Australia vs Pakistan Highlights, Cricket World Cup 2023: Australia beat Pakistan by 62 runs

Australia vs Pakistan Highlights Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan got off to a strong start in their chase after tons from David Warner and Mitchell Marsh saw Australia post 367/9 in 50 overs in match 18 of the 2023 World Cup in Bengaluru on Friday. Openers Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq put up a 134-run opening stand, scoring half centuries in the process. Marcus Stoinis ended that stand by dismissing Shafique with his first ball of the match and later went on to get Imam out as well. Babar Azam then fell to Adam Zampa thanks to a stunner of a catch from Pat Cummins. While Mohammad Rizwan, Saud Shakeel and Iftikhar Ahmed gave Pakistan some hope, it turned out to be too much for them and they ended up being all out for 305. Pakistan have thus sunk to their second consecutive defeat and conversely, Australia now have two wins on the trot after getting off to a rather disastrous start in the tournament.

Earlier, Australia opener Warner hammered 163 runs off 124 balls, packed with 14 fours and nine sixes. Meanwhile, his opening partner Marsh clattered 121 off 108 deliveries, including 10 fours and nine sixes. Meanwhile, Shaheen Afridi led Pakistan’s late fightback in the first innings with a five-wicket haul. Haris Rauf took three wickets.
