PERFORMER OF THE DAY: Mehedi Hasan

With a lot expected of Mehedi Hasan Miraz after his heroics against England less than a year ago, he finally came to the party in Chittagong with three crucial wickets. With Australia looking to drive home the advantage and the pitch not very responsive, Mehedi relied on his craftiness and accuracy to send back the dangerous Glenn Maxwell, who edged the off-spinner into his pads for the keeper to take the catch. He then had Hilton Cartwright caught at slip off a straighter one. And as if to show the extent of his variations, he then trapped Pat Cummins in front as the batsman shouldered arms to a ripping off-spinner.
