How to plot date and time data on the same axis?

I have an excel file that has a column for date, time and pollution levels. I want to plot the date AND time on the x-axis and the pollution levels on the y-axis, but I do not know how to combine the two columns in matlab or how to then properly put these on the x-axis. Any help would be much appreciated. Please see attached excel file that I am using. Thanks,

Which MATLAB release? It makes a difference for how easy it is to handle the times.
R2018a is the MATLAB version that I'm using.

filename = 'brisbanecbd-aq-2010.csv';
data = readtable(filename);
x = data{:,3};
pm10 = data{:,8};
plot(x, pm10);
