Josh Inglis' brilliant innings of 120*(86) helped win the match against England, the biggest run chase win in Champions Trophy history!
In a thrilling encounter at the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Australia pulled off the highest-ever successful run chase in tournament history by defeating England by five wickets. The match was highlighted by Josh Inglis's magnificent unbeaten innings of 120 runs from just 86 balls, which propelled Australia to victory.
England had set a formidable target of 352 runs, thanks largely to Ben Duckett's impressive knock of 165. However, Inglis's brilliant batting ensured that Australia surpassed this total with ease. His maiden ODI century not only secured a crucial win for his team but also marked a significant milestone in his career.
This historic chase showcased Australia's resilience and determination under Steve Smith's leadership. Despite missing key players due to injuries and retirements, they demonstrated their ability to adapt and overcome challenges. The victory sets them up well in Group B as they look forward to their next matches against South Africa and Afghanistan.
