“A nice one to have on the resume, but anything that helps the team get a win is the main thing, so really happy,” Malajczuk admitted post-game.
It hasn’t taken long for Australia to showcase their batting stocks’ immense class and depth, which holds them in good stead to make another deep World Cup run.
Malajczuk, particularly, thrived in the Namibian conditions.
“Credit to the Japanese bowlers, they bowled really well and I think the pitch helped the way I like that bat, it was really nice and came on good. It slightly got slower as the game went on, but other than that it was a really nice wicket to bat on,” he continued.
