The QAS were dismissed for 176 with Carseldine undefeated on 31. Hossain took 3/25 and Islam, 2/37.
Bangladesh, in their second innings are 4/96 after 41 overs, chasing 175 to win. Opening batsman, Sarker, is on 33 and Kapali is 25. They added 45 before Sarker was dismissed and are now 5/96.
They require 79 runs in 40 overs.

Disappointing result for the Bangers and for the upcoming Tests against the Aussies. They lost by 30 runs.
A win would've added some much needed interest to their tour but QAS youngsters, Damien McKenzie, 3/28 and Chris Simpson, 2/15 had other ideas.

This morning on the radio I heard that ABC, and Channel 9 (I think it was nine) were planning on broadcasting the up coming Test matches. I was wondering, is that true? It was on the sports news of 101.7 HO FM down here in Hobart. I don't know if I was awake, or asleep listening to it, but it would be good to see it live on T.V.

Bangladeshi opener Javed Omar (59) added 146 with Habibul Bashar before a tumble of wickets.
Bashar went within an ace of being the first of his countrymen to score a century on Australian soil as 6 wickets fell for 55 before a declaration came at 7/232, 26 behind.
Callum Ferguson, an 18 y.o., took 2/5 from 5 overs and Aaron nye took 2/40 from 18.
After 8 overs of their second innings, the CBCA is 1/27

Well they didn't take any early wickets as Nye (89 n.o.) and Ferguson (48 n.o.) added 131 before a sporting declaration.
Bangladesh needed 230 runs from 71 overs to win.
As things stand, they need 19 from 26 balls with 4 wickets remaining. Kapali (44) and Mahmud (11) have put on 34 and are hanging in.

Now they need 14 from the last over. Seems unlikely, the way the last two overs have gone.
Now 11 from 2 balls. Looks like they decided on a draw. 10 needed from the last ball.
Well, now I see they are bowling the 72nd over. Incorrect info before. Must have been 71 overs minimum. First ball - a wicket.
Now 8/228. 1 ball to come, 2 to win !!
Mahmud smacks a 4. They win !!!!

Bangladesh eke out thrilling victory
Wisden Cricinfo staff - July 5, 2003
Bangladesh set themselves up for the daunting task of a Test series against Australia with a thrilling victory over the Commonwealth Bank Academy at the Allan Border Field in Brisbane. Set 230 to win, they overcame a mid-innings wobble to eke home with just six minutes, and two wickets, to spare.
Mohammad Ashraful anchored the innings with a classy 61, while Alok Kapali chipped in with a pugnacious 44. But it was the two senior men, the Khaleds - Mashud and Mahmud - who did the damage late on with some adventurous shotmaking. Both made 28, and Mahmud - the captain - finished things off with a four over mid-on.
The result was set up by the academy declaring their innings at 203 for 4 earlier in the day. Resuming at 99 for 4, Aaron Nye and Callum Ferguson were largely untroubled in the morning session. Nye hit three big sixes and was unbeaten on 89 when the declaration came, with Ferguson not out on 48.
Bangladesh started poorly, with Mark Cleary nipping out both Javed Omar and Habibul Bashar early in the innings. Ashraful put the innings back on track, but his dismissal - caught behind off Steven Magoffin - left Bangladesh in dire straits at 134 for 5. But Kapali, Mashud and Mahmud then combined to see it home, upping the run-rate to decisive effect after a period of consolidation. For the Academy, Peter Worthington took 3 for 31.
The declarations were pivotal in ensuring a result, but Bangladesh won't care too much. For a team starved of any sort of success, even against the likes of Canada, this is a massive shot in the arm. Mind you, it's Australia that await just up the road.

Whatmore expects Darwin pitch to be slow
Lynn McConnell - July 7, 2003
It is a subject of feverish speculation as to how the portable pitch to be used in Darwin for Bangladesh's historic international matches there will behave. Dav Whatmore, Bangadesh's coach, believes that it might be a slow one.
Speaking to ABC Radio, Whatmore said: "It's a drop-in pitch. [There] seems to be some indication it might be slow but we'll never really know until you start playing."
Bangladesh will not have to wait long to find out. On Friday they take on the Chief Minister's XI, less than a week after their two-wicket win over the Commonwealth Bank Academy side. If Whatmore's prognosis about the pitch is confirmed, they will face the Australian new-ball attack with somewhat more confidence than you'd expect from international cricket's fledglings.
Meanwhile the Chief Minister, Clare Martin, has announced the team to play Bangladesh. The local side has been bolstered by the inclusion of Michael Clarke, who will captain the team, and Australian allrounder Nathan Hauritz, who played for Queensland's Academy XI in Bangladesh's first tour game.
"I wanted to give Territorians an opportunity to play against Bangladesh," said Martin, "and I know a squad of local cricketers have been training in preparation for the match."
James Sutherland, Cricket Australia's chief executive, said that the decision to include two CA-contracted players would help generate further interest in the game. Clarke and Hauritz have recently returned from the tour to West Indies and represent Australia's next generation of players, having already played for the national side in one-day intenationals.
Martin also renewed a call for volunteers, inviting Territorians to grab the opportunity to be involved in the staging of international cricket. She said that each volunteer would have an opportunity to watch the cricket after performing their duties, which would take up only three hours of their time. Apart from free entry, they would also receive a free polo shirt and hat, lunch and an opportunity to be involved in one of Territory's major sporting events.
Chief Minister's XI squad
Michael Clarke (captain), Darren Treumer (vice-captain), Terry Bayly, Nick Berry, Anthony Dent, Mark Hatton, Brad Hatton, Nathan Hauritz, Tim Knox, Adrian McAdam, Ian Redpath, Ken Skewes, Ken Vowles, Ashley Williams.
