OUT! Pat Cummins strikes! Umpiring howler this! Jason Roy is unhappy and rightly so. England has no review left! Roy has to go. Umpire first was little hesitant to give that out, eventually raised his finger. J Roy c Carey b Pat Cummins 85(65)

OUT! Finally Australia pick a wicket. It is Mitchell Starc who strikes. Superb bowling that. He traps Jonny Bairstow in front of the wickets. J Bairstow lbw b Starc 34(43)  

Steve Smith into the attack and he gets smashed for 21 runs in one over. Jason Roy slammed him for three back to back sixes. England in total control now.

England now need 129 more runs to win now from 35 overs. The asking rate is worth 3.69 runs per over for the hosts. England inching towards the finals spot.

Things getting worse and worse for Australia now as England openers continue to put up a good show. 144 more runs to win for England now with ten wickets in hand.

Nathan Lyon into the attack and he proves to be expensive in his first over. Jason Roy smashed him for a six and a four. 13 runs from Lyon's first over.

That's fifty up for England. This has been a good start for England. Australian bowlers have failed to pick a wicket with the new ball. The defending champions need some magic here.

England need 184 more runs to win from 32 overs now.  The required-rate is not the problem for England and it should not be as they are chasing a paltry target.

Good start this for England. Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow have picked two fours each.  Australia's search for first wicket continues.

Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy are the two England openers. So far it has been a watchful start for England and rightly so. They ain't chasing a big total and need to be cautious upfront.

So, that's the end of Australia's innings. Disappointing end to the Australia's innings. Steve Smith was brilliant with his knock but could not take Australia to a competitive total. Do join us back for England's chase.

OUT! Mark Wood with a superb yorker. And Jason Behrendorff can't keep it away. He is bowled! Australia have been bundled out for 223 here. England will be happy. J Behrendorff b Mark Wood 1(4)

OUT! Chris Woakes strikes! Australia lose two in two balls. Mitchell Starc is caught behind as he was eyeing a boundary. Australia were looking well-set for a total close to 250 and now even 225 looks distant. M Starc c Buttler b Woakes 29(36)

OUT! Steve Smith is run-out. He was looking to steal a quick single. Jos Buttler removes his gloves and has a shy at stumps at the non-striker's end. He hits it directly and that is end of Smith's fine knock. S Smith run out (Buttler) 85(119) 

Seven runs from this Mark Wood over. Australia need to finish big in these last three overs. If they manage to reach 250 from here, it will be a good total. England will be looking to break this stand, which is now worth 51 off 56 balls.

England opted for review against Steve Smith, but it was an umpire's call. So Smith survives as he eyes final flourish for Australia. The defending champions need some big overs here.

The partnership between Steve Smith and Mitchell Starc is now worth 40 off 44 balls. Starc has done well to score 22 off 27 balls. Meanwhile, Smith is nearing his century.
