Andrew Symonds claimed a career-best five for 18 as Australia took their revenge by crushing Bangladesh by 10 wickets in Saturday's triangular series one-day match. The world champions, who lost to Bangladesh a week ago in one of the greatest upsets in cricket history, made a nonsense of that aberration as they dismissed their opponents for 139, then raced home with 31 overs to spare.
