ODI World Cup: Former captain Mark Taylor believes Mitchell Marsh's sticking with a hard-hitting style of batting paved the way for the fast-bowling all-rounder's sensational career-best knock of 177 and lead Australia to a thumping eight-wicket win over Bangladesh in 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup.

At the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) Stadium in Pune on Saturday, Marsh hit 26 boundaries for making 177 not out off 132 balls to chase down 307 in 45 overs and help Australia secure their seventh straight victory of the tournament.

The five-time champion will now face South Africa in the second semifinal at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday.
