Australia vs Afghanistan highlights, Cricket World Cup 2023: Superstar Glenn Maxwell, who staged an incredible comeback for Australia, smashed a record-breaking double-century to give Pat Cummins and Co. a historic victory in Mumbai. At the renowned Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, ‘Big Show’ Maxwell saved Australia following a stunning batting collapse by the five-time champions, Azmatullah Omarzai and Naveen-ul-Haq.
Afghanistan was able to maintain control earlier when bowler Naveen removed explosive batsman Travis Head for 0(2) and shortly after trapping Mitchel Marsh LBW for 24(11). Together with the on-form pacer, Omarzai then dismissed Josh Inglis and David Warner in back-to-back deliveries, reducing Australia to 49/4 in 8.2 overs.

Pitch Report:
This is not an ideal surface to bat first. We have witnessed batting collapses right throughout this tournament in the initial phases of the game. The teams chasing have a 100 per cent win record in this tournament, and hence, whoever wins the toss should bowl first.
