  1. Aus 1-0

    A bit of nip early on from Matthew Potts, who gets the ball to jag back into Matthew Short.

    Potts' third delivery nips the other way and Short carefully dabs it down for a single.

  2. Australia opener Matthew Short has just taken his guard.

    Durham pace bolwer Matthew Potts has the ball in hand and is just going through some final warm-up exercises at the top of his mark.

    "Play" call the umpires.

  3. The teams

    England: Ben Duckett, Phil Salt, Will Jacks, Harry Brook (captain), Jamie Smith (wicketkeeper), Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Matthew Potts

    Australia: Matt Short, Mitchell Marsh (captain), Steve Smith, Cameron Green, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (wicketkeeper), Glenn Maxwell, Aaron Hardie, Sean Abbott, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood

  4. 'Stay in the present'

    Australia Mitchell Marsh: "I'm starting to wonder if there is a heads on that coin! We'd have bowled first as well, but obviously happy to bat first.

    "I think the main thing we need to do is stay in the present. We have a really good side out today with these 11 guys and a chance to win this series so it's about rocking up today and trying to win a game of cricket for Australia."

  5. 'Better for longer'

    England captain Harry Brook: "Hopefully there is a little bit in it early on and we can expose their top order.

    "We need to be better for longer really. In the first two matches we built a lot of pressure through the middle bowling, and then we would have a bit of a let out ball and they would get away from us again. We have to keep looking to take wickets throughout and hopefully the rewards come.

    "It's a long time to bat [in ODIs). Obviously we have picked guys because of their capabilities and what they do. They are in the side for a reason and we don't want that to change that. So we want them to go out there, play their game, and do what they have done for their counties and whoever else.

    "Hopefully it's a packed out crowd and we give them something to cheer about and do well."

  6. Archer back, Head rested

    Australia make a couple of changes as Travis Head is rested after feeling a bit sore after the second ODI, while Adam Zampa misses out through illness.

    Mitchell Marsh said both "are precautionary" and confirmed he will replace Head opening the batting.

    Cameron Green and Sean Abbott are the men to replace them.

    For England, Jofra Archer comes back in for Olly Stone

  7. England win toss and bowl

    The toss took place a few moments ago.

    Australia skipper Mitchell Marsh called heads but it came down a tail.

    Harry Brook, who has won all three tosses in this series so far, decides to bowl first.

  8. Welcome...

    England 2-0 down against Australia, with three matches to play. We've been here before, quite recently, haven't we?

    Last summer England's Test side roared back to draw 2-2 in the Ashes. Can the white-ball outfit do likewise?
