The 18th match of the ODI World Cup 2023 witnessed an electrifying start to the play as Australia’s openers unleashed carnage on the Pakistan bowling unit. The game saw Aussie batters David Warner and Mitchell Marsh notch up brilliant ce⭕nturies🌜 at M. Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru and sending Twitter into a frenzy.

The thrilling and breathtaking display of power hitting by the Australian duo even marked just the fourth instance in World Cup history when both openers registered hundreds, creating waves of excitemen🐽t in the cricketing world.

Massive partnership and a great start to Australia’s innings

Asked to bat first by Pakistan, Australia’s innings witnessed Warner (163) and Marsh (121) orchestrate a remarkable partnership that lit up the Bengaluru stadium. They were not just content with mere fifties but went on to score centuries, firmly asserting their dominance over Pakistan’s bowlers and powering Australia to a mammoth total of 3ꦐ67/9 in their💟 allotted 50 overs. This stellar performance was a testament to their skill, determination, and ability to thrive under immense pressure. Both openers showcased their class and grace while pulverizing the opposition’s bowling attack.

Nevertheless, the Pakistan bowlers did manage to make a comeback towards the end by putting a stop to the Aussie onslaught, with Shaheen Afridi bagging a brilliant fifer and Haris Rauf picking three wickets.

Century on birthday

What made this century from Marsh even more special was the fact that he achieved it on his birthday. This added a layer of sentimentality to the already significant feat. Marsh became only the second player in World Cup history to score a century on his birthday, joining the likes of Ross Taylor, who had achieved this milestone in 2011 with an unbeaten 131🌳 against Pakist🍃an in Pallekele.
