Live updates: Australia vs Bangladesh first Test, day three, from Darwin

Not only that, but he sits on 299 Test wickets.

Hazlewood bowls outside off and Mehidy leaves it alone.

He defends the next.

FOUR! Swinging hard is Mehidy and he gets a bit on it, enough to take it over the top of the wicketkeeper and down to the finest of fine leg boundaries.

Square leg is coming in, and Mehidy has another swing! This time he makes better contact but with the bottom edge, the ball bouncing to Hazlewood, who shapes to throw down the stumps to keep Mehidy in his crease.

Not tidy., but Mehidy cuts a ball that was angled into him and would have gone over a fourth stump on the leg side, but gets it past gully for a single.

Taskin defends the last into the off side, down to deep backward point but doesn't take the run.

Mehidy is on strike, will he start to swing a bit more now the tail are in?

There is a fly slip in lace, two normal slips and a gully as Mehidy leaves outside off.

Fly slip has gone back to third man now as Starc comes in again, with a bouncer, that Mehidy gets under, tempted to have a swing at it but wisely pulling out of that shot.

EDGED! Over the top of the slips, an fly slip would have gobbled that up had he still been in position there, but now the ball falls to third man and they take a single.

Two balls at Taskin. Exactly what Starc would have wanted.

Taskin backs away and exposes all three stumps but still defends the ball nicely.

No sponsor on the bat, which is used to clip the ball to fine leg, but Taskin stays where he is.

A good-length ball, Taijul Islam has a swing at the ball, it takes the outside edge and flies very fast straight to a relieved looking Cam Green at gully.

That went so fast, it would have flown safe had it gone either side.

Green actually caught that as must in a display of protection as for the team, it was going straight between his eyes.

Taijul is out for 17 runs in 23 balls, Bangladesh 8-372.

SIX! My goodness! Taijul has shown those supple wrists again, clipping the ball off his pads with a wonderfully timed shot for six to deep backward square! That's an incredible shot! David Warner in the Fox commentary box is purring at that, and the Bangladesh bench, who had a great view of that ball bouncing in front of them, are up and about too. What a shot.

Taijul fends the next couple away.

There is protection now, at deep backward square and at deep point. He follows Taijul, who fends into the leg side.

Hazlewood likes that and decides to go over the wicket to the left handed batter.

Taijul gets up and fends the ball nicely into the off side.

As if by magic (see what I did there, Mike?) it's Mitch Starc.

Two slips and a gully in place, Taijul swings hard at the ball, slapping it into the covers, where the fielder makes the stop.

Taijul hammers the ball into the covers and, hang on, has Marnus Labuschagne claimed a catch here? I mean, you can't believe a single thing that he says out there on the field, so I don't know why we'd be honouring his word. The umpires are having a look. That wasn't ever even close to being a catch? He's slammed that into the ground. Marnus came up holding the ball like he's claimed a prize at the fair. That's trash from Marnus, absolute trash behaviour.

Taijul has proven he is a man of the subcontinental batting school, some nice flicky wrists through the covers, but this time he flicks to midwicket for no run.

He's not going to die trying here, is Taijul, he's looking to hit everything, but no erratically. Just looking to score.

OUCH! That's a nasty one. He cops one on the finger from Starc, which follows him. He was hit there in the warm up game that meant he was unable to bowl in the second innings of that game. That, at 141km/h from Mitch Starc, no doubt would have hurt just as much.

The last ball he clips off his pads for a single.

SHOT! Three runs for Taijul and that won't improve the rambunctious mood of Josh Hazlewood, driving past mid off with a very nice stroke.

Mehidy now gets in on the act, a neat push square for a single.

Taijul pushes into the covers and there's no run there, Marnus Lanuschagne, mouth mercifully closed this time, making the good sprawling stop.

Hazlewood follows a backing away Taijul there, who defends the ball down in front of him, wary of the bat pad away to his right.

Solid defence from Taijul, who then scampers through for a run. Hazlewood's blood will be absolutely boiling at that, as he stares at his opponent.

CLOSE! Bouncer, Mehidy swings hard but misses everything. There were two men back, and Mehidy was still taking it on. You love to see it.

Two slips, gully, short leg and Taijul ducks almost in advance of the delivery being bowled. He looks understandably tentative out there, the new man, against one of the best fast bowlers in the world.

BEATEN! A push by Taijul that, inexplicably, Marnus appeals for a catch off. He missed it by a solid six inches there - ridiculous carry on from Marnus - as one would expect.

FOUR! Lovely shot! A perfect square drive past backward point for a boundary. Great shot.

Taijul wants a single but that would have been foolish so he runs back after a couple of steps.

Bouncer from Cummins, Taijul ducks under it.

The Aussies are making great use of their sub fielder, who has been out there almost constantly since the start of play. Why? Cricket's 11-a-side. Why have a specialist fielder out there in the first half hour of the day? It's Jake Weatherald who is off now, Nathan Lyon was off before. It's not in the spirit of the game for me.

Taijul defends the last.

Hasan is having a little think and he is going to review.

It looked pretty good and, again, umpire Illingworth couldn't wait to raise the finger.

There's no edge on it, but height might be an issue? Hasan isn't the tallest but it's hit him just on the knee roll.

It's out!

A big moment. That ball was perfect, nipping back from outside off and it's hitting the top of leg stump.

A wonderful innings from Hasan, just 14 runs but 92 balls used up to keep the Aussie bowlers out there.

The pitch is doing plenty though, and that will give the Bangladeshi bowlers a lot of confidence.

It's 7-354, the lead is 156.

Two slips, gully and a bat pad now for Cummins, this is obviously the plan for Mehidy, who is 33 off 77 balls.

He defends a straight ball.

Another good, solid defensive stroke from Mehidy, who takes a single. He was trying to protect Hasan at the back end of the day yesterday but Hasan has been very good in his own right here.

Bouncer from Cummins, but not a good one, Hasan just nods his head to get under it.

The three slips and the gully rise as one to clap as Cummins forces Hasan to play at another one. Cummins, whenever he's bowling, never gives players any time to relax, they have to play an awful lot of the balls that come their way.

Hasan clips off his pads and gets a single. That's his first run in 36 balls.

Mehidy is only given one slip, and the other goes back to third man on the fly, a bouncer is sent down by Cummins and it's a great ball, Mehidy handles it well, leaning and swaying back like a heavily padded yoga instructor.

Quick decision from Umpire Richard Illingworth to raise the finger but there were two sounds there.

It was an equally quick decision from Mehidy to send the review upstairs.

Has Mehidy got an inside edge?

No he hasn't, because he's smashed his own front pad with the bat, there's not an inside edge as I thought there must have been.

BUT THE BALL IS MISSING LEG STUMP!

Not my much, it has to be said, and I do wonder whether he reviewed because he felt like he got an edge on it.

He didn't, but the angle took it away.

That ball did nip off the seam a long way. Encouraging - for Bangladesh's quicks.

The Aussies stroll out with intent and purpose, captain Pat taking responsibility with the ball in hand.

Hasan Mahmud is the man on strike, he's not been too bothered about scored of late at the back end of yesterday's day play, he gets an inside edge onto his pads first up. Hasan picks the ball up and the Fox commentators (Alyssa Healy) suggests Australia appeals to get him out handled the ball. What a low that would be... Thing is, I think she's only half joking...

Hasan defends the next.

BEATEN! A jaffa! What a ball first up, bouncing high off the pitch and just moving away a fraction, beating the shoulder of the bat! Good ball.

Down the leg side now, Cummins just a bit wayward there.

APPEAL! That looks high and leg side, so Cummins, although initially interested, waves off the enthusiasm from behind the stumps.

Three slips in place and a gully, who gathers the edge off the last ball.
