 3 3 0 1.675-1.325 3-3 3a2.97 2.97 0 0 1-2.975-3c0-.125 0-.275.025-.375L7.1 14.15a2.9 2.9 0 0 1-2.075.825C3.325 14.975 2 13.65 2 12a3.004 3.004 0 0 1 3.025-3.025c.775 0 1.5.35 2.075.875l8.95-4.475c-.025-.1-.025-.225-.025-.4A2.966 2.966 0 0 1 19 2c1.675 0 3 1.325 3 2.975C22 6.65 20.675 8 19 8c-.8 0-1.475-.325-2.05-.825l-8.975 4.45C8 11.7 8 11.825 8 12s0 .3-.025.375l8.975 4.45c.575-.5 1.25-.825 2.05-.825m0-12.8c-.975 0-1.8.775-1.8 1.775S18.025 6.8 19 6.8c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.825S20 3.2 19 3.2m0 17.6c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.8 0-1-.825-1.8-1.825-1.8-.975 0-1.8.8-1.8 1.8 0 .975.825 1.8 1.8 1.8\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/gu-island><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<article id=\"block-6a899b418f08582f53531cff\" class=\"block dcr-wo4zmo\">\n<header class=\"dcr-dm96fu\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">And if you\u2019re still wondering why on earth there\u2019s Test cricket happening up in the tropics in winter, you might need to take one more step back and read about what happened in Darwin last week.

Play begins at 10am AEST.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Day one was quite something with 18 wickets falling in the day\u2019s play. While Australia are on top with a lead of 101 runs, they will be disappointed in their inability to really pile on a commanding score and bat Bangladesh out of the contest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">If you asked me to sum up the first day of this Test in three words, I\u2019d have to go with \u201cleft arm pace\u201d. Both Mitchell Starc (6-12) and Shoriful Islam (6-35) were on song with the ball and took advantage of a good wicket to snaffle six wickets apiece.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Shoriful also top scored for his team with the bat, however since that top score was 14, he\u2019s probably not in a big hurry to write home about that, despite the fact that his tail-wagging antics frustrated the Australian bowlers no end and saved Bangladesh from recording their lowest-ever Test innings score.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Australia\u2019s batting had a few more bright spots, with Cameron Green passing late in the day and Steve Smith contributing 42. But their opening woes continue with replacement opener Matt Renshaw only able to add eight runs before he was dismissed (surprisingly not by Shoriful).<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">All this wicket-falling mayhem on day one has set us up brilliantly, so let\u2019s get into the second day and see what it has in store for us!<\/p>\n<footer class=\"dcr-i9zbi8\"><gu-island
