TOUGH AUSTRALIANS DECIMATE RESOLUTE PAKISTANIS!

At the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore there was a run rush by the Aussies as their openers David Warner and Mitchell Marsh both hit tough tons to take Aussies to an unbeatable score of around 360 inspite of good bowling by Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi who took a load of wickets and Haris Rauf who initially went for many. But the Pakistanis in reply could score only 302 with some good batting by openers Abdullah and Imam -ul-haq. David Warner has been awarded with the ‘man of the match’ title for his blistering knock of 163 runs off 124 balls. This was Warner's fifth century in World Cup games. The inning, which was marred with some luck as Pakistan dropped two of his catches, was essential for the Aussies to place themselves in a commanding position. Spinner Adam Zampa had an outstanding night with the ball picking up four wickets for 53 runs. Australia with this win has it in them to make it to the semi finals.
