Members of the Bangladesh Test squad and team management who were part of the Australia series attended the event, where CWAB presented special commemorative gifts to the members of the team in recognition of their achievement.

Bangladesh made history by winning the first Test in Darwin before Australia levelled the series with an innings-and-51-run victory in Mackay.
