Australia vs Bangladesh Live Updates, 2nd Test Day 2: Shoriful Islam took a career-best 7-48 and Cameron Green hit a valuable 67, as Australia were dismissed for 210 in their first innings on day two of the second Test against Bangladesh on Sunday to lead by 146. After 18 wickets fell on a frenetic day one in Mackay, the hosts resumed at 165-8 in reply to the visitors' 64 all out. A dogged Green brought up his eighth Test half-century shortly before stumps on Saturday and began the day on 51 with Nathan Lyon alongside him on 10. Green, who scored a century during the first Test at Darwin -- which Bangladesh won by nine wickets -- kept the scoreboard moving early with quick singles. Spin king Lyon was first to hit a boundary with a quality drive through mid-wicket off Shoriful, but Green was also in the zone and reached the ropes twice off Hasan Mahmud in the next over. (Live Scorecard)

Mitchell Starc
Australia vs Bangladesh 2nd Test Live
Good length on the pads, tucked down to fine leg for a single by Hasan. Bangladesh trail by 122 runs more.
That's more like it from Starc. Bowled with a scrambled seam around off, just darts back in off the deck. Tanzid Hasan plays a lazy drive and is beaten past the inside edge, and the ball goes agonizingly past the off stump.
No ball! Full-pitched delivery at the stumps, Hasan gets forward and blocks it off. Starc oversteps and a No Ball is called.
Starc just seems to have lost his radar a bit in this over. This is pushed well wide of the off stump, not quite full enough. Hasan lets it go.
And again! A bit fuller and quicker at 140.1 kph, darted down the leg side. Hasan fails to flick it away.
Served on a good length but spilled a fair bit down the leg side. Left alone by Hasan, and Alex Carey puts in a dive to his right to collect the ball.
Nice and full, shaping away a touch. Najmul Hossain Shanto pushes it wide of cover and picks up a quick single.
Loose shot from the batter. Pitched much fuller and well outside off at 134 clicks. Hasan goes for the expansive drive but fails to connect.
Full of a good length, around the fifth stump line, and there's some extra lift off the deck. Hasan shoulders arms.
Looking for two, and they get it with ease. Length ball on off and middle, Tanzid Hasan looks to block but gets an inside edge that rolls through the square leg region for a couple of runs.
A bit wider on the crease, darting it in fuller at the stumps. Hasan stays solid in defence.
Bowled from around the wicket, pitching it on a good length and angling it back in from well outside off. Left alone by Tanzid.
A bit shorter on off, slanting away. Hasan stays low and moves his head out of the way.
FOUR! Hit with authority. Starc spears in a full ball and gets the ball to move away a bit in the air, on off. Shanto clears the front leg and drills it back past the bowler with a straight bat. Bangladesh trail by 127 runs.
Starc looks for the magic ball but sprays it down leg. Shanto lets it be.
FOUR! Edged away. Starc hits the back of a length, on off. Shanto gets on his toes to fend it down but the ball moves away enough to catch the outside edge. Cameron Green flings himself to his right at gully, but the ball stays out of his reach. Starc chirps at the Bangladesh skipper but gets no response.
Shaping away in the air but it is too wide. An easy leave for Najmul.
Bangs it in short, at the helmet of the batter. Shanto ducks under it. Alex Carey gathers it with a leap to his right.
Angles in a full ball at the pads. Hasan makes use of the angle and helps it down to deep fine leg. They cross.
Nipping back into the left-hander, on a nagging length. Shanto hangs back to deal with it but the ball cuts back in to go past the inside edge and catches him on the thigh pad.
