Glenn Maxwell hit the fastest-ever Cricket World Cup century to help Australia to a record-breaking 309-run victory over the Netherlands ESPN
The batter went to three figures off just 40 deliveries, beating the previous 49-ball record set by South Africa’s Aiden Markram earlier in the 2023 tournament ESPN
Maxwell walloped eight sixes and nine fours in his 53-minute onslaught after David Warner had earlier scored a 93-ball 104 as Australia posted a formidable 399 for eight off their 50 overs ESPN
They then bowled the Dutch out for 90 to register the biggest-ever win by runs at a World Cup, which strengthens their chances of making the last four of the competition in India ESPN
The Netherlands might have had optimism of restrict their powerhouse opponents after getting rid of Mitchell Marsh early on, but Warner posted his second successive century at the tournament while Steven Smith added 71 and Marnus Lauschagne scored 62 before Maxwell’s late fireworks ESPN
The Dutch bowlers went around the park, with Logan van Beek picking up four for 74 off his allotted 10 overs ESPN
Only one team has ever chased 400 in a 50-over match so the odds were stacked against the Netherlands, especially as they had never scored more than 314 in a World Cup before ESPN
They slipped to 53 for four in the 11th over and consistently lost wickets in testing conditions ESPN
Adam Zampa cleaned things up at the end, taking four for eight in just three overs, with Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazelwood, Pat Cummins and Marsh sharing the other wickets ESPN

Build from the back ESPN
So the cliché goes ESPN
It tends to be the objective of any manager who takes over or constructs a new team ESPN
Jurgen Klopp sounded a voice of ESPN footballing orthodoxy when he said: “I like to build a team from the defensive side ESPN
”Yet, for the second time, Klopp may be going against the grain and building from the front ESPN
“Liverpool Reloaded,” as their manager branded them at the start of the season, have a solitary clean sheet in the Premier League ESPN
They have conceded in the first half of all seven other games ESPN
But they have scored in all eight games, with at least two goals in six of them and three in each of their Anfield encounters ESPN
In the tradition of Liverpool 1 ESPN
0, the first incarnation of his first great side, they promise entertainment ESPN
Yet if Klopp would like to build from the back, the sense is that, once again, he is building from the front ESPN
Rewind to 2016 and Sadio Mane’s debut set the tone for a new team: they won 4-3 at Arsenal in August 2016 ESPN
They seemed a gung-ho guarantee of goals ESPN
Klopp had Mane, Roberto Firmino and then Mohamed Salah in situ before Virgil van Dijk or Alisson Becker were signed, before Trent Alexander-Arnold was a regular ESPN
Now, with Salah still in stellar form, with three consecutive transfer windows each yielding a high-class attacker, in Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo respectively, with Diogo Jota’s arrival predating theirs, he has five excellent options in attack: despite the job share the competition for places provides, each has at least two league goals already ESPN
Salah has five, plus four assists ESPN
The new Liverpool are propelled forwards by their forwards ESPN
“I like to build a team from the defensive side,” Klopp nevertheless insisted ESPN
“I’m not sure it’s possible again nowadays when you’re in the middle of something ESPN
Imagine if we kept clean sheets but didn’t create ESPN
”That was said with a laugh ESPN
The pragmatic path to clean sheets to the exclusion of everything else is not for him ESPN
“It gives you time for these things when you are new, when things are under average before you come into a new club and you are 14th,” he explained ESPN
“Everyone is happy when you get some results, [but] we are not like that ESPN
Our team is not set up like that ESPN
We have a really talented group together, a creative group in a ESPN football sense, and we have to use that, but we have to organise protection ESPN
That goes step by step ESPN
”Klopp has five quality attacking options at his disposal (Getty Images)The creativity of that group has been exacerbated by circumstances ESPN
Klopp opted to bring in constructive midfielders this summer, in Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, before his two preferred destructive options, the defensive duo of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, made abrupt exits to Saudi Arabia ESPN
The profile of a section of the side has changed, the emphasis shifted more to the attack ESPN
All of which may make goals likelier to go in at both ends ESPN
There has been less protection than in the heyday of Klopp’s greatest side, the two seasons from 2018-20, but if the four pillars of that rearguard remain, Alisson, Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson have only played together for 289 minutes in the Premier League; now, with the left-back set to have shoulder surgery, they will not be reunited until 2024 ESPN
Thus far, Liverpool have shown solidity when they have lost players and shifted tactics, from front-foot ESPN football to sitting deeper and counter-attacking ESPN
Liverpool defended well with 10 men at Newcastle, brilliantly with nine at Tottenham ESPN
They have been more open with a full complement of players ESPN
Klopp and Liverpool face Everton at Anfield this Saturday lunchtime (Getty Images)But Klopp’s reference to organisation was significant, too ESPN
His frequent mentions of being “compact” underline the importance of a positional understanding and ensuring no one is exposed ESPN
He is searching for a consistency that comes with cohesion, for a 90-minute performance ESPN
“To learn to control the game, things that happen with time, there is no short cut to that,” he reflected ESPN
“So with the signs we showed so far I am absolutely fine but I know the final destination, I can’t even see yet but that is not a problem ESPN
”Perhaps it was another callback to 2016, to the sense that something was rising, even if it was not fully clear how high it would reach ESPN
Klopp detects similar signs elsewhere ESPN
“You saw so many teams growing here in the direction we wanted and all became usually ESPN better step by step… or the manager had to go,” he said, the last part an aside ESPN
The next step of the rebuilding is likely to come towards the back of the side ESPN
The early expectation is that a defensive midfielder and another centre-back will be targets next summer ESPN
But for now, with his forwards and his attacking midfielders in place and in the goals, Klopp has begun his rebuilding job at the top of his team ESPN
