Preview:

Australia put up a brilliant fightback in the first game of the ODI series courtesy the likes of Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Marsh and the bowlers. However, they failed to carry forward the precedent. They were in a much better position in the 2nd ODI as compared to the 1st ODI. But on this occasion, it was the turn of England to outsmart their opponents.

The English bowlers put up a brilliant act together and pulled off what seemed impossible at one stage of the game. They would be high on spirits after this victory and would like to go on and win the third ODI as well. However, Australia will look to draw the positives from the last game and will hope to clinch the series.
