'I am so happy about my century' - Sobhana Mostary after record-breaking knock against Australia in Brisbane

Sobhana Mostary crafted a historic 118 runs from 134 deliveries during the second women's ODI against Australia, marking the first time a female batter from Bangladesh reached a hundred against this opponent. Walking to the crease after her side slumped to 8 for 3 during the eighth over, she combined with captain Nigar Sultana for a 195-run partnership that established a new national record for any wicket in the format.

Sultana contributed an unbeaten 74 runs from 114 balls before Mostary was dismissed by Megan Schutt. Despite the milestone performance, Bangladesh suffered a nine-wicket defeat as Australia chased down the target behind Georgia Voll's unbeaten knock of 131, securing an unassailable two-nil lead in the series.
