Afghanistan put 291 runs on the board against Australia

In the 39th match of the ICC World Cup 2023, Afghanistan, batting first, put 291/5 against Australia.

Ibrahim Zadran was the star with the bat, as the 21-year-old became the first Afghani batter to score a century in a World Cup match.

Zadran amassed 129 (143), which featured eight fours and three sixes.

Rashid Khan provided power hitting towards the end and scored 35 (18), which featured 3 sixes and 2 fours.

Josh Hazlewood was the pick of the bowlers for Australia with two wickets in his nine overs.

The Aussies need to produce their highest run-chase in World Cup history to win this match.
