What a spectacular ton from Josh Inglis.

Got so much criticism for his poor performance in the 2023 World Cup but he's just beaming with confidence now.

In future we'll never see many Australian in "Most runs in odi" or "most centuries in odi" cuz most of them debut in their late 20s or early 30s

But we'll definitely see many match winners playing for Australia in future like Travis Head, Josh Inglis

If Josh Inglis was an Indian batter, he would've been dumped out of all Indian squads for averaging below 20 at the 2023 World Cup and people would've been outraged if he played another international game after that.
