How India’s WTC final hopes take a hit after Bangladesh's historic win over Australia: Explained

Bangladesh pulled off a nine-wicket win over Australia in Darwin on Sunday, giving them one of the biggest wins in Test cricket and leaving Australia's 20-Test schedule over the next 12 months off to a difficult start.Cameron Green's maiden Test century at home delayed the result, but Bangladesh had already taken control of the match after three-and-a-half days of cricket on a Marrara Stadium pitch that offered a good contest between bat and ball.The result was unexpected given the records of the two teams. Australia had reached the last two World Test Championship (WTC) finals and won 18 of their previous 23 Tests. Bangladesh, meanwhile, had lost 22 of their previous 26 Tests outside Asia and had suffered innings defeats against Zimbabwe and a Cricket Australia XI in the previous two months.Yet Najmul Hossain Shanto's side produced a nine-wicket win in their first Test in Australia since 2003.
