MIRPUR, Bangladesh \u2014 Opener Cooper Connolly hit his maiden century as Australia overcame a six-wicket haul by pacer Shoriful Islam for a hard-fought one-wicket victory against Bangladesh in the third cricket<\/a> one-day international to avoid a clean sweep on Sunday.<\/p>

The hosts won the first match by 86 runs<\/a> and the second game<\/a> by five wickets, both on the DLS method, to register their first ODI series victory against Australia.<\/p>\n

Chasing a target of 275, Connolly batted resolutely to hit 149 off 134 balls as Australia appeared set for a victory with ease.<\/p>\n

Connolly struck 13 fours and six sixes, including three sixes in a row against pacer Taskin Ahmed in the 45th over, an over in which he scored 21 runs to leave the side needing just 9 runs off 30 balls.<\/p>\n

Shoriful returned for his last spell and took three wickets in two overs to finish with a career-best 6-48, briefly raising the prospect of a Bangladesh victory.<\/p>\n

But Connolly anchored the innings throughout to bail the side out against a vaunted Bangladesh attack after captain Josh Inglis struck a 12-ball 21 to give the side a fluent start.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was tough towards the end. I felt like my whole body was in shock and not wanting to move, but it was nice to play a role in a win for Australia,\u201d Connolly said. \u201cI was a little bit nervous, but I was backing Zampa and Riley (Meredith) to get us over the line. It\u2019s nice to have a win.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shoriful helped Bangladesh claw its way back, dismissing Inglis and Matt Renshaw in consecutive deliveries before Connolly shared three 60-plus partnerships to lay the platform for the victory.<\/p>\n

He added 64 with Marnus Labuschagne (29), 68 with Cameron Green (27) and 64 with Oliver Peake (27) to edge the side closer to victory.<\/p>\n

Australia then lost four wickets for five runs before Zampa sealed the victory with a boundary.<\/p>

Earlier, Bangladesh started strongly with three half-centuries from Towhid Hridoy, Litton Das and Mosaddek Hossain to post 274-5.<\/p>\n

Hridoy was the top-scorer with 83 while Das made an unbeaten 58, his first fifty-plus knock at Mirpur Stadium in 28 ODI innings.<\/p>\n

Mosaddek, who scripted Bangladesh\u2019s 86-run victory in the first match with 80 not out on his return to the national team after four years, finished on 56 not out.<\/p>\n

Najmul Hossain Shanto, leading the side in the absence of Mehidy Hasan, who was hit by a bouncer from Nathan Ellis in the second ODI, won the toss and elected to bat first.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think 275 was a brilliant score. The way Hridoy and Mosaddek batted, I was really happy to see,\u201d Shanto said. \u201cBut if you look at our spin in the middle overs, we didn\u2019t get enough wickets, so that cost us the match.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pacer Xavier Bartlett removed Soumya Sarkar for a duck with the fourth ball of the innings before Renshaw, who took 2-44, sent back Shanto and Tanzid Hassan in quick succession, leaving Bangladesh on 61-3.<\/p>\n

Hridoy shared 92 runs with Litton, who had to retire after a muscle cramp on 48, and then added 93 with Mosaddek.<\/p>\n

Liton returned later to give Bangladesh late impetus as the team managed to post a competitive total.<\/p>
