Australia completed a commanding 3-0 clean sweep over Bangladesh in the T20I series after securing a seven-wicket win in the third and final match on Sunday. Chasing a modest target of 110, the visitors overpowered the hosts with a clinical batting display, finishing the contest in just 11 overs and reinforcing their dominance throughout the series.

Captain Mitchell Marsh once again led from the front with a destructive knock, scoring 60 off just 28 deliveries. His innings included seven boundaries and four towering sixes, as he took full advantage of the powerplay to put Australia firmly in control. Marsh set the tone early, ensuring that Bangladesh’s bowlers had little room to settle into rhythm or apply pressure during the chase.

Australia’s opening partnership proved decisive, with Marsh and Josh Inglis adding 54 runs in the first six overs. Inglis contributed a quick 17 before being dismissed by left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed, but by then the foundation of the chase had already been laid. The aggressive start effectively neutralised Bangladesh’s hopes of mounting a defence of their low total.

Bangladesh had earlier struggled to build momentum after being put in to bat. Despite captain Towhid Hridoy’s composed unbeaten 61 off 51 balls, the hosts faltered due to a lack of partnerships and consistent breakthroughs by the Australian bowling unit. Hridoy played responsibly under pressure, striking three fours and three sixes, but found little support from the other end as wickets fell at regular intervals.

The rest of the Bangladesh batting lineup failed to capitalise, with only Rishad Hossain reaching double figures apart from the captain. The team finished at 109 for 8 in their allotted overs, a total that ultimately proved insufficient on a surface that still offered value for stroke play. Australia’s disciplined bowling effort ensured Bangladesh never gained momentum, with Spencer Johnson, Nathan Ellis, and Adam Zampa each claiming two wickets.

Although Bangladesh introduced three changes to their XI in an attempt to avoid a series whitewash, the tactical adjustments did little to alter the outcome. Australia’s depth in both batting and bowling was once again evident, with Tim David finishing the match in style by hitting two consecutive sixes to seal victory. While Bangladesh had earlier claimed the ODI series 2-1, they were comprehensively outplayed in the T20 format as Australia asserted full control from start to finish.
