CHITTAGONG: Offspinner Nathan Lyon claimed 7-94 as Australia dismissed Bangladesh for 305 before ending the morning session at 15-1 on day two of the series-deciding second test.
Captain Steven Smith was batting on 8 and his deputy, David Warner, was unbeaten on 2 at the first interval. Matt Renshaw was dismissed on 4, chasing a leg-side delivery from Mustafizur Rahman (1-9) and giving Mushfiqur Rahim a diving catch behind the stumps.
Lyon struck in his just second ball of the day, dismissing Mushfiqur Rahim for 68 after Bangladesh resumed the on 253-6.
Rahim was surprised by the sharp turn and bounce that Lyon extracted from the pitch. In chanceless innings, lasting for 166 balls, Rahim hit five boundaries.
Rahim and Nasir Hossain combined for a 43-run partnership for the seventh wicket to get Bangladesh closer to the 300 mark.
Hossain played a restrained knock until he forced for a cut shot against a left arm spin bowler Ashton Agar (2-52) delivery, ending his 45-run knock. He hit five boundaries off 97 balls.
Mehidy Hasan (11) and Taijul Islam (9) helped Bangladesh surpass 300 before Lyon struck again to finish the Bangladesh innings, leaving Australia four overs to bat before lunch.
