Dawid Malan century: On Tuesday, October 10, at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala, the 7th match of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 pits England and Bangladesh against one another. The Bangla Tigers chose to field first after winning the toss.
Cricket fans were in awe as England’s great opener Dawid Malan hammered a superb century during the first innings in a spectacular display of batting brilliance. This outstanding feat, his sixth ODI century since the 2019 World Cup, cemented his position as one of England’s top batsmen.
Malan played a nice dab shot to the right of the cover for his shining moment. The fielder dropped the ball—possibly feeling the intense pressure—and the stadium erupted in applause as Malan completed his century. Both the gifted cricketer and the England fans were in complete awe at the time.
The left-hander needed just 91 pitches to reach the milestone, but he continued bowling after breaking the century and switched to exclusively dealing in boundaries. Before being bowled by Mahedi Hasan in the 38th over, he had hit 140 runs off just 107 balls, which included 16 fours and 5 sixes.
Fans react to Dawid Malan century:
Malan has been a dependable force for the England cricket team over the past four years, and his extraordinary achievement demonstrates his commitment and talent. He has emerged as England’s top run-scorer over this time, contributing significantly in match-defining situations.
Malan’s century not only increased England’s chances of winning the ODI World Cup but also quelled criticism of the England Cricket Board for leaving Jason Roy out of the team. While the left-hander’s admirers in Dharamsala undoubtedly loved his brilliant performance, Bangladesh’s supporters, who witnessed their bowlers being battered for boundaries, would not have felt the same.
India ke sath kab h match 🥲🥲🤧🤧
