Australia have registered the highest successful run chase in the history of the ICC Champions Trophy! This also is the highest run chase in ICC men's ODI tournaments!  What a performance it has been as Aussies take down England in what has been a magnificent game in Lahore. Ben Duckett's century helped England score 351/8, the highest total in Champions Trophy history. Ben Duckett stood out with 165, the highest individual score in the Champions Trophy. Josh Inglis smashed 120* off just 86 balls while Glenn Maxwell struck 32 off just 15 deliveries. The bowlers had an off-day as the batsmen made the most of what was a very good track to bat on. Australia, without some of their star players, have made a strong statement and made it clear that they are not to be taken lightly at any cost. This was also the first time since 2009 that Australia have won a match at the ICC Champions Trophy! England on the other hand, would be gutted to not have been able to defend this total. They will now need to win their next two games in order to remain alive in the hunt to make it to the semi-finals.

HUNDRED for Josh Inglis! The right-hander has set the stage on fire with an excellent innings and it is the first time he has gotten to the 100-run mark in ODIs, off just 77 balls. Josh Inglis has played a blinder and he will now look to finish the game off for Australia here.

Glenn Maxwell and especially Josh Inglis are leading the charge for Australia and in some manner here!

OUT! Brydon Carse has taken the big wicket of Alex Carey and what a moment it is, in this match! The left-hander found Jos Buttler after mistiming his shot and England have bounced back right when it looked like Australia were running away with this. A big 146-run partnership comes to an end and England stil are in this! Alex Carey c Jos Buttler b Brydon Carse 69(63)

22 Feb, 21:49 (IST)

Josh Inglis and Alex Carey both have hit half-centuries now and the two batters are looking very comfortable out in the middle. They have made the most of the batting-friendly conditions and at this rate, will win this for Australia. Alex Carey was earlier dropped by Jofra Archer and this might as well be the turning point in this match. Australia need 87 runs off 60 deliveries.

22 Feb, 21:30 (IST)

The partnership between Alex Carey and Josh Inglis has led Australia well in this run chase. The two have put together more than 100 runs and they'll know that the job is far from over. Josh Inglis earlier got to his half-century and is looking set for a big score here. England on the other hand, are in the hunt for quick wickets as the match heads for a tense finish.

We are at the halfway mark in this run chase and Australia are 146/4. Josh Inglis and Alex Carey have joined forces for Australia in this innings and with England on top, these two will look to build a partnership first and set the stage for the likes of Glenn Maxwell who is to follow.

OUT! Liam Livingstone has struck and he has taken the big wicket of Matthew Short! The right-hander, who has batted so well so far, has struck the tossed-up delivery straight to Liam Livingstone who ended up taking a good catch. Australia are four down now and need a partnership. Matthew Short c and b Liam Livingstone 63(66)

22 Feb, 20:20 (IST)

OUT! Adil Rashid has provided England with the much-needed breakthrough as Marnus Labuschagne departs. The right-hander played an uppish shot through cover and Jos Buttler did well to take the catch. Marnus Labuschagne c Jos Buttler b Adil Rashid 47(45)
