    35.3 caught at fine leg! What has he done? A century and out. A high short ball, he was sucked into hooking, it was high and outside his eyeline, he gets a top edge that flies to fine leg and Woakes, after misfielding to concede his hundred, hangs on to the catch. Big blow landed by England 185/3
    22.4 Warner's gone! This is a massive breakthrough for England, a bit of extra kick outside off, and Root at backward point snaffles a llimp uppish punch off the back foot. Suckered off the pitch, and startled mid-stroke, but that's been an brilliant start for Australia 123/1

    32.2 bowled him! 90mph from Stokes, right into the blockhole, and Khawaja was simply beaten for pace as this shaped back in as he wafted rather loosely across the line. A vital incision to end a burgeoning stand 173/2
    45.4 holes out to long on! Archer takes the catch running in! It was full outside off, he tried to whip this up and over the man in the circle at midwicket, but completely miscued skying towards long on, Archer had to run in some way but he did well to get there and hold on coming forward 250/6
    38.2 caught behind! 143kph short ball lifting outside off, Maxwell was caught in two minds as to what to do, he tried to run it to third man, got a thin edge through to Buttler who took a simple catch 213/4
    41.5 horror mix up and Stoinis is run out as they end up at the same end! Smith drives past cover wide of long off, Stoinis touches for one and sprint back for two and Smith doesn't run! Stoinis would have beaten the throw running to the non-striker's but he keeps running to the rooms. Rashid gathers and lobs it Buttler! 228/5

    47.1 edged and taken by Buttler! Good delivery. Good length outside off, seam was wobbling, he drives without much footwork, it takes the edge and Buttler dives low to his right to hang on 259/7

    0.2 massive inswinger and Vince has been castled! Shades of Starc to Brendon McCullum in the World Cup final 2015, looking to drive but nowhere near the ball, and huge jubilation for the Aussies! Wow, what a start! If England thought they could shake off their nerves with belligerence, they've got another thing coming! 0/1
    13.5 Bairstow holes out to deep midwicket! That's a flaccid finish to a fighting knock, climbing into the pull but beaten once again by the extra bounce from the lanky Behrendorff! Cummins is lurking back on the rope and England are ever deeper in the soup! 53/4
    3.3 there's the inswinger again! Pace, length, inswing, it's a stunning triple whammy, and though Root thinks of the review, he knows it is utterly plumb! He was simply late on the stroke once again, even though his entire set-up had been primed for it. These are very, very dangerous signs for the world No.1s! 15/2
    5.5 banged in short, Morgan climbs into the pull but that's a top-edge! Cummins steadies himself inside the fine-leg rope, and this innings is in tatters now! The surprise bouncer reaps its rewards. England's fabled depth is going to be tested once again! 26/3

    36.6 that is too good! It was going to take something outstanding to dislodge Stokes, and Starc serves it up with an impeccable off-stump yorker, tailing back in wickedly as it zeroed in on the base of the pole! He kicks his bat away in disgust, but he's done everything he can to keep England alive ... 177/6
    27.2 caught at deep square! What a catch from Khawaja on the rope! Buttler can't believe it! He got a length ball on the hip and flicked it powerfully and flat behind square, Khawaja tight-roped the boundary at full pace, took the catch with two hands running to his right and kept his balance while never stepping on the rope! 124/5
    41.3 a massive wipe over the leg side, but what a catch! Woakes thought he had nailed it, in the arc, a huge heave, but Maxwell tracked back on the edge of the rope, hopped to pouch the ball high above his head, then, cool as you like, lobbed it back to the waiting Finch to complete a routine relay! England, as if you didn't already know it, are sunk without trace in this one! 202/8
    39.3 edged and gone! Moeen's shocking run can't end today, a perfect response. Tightened the line and length, nipped off the seam. met the outside edge of a hard-handed push and Carey swallows the catch! Moeen had to look to be assertive, but that ball wasn't there to be attacked, and he was beaten before his stroke could fully take shape 189/7
    44.4 opens the face again, and it's all over! A spooned drive to short cover, and Australia have wrapped up a 64-run victory and a place in the World Cup semi-finals! 221/10
    43.3 battered down the throat of long-off! Behrendorff has five wickets, and Australia are one wicket away from the semi-finals! In the slot, but Archer's indifferent batting continues. A new entry for the new-look ODI honours boards 211/9
