Josh Hazlewood became the ninth Australian bowler to reach 300 Test wickets after picking up a six-wicket haul during the first Test against Bangladesh in Darwin. Milestone Achievement: Hazlewood reached the 300-wicket landmark in his 26th over when Mehidy Hasan Miraz edged behind to the wicketkeeper. He finished with figures of 6 for 70—his fourth Test six-wicket haul and his first in nine years. Exclusive Bowling Club: He joins current teammates Nathan Lyon, Pat Cummins, and Mitchell Starc in the 300-wicket club. The four form the only Test bowling attack in cricket history to play together with each bowler possessing 300+ Test wickets. Elite Average: Among the nine Australians to reach 300 Test wickets, only Glenn McGrath (21.64), Pat Cummins (22.21), and Dennis Lillee (23.92) boast a better career Test bowling average than Hazlewood's 24.02. Impact in Darwin: After sitting out previous Test matches due to injury, Hazlewood broke multiple key partnerships—including dismissing top-scorer Tanzid Hasan (101) and captain Najmul Hossain Shanto (84)—to lead Australia's bowling effort on a flat batting surface. 300th Test Wicket Milestone: Josh Hazlewood reached his 300th Test wicket in his 26th over on Day 3 by dismissing Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who edged behind to Alex Carey trying to drive on the up. He became the ninth Australian bowler to achieve 300 Test wickets. Key Wickets: Najmul Hossain Shanto: Hazlewood broke a crucial stand by bowling around the wicket with the second new ball to dismiss the Bangladesh captain for 84. Hasan Mahmud: Trapped lbw for a 92-ball 14 after a review on Mehidy was overturned earlier in the spell. Taijul Islam: Dismissed via extra bounce as Cameron Green took a leading edge in the gully. Ebadot Hossain: Caught behind to wrap up Bangladesh's first innings and complete his 6-wicket haul (6 for 89). 4th Career Six-For: The 6 for 89 marked Hazlewood's fourth Test six-wicket haul and his first in nine years. Post-Match Reaction: Hazlewood praised Bangladesh's resilience, noting that "they hung in there tough" on a hard-working track where Australia had to bowl tight to limit run-flow.
