Tim Cahill has scored a hat-trick in Australia's 4-0 World Cup qualifier win over Bangladesh in Dhaka.

Cahill scored three times inside 37 minutes while skipper Mile Jedinak added his own to send Australia to the top of their qualifying group ahead of main rivals Jordan, who are two points behind and play Kyrgyzstan in Bishkek early on Wednesday (AEDT).

It was all one-way traffic in favour of the Australians, who easily controlled possession despite struggling to move the ball around freely on the long-grassed surface.
