Head, Marsh And Green Centuries Set Up Australia’s Thumping 276-run Consolation Win
Great Barrier Reef Arena: Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh and Cameron Green powered Australia to a record-breaking batting display by hitting centuries each before Cooper Connolly’s five-wicket haul helped them seal a thumping 276-run consolation win over South Africa in the third ODI at the Great Barrier Reef Arena on Sunday.
After being dismissed for under 200 in the first two games, Australia rebounded in style with Marsh and Head adding 250 runs for the opening wicket – marking the team’s fifth highest ODI opening partnership.
Their 34-over assault, with Head making 142 and Marsh hitting exactly 100, left ample time for Green, who smashed a maiden ODI hundred off just 47 balls and the second-fastest century for Australia behind Glenn Maxwell.
