  1. Goodbye!

    That was speedy, wasn't it?

    Callum's report is ready if you want to catch up with how Australia just demolished Bangladesh.

    We'll be back in an hour to see Sri Lanka play West Indies.

    In a bit.

    The quickest T20 game I can remember was in Bangladesh funnily enough. You can bowl sides out for 50 or 60 there but it is hard to knock that off in five or six overs over there!

  3. Player of the match Adam Zampa, who took 5-19: "It's a pretty nice feeling. A five-for in T20 cricket has eluded me for a while.

    "I had three overs between my hat-trick delivery, so I don't think anyone knew. If it wasn't for Wadey's hands I wouldn't have as many wickets as I have.

    "The overs I bowled today was purely about taking wickets. We needed to chase down a low score today so we tried to be aggressive."

  4. How's stat?!

    In a World T20 this is the second-largest victory in terms of ball left. The biggest was Sri Lanka beating Netherlands in 2014.

  5. Aaron Finch's 40 came from just 20 balls, with two fours and four sixes.

  6. That win takes Australia above South Africa...

    The shot to finish was the shot of the match. What a shot!

    That's a statement from Australia. They want to stay in this competition. They obliterated Bangladesh.

  9. A casual 82 balls to spare in that absolute demolition job from Australia.

  10. 6 runs

    AUSTRALIA WIN BY EIGHT WICKETS!
    Breaking

    That, my friends, is an absolute mauling.

    Mitchell Marsh swings an absolutely giant six away, and Australia complete their run chase in just 6.2 overs. My word.

  11. Aus 72-2

    Wide. Two runs needed.

  12. Aus 71-2

    Oh, shot!

    Mitchell Marsh absolutely wallops Taskin Ahmed over cover for four.

  13. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    South Africa will be watching this and thinking this is the last thing they wanted.

  14. Glenn Maxwell has come out to join Mitchell Marsh.

    Australia are just swinging from the hip, and taking outrageous risks.

    WICKET

    Warner b Shoriful 18 (Aus 67-2)

    David Warner goes for another big, thumping drive, and misses by a mile.

    Not that it matters, really. Australia need seven runs from 84 balls. I dunno, they might just do that.

  17. Aus 66-1

    The free hit costs just a single, but Australia need just eight runs to win.

  18. Aus 65-1

    Ouch. A no ball, and here comes the free hit.

  19. Aus 63-1

    Michell Marsh is off the mark with a huge wallop through mid-wicket for four.

    Australia need 11 runs to win.
