Pace might not be the way to go, though. In general tonight, the quicker it's come, the faster it's gone.
Target 163
Wood has just bowled at 94.7mph. Some aeroplanes are slower.
Target 163
Four more. A 91mph short ball from Wood. Warner doesn't get all of the hook, but it's enough to get past short fine leg.

He was late on that shot - very lucky.
Target 163
Just over mid-on! Warner sitting on the back foot. Skiddy short ball, pulled, just over the head of the fielder. Two taken.
Target 163
Streaky! Warner inside edges past his own stumps for four.

Andrew Bevan: The way this summer is going I reckon Stuart Broad could still get David Warner out tonight!

Forget pace off. Here's Mark Wood.

This is not the start England wanted.
Target 163
Slower ball! Leading edge, but well short of the point fielder. A little cutter. is pace off the way to go?

Australia's chase is kick-started.
Target 163
Clipped to fine leg for four more, just after the man came into the ring. That's a poor ball from Archer.
Target 163
Hello there! Fraction short from Archer, Finch swivels on a pull for four. Superb stroke.
Target 163
Jofra is already bowling at 92mph.
Target 163
Two slips. Natural light almost gone. Warner pinches a single to get under way.

Aaron Finch and David Warner are two of the most imposing openers in the game.

The opportunity for scoring for Australia will be with the newer, harder ball.
Jofra Archer with the ball. Believe it or not, this is only his second T20 international. David Warner and Aaron Finch opening, as per.
England are ready on the boundary edge. Their red and navy is a superb combo. Australia are looking a bit Norwich City. Not that there's anything wrong with Norwich, but if you tell me that's gold, rather than yellow, I'll think you're lying.
