<p>

England opener Jason Roy showcased an absolute masterclass on how to chase a total as he brought up his 4th ODI ton and 1st against Australia.

The 27-year-old entered the record books as he scored 180 off 151 balls eclipsing Alex Hales' 171 to register the highest score by an Englishman in ODI cricket.

Playing his 49th ODI, Roy was at his imperious best as he punished Australian bowlers with five sixes and 16 fours.

Roy's match-winning knock is also the highest ODI score ever made at the MCG as the previous record was held by Mark Waugh, who made 173 against the West Indies.
