Another one-sided encounter and that's the series for Australia. Marsh continues to be among the runs and he picks up the Man-of-the-Match award for his unbeaten 69. Do join us for the final one-dayer on Saturday. Hope Bangladesh put up a better show. On behalf of Kanishkaa Balachandran, this is Siddarth Ravindran signing off
