Bangladesh off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz was sensational on Day 4 as he dismantled Australia's middle order, sending the visitors to the cusp of a historic series win while etching his name in World Test Championship history.

Australia were 161/4 batting their second innings when they were pushed to the brink of disaster once again by the off-spin of Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Having already removed Steve Smith late on Day 3, Mehidy came back on Sunday morning and sent down another seven dot balls before lunch to claim three more wickets, as Australia were reduced to 243/7.

Morning Session Blitz for Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Mehidy Hasan Miraz struck early in the session as he drew an inside edge off the bat of Alex Carey, which was safely gathered by the wicketkeeper Litton Das. He then sent the first ball past Beau Webster's defense to break the stumps of the opener.

The new ball was to prove a profitable one for Mehidy Hasan Miraz as he saw the inside edge off the bat of Australia's captain Pat Cummins, which was a simple catch for short leg Shadman Islam to pouch.

WTC Milestone and Elite All-Rounder Club

Cummins' dismissal marked Mehidy Hasan Miraz's 100th wicket in World Test Championship history. The 28-year-old became the first Bangladeshi player to achieve the prestigious WTC double of 1,000 runs and 100 wickets, bringing his career tally to 1,436 runs and 100 scalps across 32 matches.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz's bowling brilliance saw off Australia's first innings as Bangladesh's number seven batter put in a painstaking 65 from 154 balls to post a formidable total of 426 and a huge 228-run first-innings lead. His all-round display of brilliance saw him register his 100th wicket in WTC in Darwin on Friday.

With his brilliant all-round display, he has ensured Bangladesh one of its most crucial Test wins.
