Australia limited overs tour of England, 2020.

[sussexpob]

Hard to know what a decent total is. Bounce in the pitch is evident its spun a long way on a few. Maybe if Australia can get somewhere near 140 ish they might have a chance, its not a 160-180 pitch this

[Arthur Crabtree]

Depends what Slapsie Maxie does. Just the bowlers left if he gets out.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Out of the box suggestion, pick Joe Denly and give him the new ball.

Has the best bowling average in the squad (admittedly a small sample size) and took 4/19 the only time he has opened the bowling for England.

Or Joe Root.

[Durhamfootman]

This is a shocking last over

Aus were struggling to get close to 150 and now 160 looks on

until the run out. 1 more 6 will get them there, though

[Arthur Crabtree]

Two great balls in that interminable over from Archer. But some sloppy ones too.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Gives the Aussies a chance. OK effort from England though.

[Durhamfootman]

well... there you go... 18 runs off a 9 ball final over. Feels like it has kind of undone a lot of his very good work earlier in the innings

Jordan a bit expensive, I thought, although he did pick up a couple of wickets at crucial times. Too many wayward deliveries throughout from him.

Australia have managed to give themselves something to bowl at

[Arthur Crabtree]

Crappy shot from Captain Morgan. Too late for the Aussies though.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Buttler wins it for England. Handy from Mo too.

Gamble in giving the 19th over to Zampa fails spectacularly.

[Durhamfootman]

game changer, throwing the ball to Zampa

Mo probably doesn't hit those 2 balls if Cummins or Richardson are bowling

18 off 12 with Mo likely to scratch about a bit felt tight to me. 5 balls later and the game's done

An excellent innings from Buttler.... a very measured innings with no gambling, and an excellent decision to take a single off the first ball of that over so that Mo could have a swing, knowing that Buttler was still there to get England over the line if he holed out. A well controlled chase and a nice series win over the Aussies.

Nice to see Mo take charge of the situation

[Durhamfootman]

Archer, Wood and Starc bowled 8 of the 12 PP overs in this match and it was a fine example of what hostile fast bowling can be about. Terrific stuff

[The Professor]

Shining performance from Buttler. Malan has done enough to continue in the team

Archer and Wood kept the Aussies on their toes. Jordan needs to stick to full length. He's not fast enough for anything else anymore.

[sussexpob]

Crappy shot from Captain Morgan. Too late for the Aussies though.

His finger did look pretty mashed up after that fielding injury, I'm surprised he came out

[Arthur Crabtree]

Buttler is missing tonight. I guess Billings comes in. Maybe Denly.

[Durhamfootman]

Billings at 6, Banton to open would be my guess
