Australia beat England by 49 runs (DLS) to win fifth men’s ODI and series – as it happened
England collapsed after a spectacular start with the bat as Australia won the ODI series decider on a rainy day in Bristol
2nd over: England 17-0 (Salt 16, Duckett 1) Ben Duckett gets off the mark less flamboyantly, with a nudge to leg for a single off Hazlewood. Salt is beaten again, perilously close to the off bail, as Hazlewood finds a classic length and some movement off the seam. But Salt hits back with a lofted square drive. He already has four fours, which is one more than ten of the Aussies managed at Lord’s between them (Head four, the rest three).

So this over looks like a triumph for England. But the guide was jammy – Salt seemed to be pulling the bat away – and he also played and missed, twice.
