Hasan Mahmud Joins Nathan Lyon In Elite List With Sylhet Six-wicket Haul
Sylhet International Cricket Stadium: Bangladesh fast bowler Hasan Mahmud continued his stellar Test form, taking a six-wicket haul in the second Test against West Indies at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Friday. Mahmud, who played a key role in Bangladesh's historic Test win over Australia in Darwin earlier in August, took 6-90 in the first innings of the second Test on Day 2, continuing his strong form. This was Mahmud's fifth five-wicket haul in Test cricket, and all of them have come in different countries. This makes him just the second bowler, alongside Nathan Lyon, to have taken their first five Test five-fors in five different countries. Mahmud has taken fifers in Pakistan (5-43 vs Pakistan in Rawalpindi 2024), India (5-83 vs India in Chennai 2024), Australia (6-55 vs Australia in Darwin 2026), Abu Dhabi (5-55 vs Afghanistan 2026) and now Bangladesh (6-90 vs West Indies 2026). Before him, only Nathan Lyon had taken his first five Test fifers in five different nations. The Aussie great took his first five fifers in Sri Lanka (5-34 vs Sri Lanka 2011), West Indies (5-68 vs West Indies 2012, India (7-94 vs India 2013), Melbourne (5-50 vs England 2013) and South Africa (5-130 vs South Africa 2014) Mahmud has been one of the fastest-rising fast bowlers in the world. He took a hat-trick during the one-off Test against Afghanistan in October and became the first speedster from his country to take a hat-trick in the format. He came close to another hat-trick in the second Test against the West Indies, taking back-to-back wickets and nearly getting a third, but an inside edge off Joshua Bishop's bat saved the batter and denied the bowler a hat-trick.

Australia Recruit Mike Hussey As Consultant For Ashes And 2027 World Cup
Mike Hussey was Friday appointed a consultant coach to the Australian team for next year's blockbuster Ashes series against England and the 2027 World Cup. The former Australian batsmen revealed in August that England's new red-ball coach, Stephen Fleming, had informally approached him to be their Test batting mentor. But the 51-year-old knocked back the audacious offer and has instead committed himself to helping his home nation arrest a batting crisis highlighted by their recent 2-1 Test series defeat in South Africa. Hussey, known as Mr Cricket for his technical expertise, will also provide coaching assistance during this month's home T20 series against England and the subsequent four-Test series against New Zealand. He will additionally work with Australia during the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, where cricket is on the agenda, and the T20 World Cup in 2028. I am extremely excited about being a part of the team in a more formal and meaningful role in the coming years, said Hussey, who played more than 300 matches for Australia across all formats. This team has achieved so much in recent times, to which I hope I can add value to the coaching and playing groups ahead of what will be an exciting and challenging period. Hussey has extensive experience as a coach, including with both Australia and England. He was part of England's coaching setup when they won the T20 World Cup in 2022 and was the Chennai Super Kings' long-time batting coach under Fleming in the Indian Premier League. He also led Welsh Fire in this year's Hundred. Mike has been a highly valued part of our staff in the past and brings a considerable skill set which is complementary to the coaches and players, said Australian head coach Andrew McDonald. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Not only is his expertise as a player and coach across multiple formats, competitions, countries invaluable, so are his qualities as a person.
