Chris Woakes picks up a couple of boundaries off Mitchell Starc to give England some hope here. 75 off 42 balls is still a big ask.

Eng 199-7published at 42 overs
Five dots and a single to finish from Adam Zampa, who looks nailed one to be player of the match here after his efforts with the bat.
He finishes with a scarcely believable 3-21 off 10 overs. That's 19 wickets in the World Cup, too. More than anyone else.

Both Buttler's captaincy and batting has been diabolical during this World Cup. Both him and Mott need to go in my opinion.

David Willey with two boundarties off Mitchell Starc.
The first is strongly clipped off his waist through mid-wicket before creaming a backfoot punch to a delivery on a decent length beyond the sprinting David Warner at deep point.

Adam Zampa collects a big blue towel at the end of the over to mop his brow and keep the moisture from his spinning fingers.
Three crucial wickets for him today.
England need 10s now.

England are wilting.
Moeen Ali goes for an almighty heave off Adam Zampa. A slog sweep down on one knee towards cow corner. It goes high. High enough to strike any passing aircraft en route to the airport in Ahmedabad.
However it's short of the boundary and David Warner watches it drop from the night sky. Easing the catch into soft hands.
I suspect that's it for England bar the shouting.

Eng 186-6published at 39 overs
Those flexible wrists encased in Moeen Ali's navy blue batting gloves roll over the top of a short ball from Pat Cummins and he pulls the Aussie skipper to the fence for four.
Chris Woakes then upper cuts the final ball of Cummins' over for another boundary. That's got him up and running.
Palpable frustration with the wicket of Ben Stokes from moments ago.

Image source, ReutersMoeen Ali's got to take this game deep. Not easy when you need over nines and Chris Woakes has arrived at the crease. He has to bat the majority of these overs, you can't rely on players who've just come out.
Eng 176-6published at 38 overs
Chris Woakes fails to pick Adam Zampa's wrong 'un and it hits him on the pad. However, there was a big chunk of inside edge on that from the Warwickshire all-rounder.
Moeen Ali has looked in good touch here. If he can just bat the next 10 overs...

Livingstone c sub (Abbott) b Cummins 2 (Eng 174-6)
Advantage Australia.
Pat Cummins digs it into the pitch, Liam Livingstone gets over the top of it and nails the pull shot. Except he nails is it to substitute fielder Sean Abbott, who produces a fine diving catch.
Livingstone's miserable World Cup goes on.
