The series was during the southern Australian winter, therefore the matches were played in northern Australia at Marrara Oval, Darwin. On slow, low, continental-like pitches, Bangladesh failed to score more than 125 in the series. Australian Shaun Marsh was the leading run-scorer for the series, with 175 runs. Australia's Mitchell Johnson finished leading wicket-taker for the series—with six wickets—ahead of teammates Cameron White and Stuart Clark. Michael Hussey was named man of the series as the Australian's dominated every facet of the series.
