David Warner and Mitchell Marsh starred for Australia in their fourth game of the Cricket World Cup, leading their team to a 62-run victory over Pakistan. Warner’s unbeaten 163 off 124 balls and Marsh’s career-best 121 off 108 balls powered Australia to an imposing total of 367-9. Pakistan struggled to contain Warner and Marsh after dropping Warner on 10. Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf made a strong comeback in the last 10 overs, but Australia had already accumulated enough runs. Despite a valiant effort from Imam-ul-Haq and Abdullah Shafique, Pakistan fell short and were bowled out for 305. Adam Zampa’s 4-53, including the key wicket of top-ranked ODI batter Babar Azam, further contributed to Australia’s victory. Warner and Marsh’s 259-run opening partnership was instrumental in securing the win. With this victory, Australia occupies the fourth spot in the World Cup standings, while Pakistan slips out of the top four.
