Fast bowler Dirk Nannes took four wickets as Australia beat Bangladesh by 27 runs here at the Kensington Oval here on Wednesday to advance into the second round of the World Twenty20. Bangladesh, who needed to win this match convincingly to knock either Group A rivals Australia or Pakistan out on superior run-rate, reduced Australia to 65 for six inside 13 overs after Aussie captain Michael Clarke won the toss. But man-of-the-match Michael Hussey held firm with an unbeaten 47 and was well-supported in a seventh-wicket stand of 74 in seven overs by Steven Smith (27) as Australia finished on 141 for seven. Afghanistan once again showed fight but in the end were comfortably beaten by South Africa.[imagebrowser id=10959]
