Tamim Iqbal offered Bangladesh's lone resistance with a valiant 95 as Australia restricted his side to 182 all out in Monday's Champions Trophy Group A clash.
After hitting 128 against England in Bangladesh's opening match on Thursday, Tamim was the main man once again, but this time he lacked support and was unable to stop Australia taking control at The Oval.
While Tamim was rock solid, hitting his 95 off 114 balls with six fours and three sixes, Shakib Al Hasan was the next highest scorer on 29.
Pace bowler Mitchell Starc was Australia's most effective force with four wickets from his 8.3 overs.
Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza won the toss and elected to bat against Australia in the Champions Trophy Group A clash at The Oval on Monday.
Both teams made one change, with Australia spinner Adam Zampa coming in for John Hastings, while Bangladesh opted for Mehedi Hasan in place of Mosaddek Hossain.
“It looks a very good wicket to bat on. It's used, so it might be slower later on,” Mashrafe said.
“We feel like when we scored 305 we were a bowler short. We have an exciting off-spinner who hopefully will help us.
“Hopefully we'll make a good total that we can defend.”
Squads:
Australia: Aaron Finch, David Warner, Steve Smith (captain), Moises Henriques, Glenn Maxwell, Travis Head, Matthew Wade, Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood.
Bangladesh: Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Imrul Kayes, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Sabbir Rahman, Mehedi Hasan, Mahmudullah, Mashrafe Mortaza (captain), Mustafizur Rahman, Rubel Hossain.
