    WICKETpublished at 8.2 overs

    Carey b Rashid 3 (Aus 72-4)

    Bowled him!

    It's a bit of an agricultural heave towards leg by the left-handed Alex Carey and he misses the leg-break, with the ball clattering into the stumps.

    More prodigious work by Adil Rashid, hurrying the Aussie wicketkeeper with a faster delivery.

    England's spinners wreaking yet more havoc.

  2. Aus 72-3published at 8.1 overs

    New man Alex Carey has all the shots in his locker but picks up two with a clip through mid-wicket.

    Brief shout for a run out as the throw comes in but Eoin Morgan had broken the stumps with his hands anyway.

  3. Aus 70-3published at 8 overs

    Target 222

    Aaron Finch opens the face and tickles it through third man for four. Deft shot.

    But it's a great start by Moeen Ali, just seven off the over and the wicket of Head.

    That was down to the good work of Adil Rashid in the previous over.

    It was a very tinny sound off the bat.

    WICKETpublished at 7.2 overs

    Head c Hales b Moeen 15 (Aus 64-3)

    The pressure of chasing tells as Moeen Ali strikes early.

    Restricted to just singles among the dot balls against the spinners, Travis Head goes for the big shot down the ground.

    He doesn't get hold of it at all and Alex Hales snaffles the catch a long-on.

    It will be double spin for England.

    Here comes Moeen Ali...

    Australia up against it - plenty of work to do.

    Australia have fallen slightly behind the rate and it's these two wickets that have hampered their progress.

    First Liam Plunkett had D'Arcy Short caught round the corner with a slower ball...

    ...before Chris Jordan cleaned up Glenn Maxwell with a tremendous change-up...

    That's an excellent start from Adil Rashid.

  11. Aus 63-2published at 7 overs

    One. Dot. Dot. One. One. One.

    You won't see many better first overs in T20 cricket.

    Superb by Adil Rashid, changing his pace brilliantly.

    Adil Rashid is into the attack.

    He and Moeen Ali tormented Australia throughout the ODI series, what can England's spinners do here?

    Crucial period of the match.

    Australia need to get a move on - 59 is reasonable but those two wickets have hampered them, chasing this huge total.

  14. Aus 59-2published at 6 overs

    Target 222

    Hmm. A few scrambled minds out there for England.

    David Willey tries going round the wicket but fires a low full toss straight at Aaron Finch.

    Australia's captain doesn't miss those, clipping powerfully behind square for four.

    That's the powerplay done - England were 70-0 at this stage.

  15. Aus 53-2published at 5.2 overs

    Bosh!

    David Willey strays short, Aaron Finch backs away and slaps it over the covers for four.

    That's 50 up for Australia. Finch has only faced eight balls so far. He looks in the mood.

    Nic Zamorski: Batting superb but don’t ignore pace problems - Willey, Wood, Jordan, Ball, Overton etc not yet finished article.

  17. Aus 47-2published at 5 overs

    Target 222

    Liam Plunkett bangs it down very short and Jos Buttler can't get there, just about slowing the ball before he goes to fetch it, conceding a bye.

    Plunkett goes into the pitch again, Head chops it against his body and scampers one.

    England shy at the stumps at one end and then the other. All happening.

    That's a decent over from Plunkett in the end - eight from it.

  18. Aus 44-2published at 4.2 overs

    New man Travis Head whips Liam Plunkett behind square for four.

    Australia are up with the rate.

  19. Aus 39-2published at 4 overs

    Target 222

    He's taken some tap, but that wicket of Maxwell could be a vital intervention by Jordan.

    Still 28 runs leaked off his two overs though.
