David Warner really got bogged down, he wasn't able to get the ball away. He got into a really ugly position trying to hit it over mid-wicket.

David Warner had been going nowhere, tried to get himself going with a big shot but sends the ball straight up as he tries to heave Reece Topley into the leg side. An ugly shot.
Brook made the catch look simple and Topley's impressive run continues.
Aus 22-1published at 4 overs
Target 179
Australia take 10 from Willey's over but he's also got rid of the Australian skipper.
Mitch Marsh is the new batter and is off the mark with a single.

He doesn't look happy as he heads down the tunnel.
WICKETpublished at 3.4 overs
Finch c Stokes b Willey 13 (Aus 20-1)
"No!" shouts Finch as soon as he hits it. Straight to Ben Stokes at mid-off.
It's a bit of a half-volley from Willey, in what has been a pretty poor over, but it's brought a wicket now.
Similar to Hales in the England innings, Finch has just hit a four-ball straight to the fielder.
How's stat?!published at 11:22 BST 12 October 2022
Image source, Getty ImagesDavid Willey will continue. He's got David Warner out three out four times in T20 internationals. It's Aaron Finch on strike for now, though.

Target 179
Finch's stance is very interesting. His trigger movement is taking his back foot so far back that he is almost in a baseball stance.
Anyway, it is Warner struggling for the majority of the over as Reece Topley reels off four dot balls in a row to finish.
The last comes off the outside edge as Warner tries to work to leg but the ball drops short of the fielder at short third.

Image source, Getty ImagesAaron Finch has had a lot of trouble with the ball swinging back in from the left-hander recently. So what he is trying to do is take that front pad out of the way. It had become a bit of a target.
Aus 10-0published at 2 overs
Warner 3, Finch 6
Finch pushes a single from the last and it is just the six from the over. Decent start for England's bowlers.
Reece Topley will bowl the next.
Aus 9-0published at 1.5 overs
Target 179
After just a single from the first four balls of David Willey's over, Finch hits up and over extra cover for four.
Firmly struck and giving the wide delivery what it deserved.

A very good over from Ben Stokes and he ends it with a slower ball that Finch watches careful and just pushes into the covers.

Kept out by Finch but good signs for Stokes and England.

BBC Test Match SpecialBen Stokes is not really a quick starter in T20s. So there's a perception of what Ben Stokes is that doesn't really match with reality.
People also talk about his bowling but his bowling in T20s has been quite expensive in the past, so I'd be more inclined to look at Liam Livingstone when he is fit.
Stokes form a concern?published at 11:05 BST 12 October 2022
Image source, Getty ImagesWhile the partnership between Malan and Moeen will have pleased England greatly, they might be slightly concerned by the form of Ben Stokes.
The Test captain struggled to get going again before being bowled by Adam Zampa for seven from 11 deliveries.
His quality is not in doubt and this was only his second T20 international in 18 months but with the start of the T20 World Cup fast approaching and Liam Livingstone still to come back from injury, Stokes' position in the XI is far from guaranteed.

Australia need 179 to winpublished at 10:58 BST 12 October 2022
From 54-4 in the ninth over, England will be happy with where they've ended up.
That is in no small part down to Dawid Malan. The left-hander come in at first drop and looked in magnificent touch from the off. A couple of early drives were timed to perfection and his ability to pick the gaps was on show throughout.
Add in a couple of big hits as the innings went on and you have an exceptional T20 innings from an often maligned England batter.
