Australia Secured 14th Consecutive ODI Victory With A Dominant 68-Run Win Over England

Australia’s men’s cricket team continued their remarkable form, securing a 68-run win over England in the second ODI at Headingley, Leeds.

This victory marks Australia’s 14th consecutive win in ODI cricket, the second-longest streak in men’s ODIs, only behind their own record of 21 consecutive wins set in 2003. The streak stretches back to their 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup triumph, where they won nine matches on the trot after two early losses in the tournament.

In the match, Australia posted 270 runs, thanks to a crucial knock of 74 from Alex Carey and a resilient final-wicket partnership of 49 runs with Josh Hazlewood.

England, in response, struggled against Australia’s bowling attack, slumping to 65/5 early on before managing a total of 202.

Australia now lead the series 2-0 and will look to continue their dominance in the upcoming third ODI at Chester-le-Street, with the potential of claiming the No. 1 spot in men’s ODI rankings.
