Matt Renshaw's all-round show with an unbeaten 89 and a wicket helped Australia with a seven-run win over Bangladesh in the second T20 in Chattogram on Friday to seal the three-match series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Renshaw's career-best score after Australia won the toss and decided to bat first helped the visitors reach 196-5, which they defended in a last-over thriller, with Bangladesh only managing 189-6.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Chasing 197, Bangladesh made a blistering start through openers Tanzid Hasan and Saif Hassan, who put on 48 in just 3.4 overs to raise hopes of a series-levelling win.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Tanzid smashed 30 off 15 balls with four fours and a six before Renshaw made the breakthrough, taking a sharp return catch off his own bowling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Soumya Sarkar kept up the momentum as Bangladesh raced to 72-1 at the end of the powerplay, but Adam Zampa removed him for 15 to slow the charge.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Parvez Hossain Emon then counter-attacked, hammering 36 off 22 balls and combining with Saif in a 53-run stand to keep Bangladesh on course.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But Australia came back in the game when Aaron Hardie dismissed Emon, with captain Mitchell Marsh taking a running catch at cover, before Joel Davies removed the set Saif for 42.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bangladesh needed 63 runs off the last 40 balls, with captain Towhid Hridoy holding the line.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Hridoy fought till the end with a brisk 35 off 22 balls, sharing a 36-run stand with Abdul Gaffar Saqlain, but was caught on the boundary with Bangladesh needing eight off the last ball of the chase.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We were moving according to plan," Emon said after the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"I felt the biggest damage was my wicket and Saif's wicket falling back-to-back," he added. "We fell a bit behind there, otherwise it was looking very good."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Australia's Hardie took two wickets, while Nathan Ellis, Renshaw, Zampa and Davies claimed one each.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Earlier, Renshaw's innings lifted the visitors after they stumbled to 44-3 inside the powerplay.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Josh Inglis and Marsh gave the tourists a brisk start before Nasum Ahmed dismissed Inglis for 11 and Nahid Rana removed the in-form Cooper Connolly for one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Mustafizur Rahman then sent back Marsh for 20 on the final ball of the powerplay.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Renshaw rebuilt with Tim David, whose 45 off 26 balls came in a match-defining 97-run stand.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"It's nice to get a couple of wins and wrap up the series after two games," Renshaw said after the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The T20 series win comes after Australia's shock 2-1 loss in the preceding one-day international series earlier this month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Yeah, a little bit," Renshaw said when asked if the result felt like settling scores.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"The one-day series, it was a few really good games," he added. "It felt like every game we were just a little bit shy."
