Josh Hazlewood to Jonny Bairstow
OUT! TAKEN! Jonny Bairstow's struggling stay comes to an end and Australians celebrate! Josh Hazlewood breaks a budding partnership just at the right time. Short in length, skids through on top of off, Jonny Bairstow goes for a pull shot but loses his shape and the ball slices off the willow, high up in the air straight towards Glenn Maxwell stationed at deep mid-wicket who takes a very simple catch running forward.

Pat Cummins to Moeen Ali
OUT! TAKEN! Top catch in the deep from David Warner and Australia have executed the plan to perfection. Full and wide from Pat Cummins, bowled from around the stumps and forcing the batter to hit to the longer side of the ground. Moeen Ali walks across to the off side and slashes it away up and over backward point. Warner looses the ball in the sun a bit but does well to settle himself and reverse-cup it nicely.

Josh Hazlewood to Harry Brook
Trying everything here Harry Brook but England aren't even getting a single boundary here. Into the pitch again and outside off, Brook walks across and picks it up well over backward square leg but there's a fielder in the deep and it will just be another single.

Adam Zampa to Liam Livingstone
SIX! High and handsome but a little too late it seems. A boundary after 21 balls in a chase of over 200 and that's just not going to do it for England. Floated full and it is the googly on leg stump, Liam Livingstone steps out and whacks it a long way over the long on fence and the ball seems to be lost.

Marcus Stoinis to Harry Brook
FOUR! That's it, Australia have taken the bragging rights in this big rivalry match up! Bowled a bit quicker and dug in on a hard length outside the off stump. Harry Brook swings across the line but gets a thick outside edge that flies over short third man for a boundary but it doesn't matter. Australia win by 36 runs!
