Australia are off to a magnificent start as they bring up their 50 in the eighth over. Openers David Warner and Aaron Finch are looking in excellent start, but Finch was let off early in the innings as Chris Woakes dropped a sitter at square leg. This is just the kind  Australia would have wanted. Finch has looked extremely aggressive but Warner at the other end is looking a bit out of shape. But, he’s managed to survive and will hope to carry on for many more overs to come. Live Updates: Australia vs England Pool A match at Melbourne

England bowlers have been very expensive and they will hope that they pull things back to a certain extent. England will not be happy with the start but will hope to get back in the game soon by picking up a few quick wickets. James Anderson and Stuart Broad have not looked like picking up wickets early on. Live Scorecard of  Australia vs England 2nd ODI Pool A match at Melbourne

England had earlier won the toss and elected to field first. Australia will be the more confident side going into the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 after victory in both of their warm-up matches. England on the other hand not only suffered crushing defeats at the hands of Australia in the recently concluded tri-series but also lost the last warm-up match against Pakistan.
