    Time for me to disappear and write the report - I might not have that long!

    Amy Lofthouse will take you through Australia's chase of 74.

    Australia can't afford to lose too many quick wickets which put a brake on proceedings. They need to be smart in chasing it down. Getting it inside 10 overs should be enough for the net run-rate.

    Australia will need just 74 to win then.

    You would imagine they will look to chase them down quicktime and boost their net run-rate.

    They are currently about 1.3 points behind South Africa so have a bit of catching up to do.

    It's been a tame effort from Bangladesh. It's not the way they wanted to end this tournament with the bat. They've been bundled out.

    Shoriful c Finch b Zampa 0 (Ban 73 all out)

    Adam Zampa has five and Bangladesh are 73 all out!

    Shoriful Islam looks to drive away but gets a thick edge to Aaron Finch, who takes a good catch at slip.

    Adam Zampa finishes with 5-19. They are career-best figures and the best figures in this World Cup so far.

    Mustafizur got a decent piece of it. At least it went outside the 30 yard circle, unlike the other efforts.

    Australia are looking to finish this off quickly and I imagine they will go hard at Bangladesh. They can be five down, the key is to just get the runs quickly.

    Mustafizur c Smith b Zampa 4 (Ban 73-9)

    Ravi Bopara is right.

    Mustafizur Rahman looks to hit down the ground but Steve Smith, a few yards in from the long-on boundary, takes a good catch above his head.

    Adam Zampa has 4-19 and two balls to complete a five-wicket haul.

    You got gloves on. Those big mitts. It's a difficult one. It's a thick edge and you expect that to be taken.

    It was a difficult chance. Wade had to go to his left-hand side.

    Taskin dropped on 3published at 14.1 overs

    Oh no!

    Taskin Ahmed looks to drive away but gets quite a thick edge. Matthew Wade gets his hands there but the ball spills out. Those are the sort of ones that either stick or they don't.

    Zampa shouts "that was my hat-trick ball" to Wade, who replies "Yeah, I tried to catch it".

    Time for Adam Zampa's hat-trick ball...

    I've been really disappointed with Bangladesh in this World Cup. I really thought they'd upset some big teams on these big fields. Shakib's injury hasn't helped them but there haven't been many runs scored from the senior players. They just haven't coped with the conditions outside of Bangladesh.

    Pat Cummins isn't having much luck.

    Mustafizur Rahman carves over the covers for a couple, before just driving over mid-off for two more.

    I would have gone with Zampa. It would tempt these two to play some big shots and I don't think they'd clear the ropes.

    Pat Cummins is back for Australia.

    He's got figures of 0-13 from his first two overs.

    It's been a decent day out for Starc today. Bangladesh are going nowhere from here. Apart from a defeat.

    Christian Evans: Just seen the first Starc wicket, WOW, he swung that round a corner.

    Mustafizur didn't want any of that. His toes were well out the way.
