Earlier, Australia faced a tough chase of 352 runs after England posted a mammoth 351/8 in their 50 overs, with Ben Duckett's brilliant 165-run knock leading the way. Despite Australia's top-order struggles, which saw Travis Head and Steve Smith dismissed cheaply, they began to find some momentum, with Inglis and Carey fighting back.

Liam Livingstone and Adil Rashid played key roles for England, with Livingstone dismissing Matthew Short, who had made a fine 63. Australia's middle-order now faces a challenge to keep the chase alive, with the required run rate creeping up.
