World Cup 2023: The 2023 World Cup tournament hosted by India has seen 9 days pass, during which some teams have faced off once, and others have had the opportunity to play each other twice.
This year, the cricketing world has been treated to exceptional performances by both young and seasoned players, resulting in records being rewritten and redefined with each passing game. In a striking turn of events, half-century innings have become a common sight in every match on this grand stage.
Moreover, for the first time in years, the tournament has been graced with lightning-fast centuries, ushering in a deluge of boundaries and sixes in these monumental innings.
In the first-round ODI World Cup 2023 clash between England and New Zealand, it was New Zealand’s star batsmen, Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra, who stole the spotlight.
Their exceptional centuries have placed them at the top of the list of highest run-scorers in the tournament. Devon Conway, with a remarkable 152 runs to his name, and Kiwi batsman Rachin Ravindra, of Indian descent, who scored 123 runs, played pivotal roles in New Zealand’s victory over England during their inaugural ODI World Cup 2023 encounter.
Rohit Sharma scored 131 runs in just 84 balls and his team overcame Afghanistan’s total of 272 runs and eventually won with 90 balls to spare.
