* And also betters the previous Australian ODI opening benchmark of 246 by Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh in 2013 against Scotland

* The partnership is two runs short of equalling the world record ODI opening stand of 286 by Sri Lankans Sanath Jayasuriya and Upul Tharanga in 2006 against England

* Warner's 179 is six runs shy of equalling the highest ODI score by an Australian, Shane Watson's 185no in 2011 against Bangladesh

* Warner's knock is the third-highest by an Australian in ODI cricket. Matthew Hayden's 181no against New Zealand in 2007 sits at No.2

* Warner's score is his highest in ODI cricket and the fifth time he has scored 150 or more in an ODI innings

* Warner's knock is the 20th-highest individual score in ODI history, and the highest by any batsman at Adelaide Oval
