In the 43rd Match of ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, Australia and Bangladesh came face to face. Australia won the toss and opted to bowl first. Even though the pitch is quite batting friendly and the square boundaries are on the shorter side, Bangladesh has scored more than 300 runs for the first time in the tournament. This is undoubtedly their finest batting performance in CWC23. They had a decent start thanks to the openers, who added 76 at a faster pace than run-a-ball. Several important Bangladeshi batsmen got off to starts, but only Hridoy managed to reach the 50-run mark. They also caused themselves some trouble with some foolish running and shots, and Labuschagne helped to ruin the starts of Nazmul Shanto and Mahmudullah with two crucial run-outs. After that, Abbott and Stoinis worked effectively together in the final four overs, although Bangladesh still had runs scored.

 Despite Travis Head's cheap fall, Warner and Marsh were determined not to let this gorgeous batting deck pass them by. The former opening duo put up a 120-run partnership for the second wicket, and Warner's wicket came from a chain of events that Bangladesh created before he was removed. Steve Smith proceeded as normal, letting Marsh pursue his natural course. In addition to recording his highest ODI score, Mitch Marsh did not get out, which would have pleased many of his most ardent detractors. It was very much a clinic. The confidence on the front foot, playing through the line, aiming for the short square boundaries, and enjoying a good ball sweep.

 Overall, Mitch Marsh made batting appear really simple and fluid. This surface appeared to be a batting belter from the first. Bangladesh might not have presented Australia with such a difficult chase even if they had scored more over 400. The surface was really that excellent. This is also the most successful run chase in Australia's World Cup history. Despite a shaky start to their campaign, Australia has won seven straight games to go to the semifinals. Whether it was the Big Show's singular genius or Zampa's enchanted spinning web, they managed to make it happen. That's what Australia does in international competitions, correct? The 1999 semifinal match between Australia and South Africa will then be repeated. How many of you still recall the well-known Birmingham game? It would be an unbelievable joy if we could replicate even a fraction of the excitement and spills of that meeting. We've officially arrived at the last gasp.
