Tanzid Hasan scored a century against Australia.

Bangladesh's Tanzid Hasan has made history. He scored a century in the Test match against Australia being played in Darwin. This is Tanzid's first Test century, making him the first Bangladeshi batsman to score a Test century on Australian soil. He reached the century in 188 balls.

He became the first player to do so.

Bangladesh has been playing Test cricket for the past 26 years, but in these two and a half decades, no batsman has scored a Test century in Australia. Tanzid Hasan is the first to do so. He scored 101 runs in this fighting innings and wrote new history in Bangladesh cricket before falling to Nathan Lyon.

On the other hand, only one Bangladeshi batsman has ever scored a century against Australia in Test cricket. Shahriar Nafees achieved this feat in 2006, scoring 138 runs in the first innings. Shahriar Nafees still holds the record for most runs scored by a Bangladeshi batsman in a single innings against Australia. However, the difference is that Bangladesh played that Test match at home, while Tanzid thrashed the Australian bowlers in their own backyard.

The catch was missed at 0

Tanzid Hasan's century is also historic because Nathan Lyon dropped his catch in the second over of the innings. Tanzid hadn't even opened his account at the time. Seizing that opportunity, Tanzid scored a memorable and historic century. He scored 101 runs in the first innings, off 197 balls, and hit eight fours and a six.

Tanzid made his Test debut against Pakistan this year and is now playing only the second match of his Test career against Australia.

25-year-old Tanzid has scored 1044 runs in 40 ODIs, including one century, in his international career. He has 1331 runs in 53 T20Is. He managed just 30 runs in both innings of his debut match against Pakistan. However, he has now scored a century in just his third Test innings.

Australia was bowled out for 198

Earlier, Bangladesh's bowlers also put up a remarkable and historic performance. Only Steve Smith, who scored 71 runs, managed to stay afloat. Fast bowler Hasan Mahmud wreaked havoc for Bangladesh, taking six wickets in a 17-over spell.
