Good death bowling by England. Seems Aus helped with a few to many wides being bowled.

To much for Aus to do in the final over. A great effort by England considering the injury to plunkett.

A series win after the heavy Ashes loss perhaps emphasises the England hierarchy’s pursuit of ODI excellence.

Well played anyway.

Difficult to call on the replays but KP seemed convinced it wasn't out.



The umpire giving the soft dismissal out which meant that the 3rd umpire had to have convincing evidence that the ball touched the ground.

Tough call on the batsman because there was enough evidence to suggest their was doubt. Certainly if the umpire gave it not out and England went to the third umpire it would have stayed not out.

It seemed the umpire was not sure that it carried, but still gave it out.



Not a fan of soft dismissals in these situations. If the catch doesn't look clean, give the benefit to the batsman. It always leaves you feeling if the call is out, the batsman is doomed.

I remember when the word of the fielder was good enough for the batsman.

Those days are long behind us now sadly.

Didn't think England would win that when I went to sleep, a bowler down and one barely part-time option. Seems the weaker bowling suit did a fine job.

Rashid is a very usefully exotic variation on a fairly familiar menu of staple English bowling skills.

Paine's knock doesn't look like what Australia needed at the end there.

Presume Plunkett is out of the series if he has a hamstring injury.

Big blow, though with the series won.

Big congratulations to the England side for such an unexpected victory.

Wow. I did not think we would win that! After being reduced to 109-4 then 200-6 after 40, 300 definitely seemed above par, and Australia were in the hunt right until the end when some fine death bowling left them too much to do.

As said by me and others above, England have had good patches before between World Cups and have gone on to do poorly, but if this side can stay fit, it does feel as though it could be different this time. Still, you need a spot of luck to win a major tournament too: once you get to the knockouts any team can win, and an amazing individual performance can turn the tables even on a side that's stronger on paper.

Australia are on an unusual losing streak as well, but you have to think they'll pull it together over the next 18 months. With their bowling attack plus Smith, Warner and Finch they are only a couple of batsmen short of a strong team.

yep tournaments are a different game never imagined Pakistan to win the champions trophy, they were 100/1 to win the competition at one point or Sri lanka to beat india chasing 320 odd lol.
not like pakistan had it easy either they had to beat Sri lanka in a game they were destined to lose, then beat England and india in the knockout games two very strong teams and they basically thrashed both of them.

England can call on Curran, Willey and Ball if Plunkett is out.

Every tour seems to carry a ghost with the squad, someone who used to be around the team, but gradually faded away from the consciousness of the spectators and reporters, becoming a vague presence more sensed than palpable, experienced with a shiver at team meeting, or presumed responsible for the recurrent manifestations of plastic cones in the middle between sessions. Last winter it was Gareth Batty, this time it is the lingering memory of Jake Ball.

Did I dream it or was there recently a social media consensus that Buttler should be dropped?
