ICC World Cup 2019 Australia vs West Indies: Best pictures of the match

"Never write off the Aussies," said former Australian fast bowler Jason Gillespie about the Australian cricket team at a time when they were going through a terrible crisis. The team was losing matches in a cluster, and to compound the problem, the Aussies dropped to sixth position in the ICC ODI rankings, their worst in three decades. Jason's warning amid the rubble of disaster was not a sign of conceit. Rather, the prediction was made based on the one true nature of Australian cricket - their unyielding determination and immense fighting spirit, something that has defined their approach to cricket over the years. West Indies, unfortunately, was at the receiving end of that famous gusto. They reduced Australia to 38/4, but could not finish the job. Australia staged a near impossible comeback against the marauding West Indian fast bowlers. Steve Smith (73), Alex Carey (45), and Nathan Coulter-Nile with an outstanding 92 ensured that Australia would reach a fighting total of 288. In the end, it proved to be enough as the Australian bowling led by Mitchell Starc (5 for 46) thwarted West Indies and kept them to 273. The match will also be remembered for some controversial umpiring decisions, with Michael Holding branding them as "atrocious". Here are some memorable moments from the match:

ICC World Cup 2019 BAN vs NZ: Best pictures of the match

It was a match that fans will cherish for years to come. New Zealand fans will relive the moments with the anxiety and pressure that haunted them during the match, and their Bangladeshi counterparts will remember the "so near, yet so far" scenario.Opting to field, New Zealand restricted Bangladesh to 244, a total that seemed to be easily chaseable. But Bangladesh had other ideas. They bowled with a lot of gusto and courage, with Shakib Al Hasan leading the charge. He quickly picked up the wickets of both openers Martin Guptill and Colin Munro.And just when the floodgate was about to open, Mushfiqur Rahim committed a massive blunder. Kane Williamson could have been run out easily, but Rahim dislodged the bails before gathering the ball. Williamson got a reprieve with a stroke of luck.From thereon, he and Ross Taylor forged a partnership to frustrate the opposition. Bangladesh managed to pull things back by taking wickets at regular intervals, but in the end, Mitchell Santner held his nerve to steer his team to a memorable two-wicket victory. Here are some memorable moments of the match:

ICC World Cup 2019 India vs South Africa: Best pictures of the match

"They came last, they came strong" - it's a statement that can be used to describe this match. India entered the tournament late, like they were backbenchers in class. They, however, produced a performance that's bound to sound a warning to the other teams - India means business. Their bowlers made the South African batsmen hobble. The scintillating performances of Bumrah and Chahal showed why this bowling attack is hailed as India's best in ODI history. While chasing, Rohit Sharma showed his mettle as a big tournament player as he kept the scoreboard ticking along with MS Dhoni. Rohit's innings of 122* off 144 balls has been described by Virat Kohli as his finest ever. In the end, India sealed a comfortable win with six wickets in hand. South Africa suffered their third consecutive loss and will find it hard to recover from this horrendous start to their campaign.

Sri Lanka finally managed to win a match, though in a rather unconvincing fashion. Their 34-run win over Afghanistan was marred by rain that forced the use of the DLS method, and of course their own disastrous batting performance. From 92/0, they stumbled to 178/7 before finally reaching 201. Their bowlers saved the day by putting up a valiant display, led by the experienced Lasith Malinga and Nuwan Pradeep to restrict Afghanistan to 152. The win gave them valuable two points to kick-start their campaign. Here are some memorable moments from the match:
