Inglis has an English passport, but I'm not leaving him'!

This exciting match of 707 runs saw two centuries, five 50-plus scores and almost 98 overs of cricket! These numbers alone prove how exciting the match was. In the final excitement of the Champions Trophy, Australia defeated England's 351 runs and won by 5 wickets.

The hero of the match was Josh Inglis, whose batting was extraordinary. Commentator Mike Atherton also referred to him as 'English' several times, which his fellow commentators made fun of. Inglis ensured Australia's victory when he completed his century in 77 balls and remained unbeaten on 120 runs. In the 86-ball innings, his batting included 8 fours and 6 sixes.

At the awards ceremony, the former England captain jokingly asked Australian captain Steven Smith, “Does Josh Inglis still have his English passport?” Smith laughed and jokingly said, “I don’t know, you’ll have to ask him… but I’m not giving up on him, he’s not going anywhere.”

This comment clearly shows that Inglis is now fully Australian. In this match, Australia’s target was 352 runs, which was unprecedented in an ICC tournament to win by chasing 350 runs. Although Australia faced some difficulties at the beginning, Australia took the match with a brilliant partnership between Inglis and Alex Carey. Although Carey was dismissed for 69 runs off 63 balls, Inglis was at his best, and ensured the team’s victory with a brilliant innings.

Inglis’ contribution to Australia’s historic victory was undeniable, and through this match he established his integral place in Australian cricket.
