Australia suffered a 4-1 defeat in the five-match T20I series against Bangladesh. The team collapsed to an embarrassing 62 all-out chasing 123 in the fifth match, their lowest ever T20I score. Their previous lowest was 79 all-out against England way back in 2005.
This was Australia’s first-ever series defeat to Bangladesh in any format. This was also their fifth straight T20I series defeat. Before losing to Bangladesh they lost against West Indies (1-4), New Zealand (3-2), India (2-1), and England (2-1).

Former England captain Michael Vaughan did not miss an opportunity to take a dig at Australia.
"Aussies bowled out for 62…. Time for a pint," he tweeted.
Former England women’s cricketer Isabelle Westbury said India women’s team opener Shafali Verma scored more runs in The Hundred than the combined Australian side on Monday. Shafali Verma scored an unbeaten 76 off 42 balls in the Hundred to help her side Birmingham Phoenix beat Welsh Fire by 10 wickets.
"Shafali Verma scored more runs than Australia's chaps combined today and I think you'll agree that this is a terrific outcome. Facing almost half as many balls. Ah, it just gets better," she wrote.
Broadcaster Harsha Bhogle was curious to know what Australian fans thought of this performance.
Here's how Twitter reacted to Australia's debacle:
