England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss and decided to bowl against champions Australia in a World Cup group match at Lord’s on Tuesday. Australia made two changes as Nathan Lyon and Jason Behrendorff replaced Adam Zampa and Nathan Coulter-Nile in the playing XI. @AFP

England retained the same side that lost at Headingley, with fast bowler Jofra Archer passed fit after feeling some tightness in his left side. @AFP

Warner and Finch put up a partnership worth 123 but it was broken in the 23rd over when off-spinner Moeen Ali induced Warner to lob a gentle catch to Joe Root, running round from backward point. @AFP

Finch went on to score his second hundred in the ongoing World Cup. The Australian skipper brought up his hundred in 115 balls, thanks to a misfield by Chris Woakes. @AFP

However, next ball he miscued a hook off Archer and Woakes made no mistake with the catch at fine leg. He was out for exactly 100, having faced 116 balls, with 11 fours and two sixes and off Archer as the England pacer scalped his 16th wicket in the tournament. @AFP
9 /21
New batsman Glenn Maxwell hit a six and four off successive Archer deliveries only to fall for 12 when caught behind trying to ‘ramp’ Mark Wood. @AFP

Smith and Marcus Stoinis were then involved in a mix-up that saw Stoinis run out before Smith was caught in the deep off Woakes for 38. @AFP

England suffered a top-order collapse as they slumped to 26 for three chasing a target of 286. @AFP
12 /21
Jason Behrendorff struck with just the second ball of England’s reply, an inswinger bowling struggling opener James Vince for a duck. @AFP

Fellow left-arm quick Mitchell Starc then took two wickets for five runs in nine balls. @AFP
14 /21
Test skipper Joe Root was plumb lbw to an inswinger for eight before England captain Eoin Morgan (four) fell into a hooking trap when a top-edge was held safely by Pat Cummins at fine leg. @AFP

Jonny Bairstow, for example, fell next to a careless hook off Behrendorff before Stokes and Jos Buttler (25) repaired some of the damage with a fifth-wicket stand of 71. @AFP
16 /21
Buttler was well caught by Usman Khawaja, running round and staying just inside the deep square leg boundary off Marcus Stoinis. @AFP

18 /21
Starc was brought back to take a key wicket and duly obliged with a thunderbolt yorker, his 18th wicket of the tournament, that ended Stokes’s 115-ball innings of 89, including eight fours and two sixes. @AFP
19 /21
Behrendorff, who was picked in the playing XI ahead of Nathan Coulter-Nile repaid the faith shown by the team management and took 5/44 – his first five-wicket haul in ODIs. @AFP
