  1. Aus 21-1

    Usman Khawaja is the new man and the left-hander gets off the mark with a defensive push, that due to the pace of the bowler and the outfield races away for four.

  2. Stuart Law
    Former West Indies head coach

    West Indies make their mark early with pace - he drew Finch into the shot and it's a good catch behind the stumps.

    WICKET

    Finch c Hope b Thomas 6 (Aus 15-1)

    But this one is too good for Finch and the Windies have an important early breakthrough - it's a perfect line and it takes the edge.

  4. Stuart Law
    Former West Indies head coach

    Sheldon Cottrell is a serving member of the Jamaican Army and his salute is to thank his officer, who must give him permission to represent the West Indies each time he plays.

  5. Aus 15-0

    Finch 6, Warner 2

    CH Gayle firmly ensconced in the slip cordon as left-arm paceman Sheldon Cottrell takes up the attack from the Pavilion End and not much there to trouble the experienced Australian duo.

    Not really seeing how de Kock's catch is that spectacular. Should be firmly in the above average category

  7. Aus 10-0

    There is swing for Thomas but he then sends down a no-ball. So a free hit for David Warner who clubs it to mid-on, where he is dropped. Already up at 88mph, this should be fun to watch.

    Speaking to the coaching staff, West Indies' plan is to hit Australia with extreme pace early on. There's no better man to do that than Oshane Thomas.

  9. It will be the strapping figure of Oshane Thomas to start - having been the fifth bowler used during his exploits against Pakistan. After all that build-up it is way down the leg-side and races away for five wides.

    It's mayhem outside the ground - it's going to be a good atmosphere here today.

  11. There can surely be no disagreement that "Rally Round the West Indies" is a great anthem. Prince Far I's "Cricket, Lovely Cricket" could be on the b-side. Michael Holding is commentating today too. The great fast bowler gets liberal encomiums during that tune - which my wife does not regard as a tune.

    Regarding that message at 10:01 - don't be so against us fat people... we can do wonders. Just ask Andy Ruiz Jr!

    Amar, Coventry

    Don't worry, Amar. I'm not so svelte myself... I'm merely observing that I do not think he would have caught it - hence that not every wicketkeeper in the tournament would have done so. Shahzad is unconventional, I think that much we can say.

  14. Trent Bridge record

    Lots of talk about scorecards with 500 on and there have been some big scores at Trent Bridge, England with the highest of course - which came against Australia last year, 481-6, with 21 sixes.

  15. Teams

    Australia: Aaron Finch (cap), David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey (wkt), Nathan Coulter-Nile, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa

    Jim Davis: For me, there is much to admire in the de Kock catch. But then again, I was once a wicketkeeper with the reaction time of Corporal Jones.

  17. Australia dominate recent meetings

    Fair to say Australia have had the better of things recently then - and they have won nine of the last 10 ODI matches between the two, the most recent of which was back in June 2016.

  18. In-form Australia

    The Australians went on to a 5-0 win over Pakistan - Finch scoring 451 runs in the series - and with a seven-wicket success in their opening match of this tournament against Afghanistan, they extended their winning run to nine matches, their longest such streak since doing the same between March and September in 2015.

  19. Rags to riches

    Remember when Australia were looking very sorry for themselves, minus Smith and Warner, and lost nine times out of 10 home and away against England last year? They actually lost a total of 15 out of 18 ODI matches from 2018 to March this year, when the resurgence started in India and they won the last three there to take the series 3-2.

  20. Langer wary of Windies threat

    Australia coach Justin Langer is well aware of the threat posed by the Windies and said in his news conference that they were showing "plenty of signs" of the "Calypso cricket" played by their previous dominant sides.
