Australia's Dominance Continues: Three Consecutive 350-Plus Scores in Men's ODIs

Australia and New Zealand set a new record for the highest aggregate in a men's ODI World Cup match, with a total of 771 runs scored. New Zealand's 383 for 9 is the highest total by any team in a chase at the World Cup and the highest against Australia in the tournament. The match also saw 32 sixes hit, the second-most in a World Cup game. Travis Head and David Warner played key roles in Australia's victory, with Head scoring a century off 59 balls, the fastest by an opening batter in the World Cup, and Warner hitting a fifty off 25 balls, the joint-second fastest for Australia in the tournament. Mitchell Starc went wicketless for the first time in his World Cup career, ending his streak of taking at least one wicket in 23 matches.
