Bangladesh HP Secures Dominant Victory in First ODM Against Northern Territory
In the first one-day match of their tour to Australia, Bangladesh HP (High Performance) achieved a commanding 112-run victory against Northern Territory. Bangladesh HP scored 250 runs, demolishing the opposition, who could only manage 138 runs. The opening partnership of Tanzid Tamim and Parvez Hossain Emon, along with the bowlers' performance, ensured a big win.
Batting first in Darwin, Bangladesh HP scored 250 runs in their innings. Tanzid Hasan Tamim made a fifty, scoring the highest for the team with 53 runs, while opening partner Parvez Hossain Emon contributed 47 runs.

Despite losing the toss and batting first, Bangladesh HP demonstrated dominance from the start. The opening partnership was broken in the 20th over with the dismissal of Parvez Hossain Emon. Although Emon fell just 3 runs short of his fifty, Tanzid Tamim made no mistake in reaching his fifty. Number three batter Zishan Alam scored 11 runs, including one six and one four. Tanzid Tamim was eventually dismissed for 53.
Touring ODI captain Afif Hossain Dhruv could manage only 6 runs. Meanwhile, vice-captain Akbar Ali scored 26 runs, Shamiim Hossain 20 runs, and Mahfuzur Rahman Rabbi added 17 runs, pushing the team's total beyond 200. In the final stages, Abu Haider Roni displayed responsible batting, scoring a crucial 38 runs off 41 balls, bringing Bangladesh's total to 250.
In response, four bowlers claimed two wickets each: Mahfuzur Rahman Rabbi, Abu Haider Roni, Mukidul Islam Mugdho, and Rakibul Hasan. Consequently, Northern Territory was dismissed for just 138 runs, well before the allotted overs were completed.
The Northern Territory batters struggled significantly against the Bangladeshi bowlers in Darwin. Only four players reached double figures. Opener Jacob Dickman top-scored with 51 runs off 87 balls, while Hamish Martin contributed the second-highest score of 17. Ultimately, Northern Territory lost all their wickets, falling 8 overs short of completing their innings.
