Tanzid Hasan Makes History in Australia | Auckland News

Tanzid Hasan just etched his name in history as the first Bangladeshi to score a Test century on Australian soil, smashing 101 to steer Bangladesh to a commanding 351 for 6 — and they’re in full control. Debuting just months ago, Tanzid’s innings was anchored by key partnerships, including a 102-run stand with Mominul Haque and a 93-run alliance with Najmul Hossain Shanto. Even as Australia struggled under the heat and lost quick wickets, Bangladesh roared back thanks to a crucial 43-run stand between Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Hasan Mahmud — and even a dropped catch at the end added to Australia’s woes. With the pitch still batting-friendly and momentum firmly with Bangladesh, this is more than just a century — it’s a landmark moment for Bangladeshi cricket, proving their growing strength on the global stage.
