The first session of the third day in the second and final test between Bangladesh and Australia has been washed out on Wednesday due to incessant rain.

Australia, who were beaten inside four days in the first test in Dhaka, will resume on 225 for two, still 80 behind the hosts’ first innings total of 305 at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong, reports Reuters.

David Warner will resume on 88 with Peter Handscomb on 69, the blossoming third wicket partnership already worth 127 runs.
