Pat Cummins's side were invited to bat first. The Aussie lost their openers Travis Head and David Warner early on in the innings. The five-time world champions made two forced changes to their side with Cameron Green and Marcus Stoinis coming back to the squad.

Head and Warner were dismissed by Chris Woakes. The former scored 11 runs and Warner was back in the dugout after 15 runs.

Labuschagne was the highest scorer for his side as he scored 71 runs. Green and Stoinis stitched a decent 45-run stand. The former scored 47 runs and the latter was out on 35 runs. But Zampa's 29 runs off 19 balls at the end helped them score a defendable 286 runs. 

In response, England lost their opener Jonny Bairstow in the first ball and then Joe Root was also dismissed on 13 runs But Dawid Malan and Ben Stokes re-built the innings with an 84-run partnership. Malan was out after scoring his fifty and Stokes departed after a 90-ball 64. After that wickets kept on falling at regular intervals.
