Australia's David Warner and Mitchell Marsh put on a masterclass in power-hitting against Pakistan as the five-time champions posted a daunting total of 367-9 in their World Cup group game on Friday.

Amidst the carnage by Australian batters, Shaheen Afridi emerged as the standout performer among the Pakistan bowlers, securing five wickets and concluding with impressive figures of 5-54. This outstanding feat has propelled him to equal the record for the most wickets by a fast bowler after 48 ODIs. Shaheen Afridi's tally of 95 wickets in 48 ODIs matches that of Mitchell Starc, who also achieved the same milestone in the same number of matches.

Furthermore, Shaheen Afridi has etched his name alongside cricket legend Shahid Afridi by equaling the record for the most fifers for Pakistan in World Cups. Following his stellar fifer against Australia in Bengaluru on Friday, Shaheen Afridi now boasts two fifers in World Cups, mirroring Shahid Afridi's own achievement of two fifers in the prestigious tournament.

However, amidst these individual achievements, Pakistan found themselves on the wrong side of some unwanted records. David Warner and Mitchell Marsh forged a remarkable partnership, amassing 259 runs for the first wicket, marking Australia's highest-ever opening stand in World Cup cricket. This also marked the first occasion where Pakistan conceded more than a 200-run partnership in World Cup cricket.

Furthermore, Australia set a new record by becoming the team to score the most runs in an innings against Pakistan in the history of the tournament. This achievement surpassed Sri Lanka's previous record of 344 runs earlier in the ongoing event in Hyderabad.
