With this explosive ton, Warner has joined an elite list with Rohit Sharma, Sachin Tendulkar, Kumar Sangakkara, and Ricky Ponting in the list of players with more than four 50-over World Cup tons. He is also the only second Australian player in the list after legendary Aussie skipper Ricky Ponting.

Opener Warner (163, 124b, 14x4, 9x6) and Mitchell Marsh (121, 108b, 10x4, 9x6) stitched together a huge partnership of 259 runs before Shaheen Afridi dismissed Marsh. Australia are heading towards a huge total in the match.
