Australia

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Aaron Finchc Jonny Bairstow b Moeen Ali 107 119 10 3 89.92
35.2
M Ali to A Finch, OUT! Finch departs after a terrific knock! Gets a standing ovation as well. Fullish delivery around off, Finch clears his front leg and goes for the heave but ends up mistiming it. The ball swirls in the sky towards deep mid-wicket. Jonny Bairstow in the deep is safe as a house. He runs in, judges it nicely and pouches it with ease. Can the Englishmen capitalize upon it?
David Warnerc Joe Root b Mark Wood 2 5 0 0 40
1.5
M Wood to D Warner, OUT! Wood bounces out Warner! England draw first blood. What a delivery! Wood from over the wicket bangs in a short one on middle and off, it keeps climbing on Warner who is in no position to tackle this. He takes his eyes off in an attempt to fend it. The ball takes the gloves and lobs behind. Root from second slip comes a couple of steps ahead and takes a safe catch. David Warner walks back without troubling the scorers much.
Steven Smith (C)c Jos Buttler b Adil Rashid 23 18 3 0 127.78
10.5
A Rashid to S Smith, OUT! Nicked and taken! Steven Smith is out of here! What a big, big wicket this. Adil Rashid comes into the attack and strikes immediately. He bowls the googly outside off, Smith stays back to force it through the line but this one turns back in, takes the inside edge and Buttler at first fumbles but then does well to gather it in the second. Smith didn't even wait for the umpire to raise his finger, he started to walk back. Just when Australia were getting a move on, England break the stand.
Travis Headb Liam Plunkett 5 8 1 0 62.5
13.6
L Plunkett to T Head, OUT! Head chops it on! Liam Plunkett strikes! He is all pumped up as well. He slants it away on a length and outside off, Head stays leg side of the ball and tries to hit it through the line but maybe, the slowness on the surface gets the better of him. Ekes out an inside edge which goes on the bounce to disturb the stumps behind. Australia are in a bit of bother now.
Mitchell Marshb Adil Rashid 50 68 2 2 73.53
37.2
A Rashid to M Marsh, OUT! Bowled 'em! Smart piece of bowling from Rashid brings in the breakthrough. He bowls a quicker one on middle and leg, Marsh fails to read it as he plays for the leg spin but misses to get his stumps rattled. Big wicket for England as Marsh can really flourish at the fag end of the innings. Good passage of play for the visitors.
Marcus Stoinisc Joe Root b Chris Woakes 60 40 5 2 150
47.1
C Woakes to M Stoinis, OUT! Mistimed hit and Root takes it! He claims the catch and it's good to see the batsman trusting him. Marcus Stoinis walks back after a breezy knock! Back of a length delivery on middle and off, Stoinis makes room to hit it down the ground. Gets it off the high portion of the bat and the ball almost dips in front of Root who does well to dive forward at mid off and takes it inches above the ground. First wicket for Woakes!
Tim Paine (W)c Moeen Ali b Liam Plunkett 27 31 3 0 87.1
49.2
L Plunkett to Tim Paine, OUT! Good take in the deep by Moeen Ali! Short of a length delivery, this time Paine hits it well. Seemed like it would travel over the fence but Ali at deep square leg swiftly moves to his right and remains cool to take it near the ropes.
Pat Cumminsc Jason Roy b Liam Plunkett 12 10 1 0 120
49.5
L Plunkett to Pat Cummins, OUT! Second wicket in the over! This is turning out to be an amazing last over from Plunkett! Good length ball on middle and leg, Cummins lofts it down the ground but doesn't get enough behind it. Jason Roy at long on comes a couple of steps in to take a safe catch.

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Jason Royc sub b Mitchell Starc 180 151 16 5 119.21
42.3
M Starc to J Roy, OUT! No 200 for Jason Roy. He holes out at fine leg. Short ball outside off, Jason looks to finish this game quickly and goes for the pull shot. But he gets a top edge to it and the ball flies to the fine leg fielder. Jhye Richardson, the substitute, takes a safe catch. He departs to a big applause from the crowd. Take a bow, mate. Well played. Job well done.
Jonny Bairstow (W)c Tim Paine b Mitchell Starc 14 11 2 0 127.27
4.4
M Starc to J Bairstow, OUT! A much-needed breakthrough for the hosts! Runs were coming thick and fast for England and they will hope that this wicket puts a lid on the scoring rate. Back of a length outside off, a bit of extra bounce on that. Bairstow rises on his toes to cut it but ends up getting an edge behind. Paine moves to his right and accepts it gleefully. A swashbuckling stand for the visitors nonetheless. They have got the momentum.
Alex Halesc Marcus Stoinis b Pat Cummins 4 3 1 0 133.33
5.5
Pat Cummins to A Hales, OUT! Got him, gone! The short ball ploy from Cummins works wonders for his team. Steams in and hits the deck hard. Generates appreciable bounce as Hales attempts the big pull across the line. Ends up getting it off the toe end of the bat and the ball balloons towards mid on. Stoinis runs in a few steps and pouches it safely. Australia are fighting back at the right moment.
Joe Rootnot out 91 110 5 0 82.73
Eoin Morgan (C)c Steven Smith b Pat Cummins 1 4 0 0 25
44.4
Pat Cummins to E Morgan, OUT! Bang, straight to point! Cummins serves it short and wide outside off, Eoin tries to smash it square of the wicket on the off side, makes proper connection as well but fails to get the placement right. It's hit straight towards his counterpart at point and Steven Smith doesn't miss those. A wicket too late for Australia!
Jos Buttlerc Mitchell Starc b Marcus Stoinis 4 10 0 0 40
47.5
M Stoinis to Jos Buttler, OUT! Short ball on leg and Buttler pulls this away. He is not in control of it and the ball goes straight to the fine leg fielder, Starc, who takes it with a cup. England losing wickets at the tail end but will not cause them much damage.
