It's interesting that Warner now has the highest innings of the tournament so far and yet still doesn't quite seem himself. Or his old self, anyway.

David Warner scored his 16th ODI century in his 110th ODI innings, only 2nd to Hashim Amla (94 inn♒s). Hashim Amla is under-rated.

Top stuꦐff from Warner. At this rate, 350 could be on and that was improbable at one stage. Will be a far tougher chase for Bangladesh than the one against the West Indies
