Australia already mixing things up as Ellyse Perry opens at the other end for Australia.

Her first ball is clubbed by Sophia Dunkley straight to Phoebe Litchfield in the covers, but it is fumbled and runs away for four.

Darcie Brown hasn't been her best in this series, she's not been accurate with her line and length.

Darcie Brown struggles a bit with her line early on as she also bowls a couple of wides wide. An expensive over first up from the 20-year-old.

It's a big chase but it's within reach for England, they will need a good powerplay. Australia have a much more impressive spin bowling attack so England's middle order will be tested.

England need to get off to a good start - and that will help.

Darcie Brown begins with a no-ball that Tammy Beaumont knocks away for two. Beaumont then clatters the next delivery over the covers and away for four.

There's a huge grin on Beaumont's face. She clearly enjoyed that.

Thanks, Sam.

I return just as the bright yellow shirts of the Australia team make their way to the field.

Sophia Dunkley and Tammy Beaumont is the new-look opening partnership for England.

Darcie Brown will open the bowling for Australia.

So now you're all caught up - not something England can say, sadly but if they can chase down these runs and level the series, that will all be forgotten.

We're not too far away from the start of that chase so it's time for me to hand over to Tom Mallows.

Australia kept going with Beth Mooney leading the way and England still far too generous in the field.

Jess Jonassen was dropped by Lauren Bell - the fifth catch shelled by England - bowled she was bowled by Sophie Ecclestone.

Nat Sciver-Brunt then removed Georgia Wareham in the last over with Australia finishing on 263-8.

Ashleigh Gardner threatened to get going for Australia but her innings was ended by a superb catch from Nat Sciver-Brunt.

That was the first of two wickets in an over for Lauren Bell. The second of them was jaffa to bowl Annabel Sutherland for a two-ball duck...

Yet more chances went begging for England - albeit of differing levels of difficulty - before Alice Capsey bowled Tahlia McGrath...

However, Sophie Ecclestone made amends for her early drop by taking a stunning one-handed catch to remove Phoebe Litchfield.

Ellyse Perry was dropped again, this time by Sarah Glenn, but the England leg-spinner quickly righted that wrong by dismissing the Australia all-rounder for 41...

It could have got even better for England but Sophie Ecclestone dropped a tough chance at slip to give Ellyse Perry a life on six.

Perry and Phoebe Litchfield then began to build a dangerous partnership for Australia...

Let's have a look back at the best of the action from the Australia innings.

It all started so well for England when Kate Cross trapped Alyssa Healy lbw in the first over...

England's Alice Capsey to Sky Sports: "If you said before the start that we would chase 264 we would take it. There were bits of brilliance in the field and some really good spells with the ball, I thought the seamers bowled brilliantly.

"The pitch is a little two-paced, if you put it in a good area it looks hard to score. Our openers will go out there, assess and pass it on to us.

"That is the advantage of bowling first. You can use that knowledge of what worked on the pitch, relay it to the batters and take it out there."

On her bowling: "I got told I would be bowling a couple of overs, I didn't think I would bowl nine in a row. But I am happy to be able to contribute with ball in hand."

We're so used to Australia scoring 300+ at ease in ODI cricket, that 260 almost feels like a failure.

But some signs from the spinners that the ball is keeping a little low, and Australia have got three quality spinners in Jess Jonassen, Ash Gardner and Georgia Wareham.

It's not going to be straightforward for England, who could be chasing a lot less if they held their catches, but this impressive crowd here could help them get over the line.

England will be pretty happy to restrict Australia to that 260 mark. But when they look back and reflect they dropped a lot of catches so could have had them 220 all out.

There were some outstanding bits of fielding within that, though.

Good comeback from Nat Sciver-Brunt after the boundary first ball of the over.

Beth Mooney's unbeaten 81 has taken Australia to a competitive total - the fourth highest total in a women's ODI at Bristol, in fact - but England are still right in it.

Heather Knight's side will hope they aren't left to rue six missed chances - five dropped catches and a missed stumping. They need 264 to level the series.

If Australia get to 270 that would be a tough, tough ask for England.

Loose from Nat Sciver-Brunt to start the over and Beth Mooney gratefully whips the ball past short fine leg for four.

Another 20 runs from five ball for a century...?
