    Champions Trophy: It Was Always Going To Be Better Batting Second, Says Inglis After Australia’s Win

    Josh Inglis: Wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis, the hero in Australia’s record run chase of 352 which helped them beat England by five wickets with a sublime 120, said the team knew conditions at the Gaddafi Stadium would be better in the second half of the match.

    Inglis, born in Yorkshire and brought up in Australia, hit an unbeaten 120 off 86 balls, laced with eight fours and six sixes, to help Australia complete the chase with 15 balls to spare and win a crucial Group B game. Australia now hold the record for the highest successful chase in the history of ICC Men's ODI tournaments, as well as in a men’s ODI game in Lahore.

    At one point, Australia were in trouble at 136/4, before Inglis and Carey put on a match-winning fifth-wicket stand of 146 runs in 116 balls to eventually reach home with ease. "Over the moon, great win. 350, a lot of things have got to go right to chase that down. Really pumped on a personal level and for the guys out there. It was a great performance. Not too much talk at half-time, we'd done a lot of talking before the game.”
