Australia Chases Down 351 Against England in Thrilling Champions Trophy Match

Australia's Josh Inglis and Alex Carey combined to nullify Ben Duckett's historic 165, as they chased down England's 351/8 in the 48th over. This is Australia's first win in the Champions Trophy since the 2009 edition.

Key Highlights:

• Josh Inglis scored a joint-fastest 77-ball ton in the tournament's history, eclipsing Ben Duckett's epic 165.
• Inglis and Carey's 146-run stand with Matthew Short set Australia up for a 300-plus total.
• England's bowlers struggled to consolidate their performance due to dew, with Jofra Archer and Mark Wood taking key wickets.
• Australia finished the PowerPlay on course at 76/2, with Marnus Labuschagne and Matthew Short navigating their way through spin from Adil Rashid and Liam Livingstone.
• Inglis and Carey took the spinners on, taking risks against Brydon Carse and going after the England bowlers to keep Australia's scoring rate hovering at six-an-over.
• The partnership swelled quickly, with Inglis getting his fifty and Carey on course for his, before Buttler brought back Rashid to stem the flow.
• Archer returned, but his attempted variations didn't come off due to dew, and Inglis dispatched him for a couple of boundaries.
• Carse came back to break the stand, but that led to Glenn Maxwell's arrival in the 42nd over with 70 to get.
• Inglis smashed his way to his 77-ball century, while Maxwell swung his bat around for a 15-ball 32* to complete the victory with five wickets and 15 balls to spare.
