Australia Sets Record with Historic ODI Chase

Australia achieved a historic victory against England in the Champions Trophy 2025 by successfully chasing a record target of 352 runs at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium. Key performances included Josh Inglis's unbeaten 120 off 86 balls and a substantial partnership with Alex Carey, who scored 69, steering Australia to triumph with 15 balls to spare. England's Ben Duckett set a remarkable precedent earlier with his 165, the highest individual score in Champions Trophy history, but Australia's chase surpassed Pakistan's previous ICC event record of 345. Despite early setbacks with Travis Head and Steve Smith falling quickly, Australia managed a comeback, led by Inglis and Carey, with Glenn Maxwell contributing a quick 32. This victory not only set a new record for the highest run chase in ICC tournaments but also marked Australia's highest successful chase against England in ODIs.
