    Champions Trophy: Inglis Overshadows Duckett As Australia Chase 352 For Record Win (ld)

    By IANS News February 22, 2025 • 23:32 PM View: 846
    Josh Inglis: Wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis overshadowed a superb Ben Duckett hundred by hitting a sublime maiden ODI century and helped Australia pull off an epic chase of 352 in 47.3 overs to beat England by five wickets in a run-fest Group B match of the 2025 Champions Trophy at the Gaddafi Stadium here on Saturday.

    The chase of 352 looked uphill after England reached 351/8 in their 50 overs, thanks to Duckett’s magnificent 165, which is now the highest individual score in the history of the Champions Trophy. But Australia had the quiet confidence of chasing down the total, owing to the stadium’s nature of batting becoming better under lights, thanks to dew.

    Inglis, born in Yorkshire and brought up in Australia, proved that theory right through his unbeaten 120 off 86 balls, laced with eight fours and six sixes, impressing everyone with his lofted shots and backfoot play as 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 games in Lahore.
