That was a big pick up from Will Jacks - a high pull shot rather than a flat one. Coming up, swinging up and under that ball and lifting it away over the leg side. Jacks is now up to 83!
Dispatched over mid-wicket!
Jacks hits Abbott for a huge six, bringing up the 150 partnership.
Green out, Hardie in.
A slightly quieter over, no boundaries, but England still work six runs around the ground.
There's light between the worms, folks.
Repeat, there's light between the worms.

That was a stylish sort of shot from Harry Brook. We've seen Alex Carey try a couple of them and Marnus Labuschagne try it and get out for a duck. But that's the best version of it on the day!
Harry Brook, you've charmed me.
He steps across his stumps to ramp Sean Abbott for four then heaves him for a one-bounce four through mid-wicket two balls later, bringing up England's 150.

Superb steadying innings from Jacks and Brook. Some really strong batting, with some great strokes from Harry Brook in particular. If they can kick on from here, England will have a more than even chance of eclipsing Australia's good target total.

Just one over for Aaron Hardie too, as Mitchell choses to rotate his bowlers again.
It's Cameron Green who comes into the attack, and Jacks turns his third ball square for four.
The only scoring shot of the over until a final ball single to mid-on to retain the strike.

It's an expensive over from Mitchell Starc, but one that England really needed! Perfect if you are an England fan or a player!
A shift in momentum?
England hit Mitchell Starc for three fours, starting with Will Jacks smoking the Australian seamer to the boundary at long-off.
A mere three follows, before Jacks returns to the strike and pulls square, beating the despairing dive of Matthew Short on the ropes.
Another three down to backward point brings Brook back and he lashes Starc's final ball to the cover boundary.
19 from the over.
Just one over for Matthew Short as Aaron Hardie is rotated back into the bowling attack.
Just three from it, including a leg bye off Harry Brook's hip.

But job not done for Will Jacks today! England need to win this to keep the series alive or Australia will take it.
Eng 114-2
And now it's a half century for Will Jacks!
He knocks Mitchell Starc's penultimate delivery over mid-wicket for two to bring up the landmark from 55 deliveries, then moves to 51 with a knock into the leg side.
Like Brook, it's his fourth ODI 50, but it comes from 10 matches.

The more ominous rain clouds have moved away as England edge ahead of the DLS par score.
All the landmarks in this over as a couple of singles bring up the century partnership off 102 balls.
An expensive first over from Short, 12 from it.
Eng 109-2
Brook gets there first!
He does it with consecutive twos, lashing past a diving point and then pushing into the leg side.
It's his fourth ODI half century from 18 matches, and his first as captain. It comes from 54 balls.

It's the first ball of Matt Short's spell and that's just the quality of the man - Harry Brook!
Bringing up England's hundred in style!
Like Maxwell and Green before him, Matthew Short sees his first ball pass the boundary, as Harry Brook lofts him over long-off for six.
Brook joins Jacks on 47, who will reach 50 first?

That was Will Jacks trusting his swing! He knows it's full from Cameron Green. He got into the right position, took the right step and backed his swing. Beautiful shot over mid-off!
Cameron Green is at the top of his run-up for the first time today - Will Jacks greets his opening delivery with a lovely classical punch over the cover ring for four.
A further single past mid-on takes him to 47.
