Nifty bit of footwork from Jake Ball stops a Travis Head straight drive running away for runs.

This is quick from Ball, up at about 89mph, but he strays onto the pads and Head flicks him through square leg for four.

A low full toss from Sam Curran, and Travis Head clunks it rather awkwardly through point for Australia's first boundary.

Head then goes up and over Alex Hales at deep mid-wicket for another boundary, before a dinky push down the ground adds another couple to the total. 14 from the over!

It's such a positive thing for England to have that strength in depth - and they'll need that over the next 12 months. Certainly over a World Cup, you're going to use more than your best XI.

New boy Sam Curran is going to open the bowling alongside Jake Ball.

Aaron Finch bunts a full Jake Ball delivery off his toes and back towards the bowler, before a bit of leg-side nonsense runs away for three runs.

Travis Head then scores Australia's first runs off the bat with a flick down to third man. This is Ball's first ODI appearance since January, when England played Australia at Perth.

That was a bit harsh.

Jake Ball will open the bowling for England - oh, and he bowls a wide first up.

That's a very marginal call, I'd wager. My workmate has shouted for VAR to review it.

England are on a high - they think they can get absolutely anything that Australia set them.

It is absolutely glorious in Manchester today. Australia have got perfect conditions, and a tasty-looking pitch to play with.

Aaron Finch and Travis Head will open the batting for Australia.

England have only ever claimed one whitewash victory in a bilateral ODI series - they beat Zimbabwe 5-0 in 2001.

And on a positive note for England, they've now won 11 (ELEVEN!) of their last 13 ODI matches against Australia, with two defeats.

Strong work from England during their training session yesterday.

It's a sell-out today - I wonder how many people will make their way out to watch the football. It's up to England to entertain them.

It's been a good series for Adil Rashid, who has now taken more wickets for England in 50-over cricket than any other spinner.

Rashid has taken 11 wickets so far, taking his overall total to 106 and putting him in front of Graeme Swann, who took 104.

"We have the chance to win 5-0 so we are going to go out and give it our best shot," Rashid said on Saturday.

"It is Australia, it is nice beating them but it is nice beating everybody else as well."

Sky have shown a montage this morning of how England's one-day team has transformed since they were dumped out of the World Cup in 2015.

It has, when you think about it, been an astonishing turn-around. The scores they rack up now just didn't look possible for them three years ago.

England all-rounder Ben Stokes, who is recovering from a torn hamstring, on Sky Sports: "I've been running and batting for the last two weeks. Now it's a case of building the bowling up. We don't want to be rushing back too quickly."

On when he will return: "That's going to be a discussion with the coaches. Ideally I would like to get some games in before I come back into this high-intensity cricket, whether that be for Durham or whoever. Realistically it's looking like the one-dayers against India."

England begin a three-match one-day series against India on 12 July.

What are Sam Curran's List A stats, I hear you ask?

He's taken 66 wickets in 49 matches at an average of 30.89. He also finished with match figures of 2-43 when he made his Test debut against Pakistan at Headingley.

England captain Eoin Morgan, speaking at the toss: "We would have batted first, given the ground and conditions. It looks a really good wicket. Over the years here it has got a little more difficult to chase, but its a good challenge for us.

"It's a matter of waking up every day and trying to get a feel of what is good on that day to win a game. We've been working on trying to get more consistency. Hopefully today we can replicate that again."

It's just been pointed out that Australia have whitewashed England at the coin toss.

So that's something, I guess.
