He equalled the most number of centuries in ODI which is 49. He is joint top with batting great Sachin Tendulkar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,999 Posted November 7, 2023 #83 Share Posted November 7, 2023 right now, instead, are not getting too many wickets (only 2) vs , but they're keeping the score of the Asian team very low (run rate below 5 after 30 overs) if don't raise their batting, it would be an easy chase for in the 2nd inning p.s. @hckošice I don't know if you're somehow following this event, but one of the best (if not the best) Australian bowler is named Adam Zampa hckošice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,999 Posted November 7, 2023 #86 Share Posted November 7, 2023 by the way, good final stint for in the 1st inning, led by an amazing century (129 out of 143 balls, not out) posted by Ibarahim Zadran finally, scored 291/5 in 50 overs, giving quite a difficult task (not that they can't complete this chase, though...let's see how the bowlers feel tonight...they need a good start to fuel their hope) and as I'm writing, what a start of 2nd inning! first ball is a 4 for , then Mujeeb almost got Warner on the 2nd ball...if they keep this pace of action, they're all dead by the 20th over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,306 Posted November 7, 2023 #87 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I'm watching this AFG/AUS match on a Afghan TV (and they are showing commercials after every single stop ) Cricket is probably the thing that everybody in Afghanistan likes, even those Taliban Neanderthals. I think they already made history by winning 4 matches but I hope they continue their dream run today and even advance to the SF. people in that country suffered (and still suffering) enough, they deserved a bit of happiness at least. phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon 1,726 Posted November 7, 2023 #88 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I still can't believe the story of cricket in Aghanistan. I think I mentioned before that the sport literally did not exist in the country until the Soviet invasion in 1979. The love for cricket was learned in refugee camps in Pakistan in the 1980s and 90s. The national team has only existed since 2001. phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon 1,726 Posted November 7, 2023 #89 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Sadly 291-5 lost to 293-7 Glenn Maxwell, who got injured early in the game, scored 201. Probably one of the best performances in any sport of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
