| Jos Buttler, the skipper of England, wins the toss and elects to bowl first. Says he's a little bit unsure about how the track will play so it's better to have a target. Adds playing against Australia is really exciting especially at Barbados and also tells they have beaten the Aussies in the recent past. Informs they are going with the same team. Tells they have a great bunch of guys in the set up. Ends up by saying there are a couple of key areas where they can improve and it's all about playi |
| Australia's captain, Mitchell Marsh says they would have bowled first as well but will now look to post a good total. On holding three ICC major trophies at one time, he adds that everyone that comes here, comes to win the tournament and England are a class team. Mentions that they have a great side with experienced players and it is a chance for them to better their record against England in T20 World Cups. Ends by informing that Pat Cummins comes in to replace Nathan Ellis. |
| PITCH REPORT - Naseer Hussain is pitchside. He starts by saying that there is a nice breeze blowing and the short boundary is with the wind. Matthew Hayden joins him and says that it is a fresh pitch for this game but quite similar to the others and there are cracks on it. They also mentions that the average score on thsi ground is 143 but given the nature of players on show you can add a few runs to it but not quite a 180-plus track. |
| Before the action gets underway at the Kensington Oval, Barbados, the match officials, and the two set of players stride out with pride for their respective national anthems. It will be England's national anthem followed by the Australian anthem. |
| All done with the pre-match formalities and now it's action time at Bridgetown. The two umpires are already out to the middle. England's players spread out to the field after a last-minute huddle talk. Out walk the two Australian openers, David Warner and Travis Head. The latter takes the guard and will have to face spin first up as Moeen Ali will begin the proceedings with the new ball for England. And, here we go... |
| 0.1 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, Nice start from Moeen Ali! Strides in from around the stumps and tosses it up well, getting it to deep around off stump, Travis Head leans right on and blocks it towards mid off. |

| 0.4 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, No run. |
| 0.5 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, No run. |
| 0.6 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, Just the single to end and only 5 runs come off the first over. Shorter in length on middle and leg, worked away wide of mid on for an easy single. |

| 1.1 : Will Jacks to Travis Head, Six! |
| 1.2 : Will Jacks to Travis Head, SIX! Two in two and Travis Head putting Will Jacks under pressure right away. Flighted again and around off stump, not that full, Head gets under it well and slogs it away well over deep square leg for another biggie. |
| 1.3 : Will Jacks to Travis Head, Edged away this time and that's great fielding from Mark Wood. |
| 1.2 : Is that a four? |
| 1.4 : Will Jacks to David Warner, SIX! Oh, that is a poor ball and David Warner will be very happy to get that on the first ball. Too full and angled into the pads, Warner gets low and picks it up and swats it over deep backward square leg for another maximum. 21 already off the over. |
| 1.5 : Will Jacks to David Warner, Floated up on a length around off and getting some extra bounce, David Warner gets the sweep off the top edge and towards short fine leg for a single. |

| Mark Wood is now brought into the attack. He replaces Will Jacks. |
| 3.1 : Mark Wood to David Warner, SIX! That is nonchalant from David Warner! |
| 0.0 : Halt! David Warner has just graciously struck the ball out of the park. The new ball has been taken. |
| 3.2 : Mark Wood to David Warner, SIX! Just using the pace so well here David Warner. Dug in short and at the rib cage at 145.6 clicks, Warner just gets inside the line a bit, swivels and just angles it over deep fine for another maximum. The signs are ominous for England who are under the pump early on here. |
| 3.3 : Mark Wood to David Warner, That in between length on middle and leg, David Warner is unable to get completely forward and decides to just block it back to Mark Wood. |
| 3.4 : Mark Wood to David Warner, SIX! Up, up and away! Carnage out in the middle from David Warner and he has raced to 31 off just 11 balls. Tries to follow up the slower delivery with a quick yorker but ends up serving a full toss on middle and leg.

| 4.1 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, FOUR! Not quite where he intended that to go but that was well-adjusted by Travis Head in the end. |
| 4.2 : Moeen Ali to Travis Head, SIX! Wow, that is a clean strike! A nothing delivery really from Moeen Ali as he tosses it up right in the slot around middle, Travis Head simply hits through tge line and whacks it dead straight over the bowler's head for a huge six. |

Halfway of the first innings done. Australia are cruising nicely at 101/2. |
| 0.0 : Drinks break! Well then, a very well-fought first 10 overs of the first innings but Australia are well in front thanks to that wonderful Powerplay. Both openers, Travis Head and David Warner got away the huge hits early and Warner in particular was in punishing mood. England did well to pick up a couple of quick wickets but are still chasing the game and need a few more wickets in the middle phase to stem the flow of runs. Australia will certainly eye 200 runs from here but can they get to |
| 10.1 : Jofra Archer to Mitchell Marsh, On a hard length around off stump and at just 120 clicks, Mitchell Marsh with a wild hoick across the line but he gets an inside eddhe down towards fine leg and picks up a single. |
| 10.2 : Jofra Archer to Glenn Maxwell, Banged in shorter and slower again over the stumps, Glenn Maxwell stays deep in the crease and hits the pukll flat through mid-wicket for one more. That was actually bowled from the back of the hand by Archer. |
| 10.3 : Jofra Archer to Mitchell Marsh, Mitchell Marsh trying to muscle everything away but Jofra Archer is bringing out those slower ones which are tough to put away. |
| 10.4 : Jofra Archer to Mitchell Marsh, Six! |
| 10.5 : Jofra Archer to Mitchell Marsh, Banged in much shorter and outside off, hit away off the back foot through covers for one. |
| 10.6 : Jofra Archer to Glenn Maxwell, Beaten! Bowls this one quicker and on a fullish length wide of the off stump, getting it to nibble away off the deck. Glenn Maxwell stays back to cut it late but is beaten past the outside edge. |
| 11.2 : Mark Wood to Mitchell Marsh, Back of a length, short and wide of the off stump, this is slapped away to deep point for a single. |
| 11.1 : Mark Wood to Mitchell Marsh, Buzzers! Hard length bowled at the body of the batter, Mitchell Marsh tucks it away behind square leg for one and looks for two but Liam Livingstone is very quick to come in and scores a direct hit at the keeper's end. However, the ball deflects away and eventually, Australia do get the second run. |
| 11.3 : Mark Wood to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Powered way by Glenn Maxwell! Slightly overpitched and angled into the legs, Maxwell holds his shape and whips it away well wide of long on for a boundary. |

| 11.5 : Mark Wood to Glenn Maxwell, Well, that one zipped through! Not anywhere near as quick as the previous one but banged in well short and outside off. The uneven bounce means the ball flies through past Glenn Maxwell and straight to the keeper. |
| 11.6 : Mark Wood to Glenn Maxwell, Good fielding effort! Shortish length at the body, Glenn Maxwell fends it to square leg and looks for one but turns back and Adil Rashid keeps him honest with a throw at the keeper's end but it is well wide. Mark Wood does well to back up and dives across to save any extra runs. |
| Chris Jordan (1-0-5-0) is back into the attack. |
| 12.1 : Chris Jordan to Mitchell Marsh, Too full, in fact, a low full toss on off stump, Mitchell Marsh drives it with a straight bat and down to long off for a single. |
| 12.2 : Chris Jordan to Glenn Maxwell, Oh, what was that from Glenn Maxwell? |
| 12.3 : Chris Jordan to Glenn Maxwell, Six! |
| 12.4 : Chris Jordan to Glenn Maxwell, WIDE! Ooh, maybe a tad harsh call for the bowler. Full and wide, Chris Jordan nails the wide yorker and flirts with the tramline but the umpire feels it is just wide enough and extends his arms. |
| Chris Jordan to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Now, that would have been a wide but Glenn Maxwell does much better and picks up a boundary instead. |
| 12.5 : Chris Jordan to Glenn Maxwell, 1 run. |
| 12.6 : Chris Jordan to Mitchell Marsh, WIDE! With England behind on the over-rate, these extras will certainly frustrate them even further. Full and wide outside off, spilled beyond the tramline and Mitchell Marsh leaves it alone. |
| Chris Jordan to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Absolutely nailed to exactly where the fielder was a delivery ago and Australia pick up 17 runs off that over. Slower and shorter outside off, sitting up nicely for the batter. Mitchell Marsh waits on the back foot and slaps it just behind point for yet another boundary. |

| Is that out? |
| 13.5 : Liam Livingstone to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! STUMPED! Jos Buttler almost made a mess of that one but England do have a breakthrough. Liam Livingstone keeps bowling the leg-breaks to the right-handers and flights this one up nicely on a length and drifts it in from around off. Mitchell Marsh is drawn forward but the ball turns away after pitching and beats the bat. Buttler misses the stumps on the first occasion but the replays show that he did enough on the second attempt and Marsh could o |
| Marcus Stoinis is the new man in at number 5. |
| 13.6 : Liam Livingstone to Marcus Stoinis, Nicely tossed up outside off stump, Marcus Stoinis opens up the off side and drives it firmly down down to long off for a single. |

| 15.1 : Liam Livingstone to Tim David, On the middle stump, full in length, Tim David drives it through covers for a single. |

| 15.4 : Liam Livingstone to Marcus Stoinis, 1 run. |
| 15.5 : Liam Livingstone to Tim David, 1 run. |
| 15.6 : Liam Livingstone to Marcus Stoinis, SIX! MASSIVE! Tossed up in front of the stumps, Marcus Stoinis gets underneath it and powers it straight down the ground for a maximum. |
| 16.1 : Chris Jordan to Tim David, SIX! Oh, what a shot! Half-volley outside off, Tim David sits down on his knee and expands his arms. One hand comes off his bat but the ball travels over deep covers. |
| 16.2 : Chris Jordan to Tim David, DROPPED! That's hit with sheer brute force! Full, outside off, Tim David clears his front leg but bottom edges straight and flat at the bowler where Jordan shells a catch on his followthrough. |
| 16.3 : Chris Jordan to Tim David, Good length outside off, Tim David swings it like a flat-bat towards long off for a single. |
| 16.4 : Chris Jordan to Marcus Stoinis, Slower and outside off, on a length, Marcus Stoinis cuts it too late towards short third for a quick single. |
| 16.5 : Chris Jordan to Tim David, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Tim David departs now. |
| 0.0 : Matthew Wade walks out to the middle now. |
| 16.6 : Chris Jordan to Matthew Wade, WIDE! Slower and down leg, Matthew Wade fails to connect the pull. Wide given. |
| Chris Jordan to Matthew Wade, FOUR! What a shot and what an effort in the deep. |
| 17.1 : Adil Rashid to Marcus Stoinis, Full and on leg, Marcus Stoinis reverse sweeps it to backward point for a single. |

| 17.6 : Adil Rashid to Marcus Stoinis, FOUR! Shot! Good length at the stumps, Marcus Stoinis gets low and reverse laps it towards deep third for a boundary. |
| 18.1 : Jofra Archer to Matthew Wade, EDGED AND FOUR! Streaky but Wade will take it with open arms! |

| 18.4 : Jofra Archer to Marcus Stoinis, 1 run. |
| 18.3 : Jofra Archer to Marcus Stoinis, Back of length, and a leg-cutter outside the off stump. Marcus Stoinis reaches out for it and slaps it straight to extra cover. |
| 18.5 : Jofra Archer to Matthew Wade, 2 runs. |
| 18.6 : Jofra Archer to Matthew Wade, What was Wade trying to do here? An appeal for caught behind and up goes the finger. Guns it on the back of a length, right on the top of off, and gets an extra bit of bounce on the surface as well. Matthew Wade pre-meditates and tries to reverse scoop it over short third and fails to connect it as the ball gets heavy on him with the bounce. The English players appeal and celebrate as they believe that the ball brushed off the bat but UltraEdge shows that no |
| 19.1 : Chris Jordan to Marcus Stoinis, FOUR! Cracking shot! |
| 19.2 : Chris Jordan to Marcus Stoinis, Short and angling into the batter, down the leg side, Marcus Stoinis pulls it to deep mid-wicket for a single. |

| Chris Jordan to Matthew Wade, Short and on the top of off and middle, Matthew Wade pulls it flat along the ground towards deep mid-wicket for a single. 200 up for Australia. |

| 19.5 : Chris Jordan to Pat Cummins, OUT! run out (Jos Buttler / Chris Jordan). |
| 0.0 : Pat Cummins is the new man in. |
| Mitchell Starc is the next man in. |
| Is that a run out? Matthew Wade hits the ball straight to mid off and scampers through for one. The throw comes in quickly and Chris Jordan whips off the bails at the bowler's end but Wade seems to be in by then. However, Wade threatens to sneak an extra run and Jordan uproots one stump. The replays show that there's no problem with the first attempt and Wade is in. But, in the second attempt also, Wade just managed to plant his foot in the crease just before the stump was uprooted. NOT OUT! |
| 19.6 : Chris Jordan to Matthew Wade, DRAMA! |
| Pheww, that was ome end to the first innings and overall, what an exciting watch that was! Full of boundaries, exciting cricket and a bit of that old flame between the two rivals but at the halfway mark, it will be the reigning ODI World Champions who will be very pleased with that total on the board. |
| 0.0 : Riding on a brisk start, Australia managed to get 22 runs each off the 2nd and 4th overs which put them in the driver's seat. David Warner looked particularly dangerous but fell inside the Powerplay and then, Travis Head followed him to the pavilion as well. Still, 74 runs in the first 6 overs was the perfect start and even through the middle overs, they were able to keep on scoring at a decent rate. Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell got a few crucial runs before Marcus Stoinis played a fine |
| England will be fairly deflated after that bowling performance and the fact that they took so much time to bowl their 20 overs, they were left somewhat frustrated as well. The decision to start with spin from both ends didn't work out as after a tidy first over, the part-timer, Will Jacks was taken to the cleaners and they were under the pump from thereon. England bowled decently through the middle overs but couldn't pick up wickets and it was then a double blow for the second time that they w |
| David Warner is down for a quick chat. Warner says that he thinks it is a competitve total. They knew there will be spin inside the Powerplay and says they tried to get as many runs as they could against them. |
| Right then, 202 runs needed for the reigning T20 World Champions to get a win against their eternal rivals and given how the competition has gone by, it will be extremely difficult. However, England do have the batting lineup to get this third-highest chase in the history of the Men's T20 World Cup and this could really end up being an all-time classic. Join us in a bit as the all-important run chase is up next. |
