Australia Stuns England with Record-Breaking Champions Trophy Chase
Josh Inglis's maiden ODI century leads Australia to a historic 356-run chase, overshadowing Ben Duckett's record-breaking 165 for England.
- Australia achieved the highest-ever successful chase in ICC ODI tournament history, scoring 356-5 in 47.3 overs to defeat England in Lahore.
- Josh Inglis smashed an unbeaten 120 off 86 balls, including eight fours and six sixes, to anchor Australia's five-wicket victory.
- Ben Duckett's 165 off 143 balls set a new individual record for the Champions Trophy and helped England post a tournament-high 351-8.
- England's bowlers initially reduced Australia to 136-4, but a 146-run partnership between Inglis and Alex Carey (69) turned the tide.
- The loss marks England's 17th defeat in their last 24 ODIs, leaving them needing wins against Afghanistan and South Africa to keep their semi-final hopes alive.
