Bangladesh will face Australia today in the third and last One Day International (ODI) match in Darwin of Australia. The match starts at 6.00 AM (Bangladesh Standard Time).

Star Cricket and Super Sports will telecast the match live.

Australia have already clinched the three match ODI series 2-0.

Bangladesh started their ODI campaign with a massive 180-run defeat by Australia in the first ODI in Darwin on August 30.

Later, Bangladesh tasted a huge eight-wicket defeat by mighty Australia in the second ODI on September 3.

Bangladesh and Australia faced 15 times each other. Of them, world champions Australia posted 14 victories while Bangladesh won only one clash against Australia, the powerhouse of world cricket.

Bangladesh beat Australia in Cardiff in 2005.

Stuart Clark, the Australian fast bowler said, "I'd like to see if we could do another number on them and hopefully get them out for not many, or if we bat first, get a lot of runs."

On the other hand, Ashraful, the skipper of Bangladesh team said, "Whatever we are practicing and whatever we are planning, we are just not being able to implement those in the games, out there in the middle."

The weather of Darwin will be hot and sunny, with a top temperature of 34 degrees.

The cricket viewers of the country do not want to watch poor cricket from their side any more. They want to watch fighting cricket from the Tigers. We are also waiting for that.
