4.45pm: An odd innings, held together by Mitchell Marsh's 73 with Marcus Stoinis (43) and Glenn Maxwell (77) both putting some pressure on England's bowlers. Australia were in all sorts at 123 for 5, with Mark Wood and Adil Rashid taking two early wickets each, but managed to recover well thanks to a 126-run stand between Maxwell and Marsh. England did pretty well after Archer got Maxwell, banging the ball in halfway down at the death and taking pace off, but 295 would be a record run chase on this ground. Sreshth Shah will be here in 30 minutes or so to talk you through England's efforts with the bat.

Manvendra Singh: "With Smith out and Finch and Warner scoring a combined 22, this is a pretty decent effort"

Ujjwal Gulyani: "There has been lot of talk about Australia's middle order lately, but they have decent job today"

CharlieJ: "Amazing RR consistency from England's bowlers, must be amongst the lowest standard deviation ever in ODIs" -- Ha, good spot... only five runs between the cheapest and most expensive bowlers.

Woakes to Starc, SIX, length ball, pace off again, but Starc picks it this time and nails it over midwicket for a towering six! Free swing of the arms, and it lands on the hover-cover 10 yards over the boundary. That's only the third boundary Australia have managed since Maxwell was out in the 44th over

Starc on strike, having got down the other end as quickly as possible

Woakes to Zampa, OUT, short ball, back of a length, and Zampa top-edges the pull straight up into the air... Woakes pouches it! Australia lose their ninth, and Woakes has a wicket to show for his efforts

Woakes to Starc, 1 run, slower ball, back of a length, and carved out to extra cover. Root throws at the stumps, and the ball thumps Woakes on the wrist as he tries to whip the bails off! Starc survives
