Steve Smith Equals Joe Root Record During Australia Test Struggles

Cricket is a game where two teams score runs and try to get each other's players out.

Australia and Bangladesh are playing a special kind of cricket match called a Test, which can last up to five days.

This match is the first of a two-match series between the two countries.

The game is happening at TIO Stadium in Darwin, Australia.

Bangladesh has been playing brilliantly.

They are now only six wickets away from winning a Test match in Australia, which would be a historic achievement.

Steve Smith is a famous Australian cricket player.

In this match, he matched a world record that belongs to Joe Root.

Even though his whole team has struggled, Smith has looked very solid and confident.

A win for Bangladesh would be very special for them.
