In their first game of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Australia overcame their bitter rivals, England, by a margin of five wickets. Australia is the first side to reach 350 or more runs in the history of the ICC ODI championships. In the 2023 ODI World Cup, they surpassed Pakistan’s previous record of 345 runs, which the subcontinental squad had set against Sri Lanka.
The Men in Yellow’s match-winning hundred came from Josh Inglis. Other contributors included Alex Carey (69), Matthew Short (63), and Marnus Labuschagne (47). In 50 overs earlier, England scored 351/8. 3 sixes and 17 fours let Ben Duckett reach 165 runs. Joe Root scored 68 runs without using 78 balls.
