Saralnama

Cameron Green scored the second-fastest ODI century by an Australian, reaching 100 runs in 47 balls against South Africa on August 24, 2025, in Mackay. This century is the fastest ever against South Africa and the quickest on Australian soil in ODIs. Glenn Maxwell holds the fastest Australian ODI century record with a 40-ball hundred against the Netherlands in the 2023 World Cup. Other notable fast Australian ODI centuries include Maxwell's 51-ball hundred against Sri Lanka in 2015, James Faulkner's 57-ball century against India in 2013, and Travis Head's 59-ball century against New Zealand in 2023. In the same match, Australia posted 431 for two, their second-highest ODI total, with centuries from Travis Head (142) and Mitchell Marsh (100), leading to a 276-run victory over South Africa. This marked the first time Australia's top three batsmen all scored centuries in the same ODI innings. Spin bowler Cooper Connolly took 5 wickets for 22 runs, contributing to South Africa being bowled out for 155 in 24.5 overs. (Updated 25 Aug 2025, 13:07 IST; source: link)
