- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.5 cleaned up! Reward for Rashid. Full at middle, a googly, Short swings and misses aiming to midwicket. Rashid hits. 87/24.2 taken at point! That sped off the bat as Head thrashed a square drive, but picked out the fielder at chest height. But that's another powerful start provided by the stand-in captain 52/112.4 entices the big hit, and taken in the deep! Fraser-McGurk departs for exactly 50, toe-ending a slog high towards long-on, a simple catch for Overton coming in off the rope. Livingstone continues to be a handy source of middle-overs wickets 119/317.1 flipped off the hip, straight to deep square! Good catch running in and Australia lose another. Curran succeeds with pace off from a round-the-wicket angle, Inglis can't manufacture enough power and Carse is again in the mix to complete the dismissal 157/614.3 looped up, Stoinis looks to go big down the ground... but taken at long-on! Carbon copy of the Fraser-McGurk dismissal with Overton running in and holding the ball in his fingertips. A failure to launch from Stoinis, Australia coming unstuck against spin 131/416.6 short ball, edged behind! England all went up in celebration, as did the finger eventually... but David reviews Alex Wharf's decision. There was certainly a noise, but was it bat or body? Here we go: a tickle off the toe, according to Ultra-Edge, and up goes the finger again! 157/5Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL193/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.65)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Travis Head, 4.2 ov), 2-87 (Matthew Short, 8.5 ov), 3-119 (Jake Fraser-McGurk, 12.4 ov), 4-131 (Marcus Stoinis, 14.3 ov), 5-157 (Tim David, 16.6 ov), 6-157 (Josh Inglis, 17.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.2 taken at long-off! Short does the trick. Round the wicket, full at the stumps, Salt looks to go down the ground but can't get the distance as he slices across it 79/33.1 that's very high...but not far enough! Short of a length, angling into the hip, Jacks tries to pick it up over the leg side and finds deep backward square 34/13.3 through him! Two in three balls for Abbott. Back of a length, 85mph, Cox staying leg side of it, nips back off the seam into leg stump 34/218.4 oh dear, Livingstone walks past one to be bowled! Fired full and flat, 63mph and skidding into off stump as he whips across it and misses... Livingstone walks off with one run needed, but job done for England (surely) 193/616.1 attempted reverse, pegs back off stump! No sense of Bethell slowing down with the finish line in sight, he swings hard across the line and misses... Short shivers the timbers, picks up his second of the night. But surely too late to change the result? 169/416.4 Curran skips down... but holes out to extra cover! Two in the over for Short and the crowd has fallen silent for now. Just a smidge of turn and it took the edge, ballooned into the off side. Well held by Connolly as he backpedalled 171/518.5 or not... Carse goes first ball! An extraordinary shot, on the move and launched almost straight up, safely held at mid-on! Short has a five-for, and England still can't get this done! 193/7Extras6 (w 6)TOTAL194/7 (19 Overs, RR: 10.21)Fall of wickets: 1-34 (Will Jacks, 3.1 ov), 2-34 (Jordan Cox, 3.3 ov), 3-79 (Phil Salt, 8.2 ov), 4-169 (Jacob Bethell, 16.1 ov), 5-171 (Sam Curran, 16.4 ov), 6-193 (Liam Livingstone, 18.4 ov), 7-193 (Brydon Carse, 18.5 ov)
