00:00And there comes one of the danger men.
00:03Travis said he was quite brilliant at the top of the order in that game at Barbados.
00:07Stumpy, so strong through the offside.
00:11No backward point because of the unusual field they have.
00:15On that line is the sweeper, Jordan Cox,
00:18with a regulation field that may well have gone straight to backward point.
00:31Boys!
00:37That sounded good off the bat. It is good off the bat.
00:40We have our first six of the evening.
00:43And it's gone a long way back on this big ground.
00:49And again, this time finer.
00:54And same result.
00:57Offside as he can.
01:00Like that. This time up and over.
01:02He's been waiting for that.
01:05And that's his first boundary.
01:11And again, offside four more.
01:19Follows him. And that is a top, top shot.
01:22Just helps it off his hip.
01:25Three boundaries in the over for Head.
01:30Short, wide, dispatched.
01:32Got what it deserved really.
01:34Can't be that line.
01:41Now, is there a noise?
01:42Yes, given.
01:45And immediately he's reviewed it.
01:47He says he's hit somewhere on his body.
01:50Okay, flat line as the ball passes the bat.
01:53Roll it through.
01:55And it flicks the jumper.
01:56Okay, I'm ready to go back on the field to Ali.
02:01Starts with a slower ball.
02:02He had to really wait for that.
02:05And he waited long enough.
02:06It didn't sound great off the bat.
02:08It was good enough.
02:13That's where he wants it.
02:15He just gives himself a bit of room.
02:17When you see the replay, he'll open up.
02:19He'll show you his stumps.
02:23Again, square of the wicket.
02:24England need to be fuller.
02:26They are full.
02:27Again, square of the wicket.
02:28England need to be fuller.
02:29They are feeding the strength.
02:3250 comes up for Australia.
02:38He has pitched it up.
02:40And it has been belted.
02:41This time over mid wicket for six.
02:47Man out there.
02:48But again, he's just getting it from the crowd.
02:51This is remarkable hitting from Short and Head.
02:58And again, another boundary.
03:00One bounce for 30 from the over from Curran.
03:0471 from five, Australia.
03:08Throwing an early blow.
03:12Head goes again.
03:13And it's going to be all the way into the crowd once more.
03:17This man is so, so dangerous.
03:20Did he get a bit of bat on that?
03:28Yes.
03:33Inside edge.
03:34That'll fly away for four as well.
03:41Well, that one's gone straight up.
03:42There are two fielders converging.
03:45One of them will take the catch.
03:47Huge roar.
03:49Jordan Cox on debut.
03:54Knocked him over.
04:00Abdel Rasheed, just the man.
04:02Just the man that England wanted and needed to calm things down.
04:10Gets it through the two backward points.
04:14And it will rush away for four.
04:16Short starts the boundary.
04:23Not out of the middle, but it skids on off this greasy surface.
04:27And it is back to back boundaries to finish off Jake Bethel's first over.
04:35Down the ground.
04:37Mid-off was wide.
04:41Oh, slapped away.
04:43I think that's found the gap.
04:46Yeah, nothing Jordan Cox could do about that on that occasion.
04:50Just a little bit of wind.
04:53Catch it.
04:54Swept away.
04:55Hasn't got all of it.
04:57Good catch.
04:58Excellent catch.
04:59Sam Curran, safe hand.
05:00Boy, did England need that.
05:02Outfielders do this a lot.
05:04They'll just hold back off it so they can get a dive at the ball.
05:08With extended arms so they break their fall and not bang their elbows on the ground.
05:11That's good outfielding.
05:12Good catch.
05:13A wicket will fall.
05:16Catch.
05:17Beautifully struck down the ground.
05:19Wonderful batting.
05:21Beautiful timing.
05:22Hard and clean down the ground.
05:25He might have been aiming slightly more left side with that one,
05:28but he sliced it straight back over the bowler's head for a maximum.
05:33How is that?
05:34How is that?
05:35Determined to play that shot.
05:36How is that?
05:37Not quite worked out for him.
05:38Liam Livingston is still very interested.
05:47OK.
05:48If we could go to Oldsredge.
05:52Original decision was not out.
05:54Pitching in line, impact in line, and hit the wicket.
05:57Excellent from Liam Livingston.
05:59Ricky was talking about that reverse sweep.
06:01They knew it hadn't quite turned as much as he thought.
06:06Oh, yeah!
06:07Liam Livingston's interested.
06:09No is the call.
06:12Hard and clean down the ground.
06:16He might have been aiming slightly more left side with that one,
06:19but he sliced it straight back over the bowler's head for a maximum.
06:26That's probably a better option.
06:37Catch it.
06:38Hammered.
06:39Absolutely hammered.
06:40It was a little short.
06:41It was picked up.
06:42Joshua Inglis is enjoying the conditions.
06:47Catch it.
06:48Lovely shot.
06:49Almost shot of the evening.
06:51Maybe shot of the evening from Josh Inglis.
06:58Bound him.
06:59Gone.
07:00Sam Curran.
07:01Absolutely brilliant comeback after that expensive first over.
07:10In the air, mid-off.
07:11Oh, down!
07:13Sam Curran it is.
07:15Diving one-handed behind himself.
07:18Puts it down.
07:23Gone.
07:24Ball and straight from Archer.
07:30Gone.
07:31Two and two.
07:32Archer again.
07:33Ball and straight.
07:34And this one is passed.
07:39Oh, gone again.
07:42Rinse, repeat for England.
07:44Balls straight.
07:45Balls everywhere.
07:52Up in the air and down the ground from Zampa.
07:55There's a lovely shot.
07:57Goes for four.
07:59Very valuable runs towards the back end of the innings.
08:04On the boundary.
08:06Archer falling straight again.
08:08Pushing hard for two.
08:09This is going to be tight.
08:11This is going to be very, very tight.
08:14A dive from Zampa.
08:16England think they have the run out.
08:19But it will go upstairs.
08:24OK, I'm ready with my decision for the big screen.
08:30With the wet hard square.
08:32And that is a superb fight back from England.
08:35132 for three.
08:37132 for four.
08:43Not out of the middle.
08:45But it doesn't need to be.
08:47It finds the gap.
08:54Does play the pick up.
08:56But it goes straight into the hands of Matt Short.
09:06Oh, that's a peach.
09:08Absolute beauty from Salt.
09:17And streaky from Cox.
09:19But it's four.
09:26Repeats the dose.
09:29Guided away.
09:31Quite deliberately from Salt.
09:39Slow ball picked and slapped.
09:43That's a bit more like it from Jordan Cox.
09:45That will make him feel a whole lot more at home.
09:51He's got a bit of that.
09:54Oh, my goodness me.
09:56Wow.
09:58Tim David.
10:00Clung on in spectacular style.
10:02Yeah, the silence was deafening.
10:04Everyone thought, right, this will be two, maybe three, maybe four.
10:08Oh, just in.
10:13Opens the face again.
10:15Glorious cover drive once more.
10:18From Skipper Salt.
10:20That is a fabulous way to finish.
10:22Five or six.
10:26Pulled away from Salt.
10:28There's a chance.
10:30Gone.
10:32Taken.
10:34Matt Short in the deep.
10:36Takes a good catch.
10:38And Phil Salt is gutted.
10:40It's a straight line.
10:42Just slightly high.
10:44One more yard of carry is all it would need.
10:46Safely taken above his head.
10:48Safely inside the boundary line.
10:50So a big wicket for Australia.
10:52A big wicket for Abbott.
10:54The England captain.
10:56Backroom staff.
10:58Yeah!
11:00Come on!
11:02Bold Zampa.
11:04Bathel not picking off the length.
11:06Going back to a fuller delivery.
11:09Bathel not picking off the length.
11:11Going back to a fuller delivery.
11:17Pulled away from Livingston.
11:19Into the vacant fine leg.
11:21And picks up the welcome boundary for England.
11:27Oh, that's gone a long, long way.
11:29Probably the biggest of the evening so far.
11:31Certainly one of them.
11:33Livingston beginning to find his stride now.
11:39Lovely looking shot.
11:41And will find the boundary.
11:43This is the big over that England needed.
11:49Lovely shot. Wonderful strike.
11:51Not an easy shot to play.
11:53Even though it was a fraction full.
11:55England beginning to motor now.
11:57Come on Abbott.
11:59Pumped.
12:01Absolutely pumped.
12:03And finding the gap.
12:05England definitely finding their stride now.
12:07A little bit of pressure.
12:11Extraordinary shot.
12:13And an extraordinary effort in the field.
12:15It will go still for four.
12:17That was a brilliant effort.
12:19It was hit hard and flat.
12:21Sliced away off the face of the bat.
12:27Would you believe it?
12:29It was short.
12:31It was begging to be hit down to fine leg for four.
12:33Adam Zampa can't keep him out of the action.
12:37Perhaps a bit of a cutter.
12:39Just got it in the perfect spot to a left-hander.
12:41Right at the right ear.
12:47Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
12:49Great call from Mitchell Marsh as well.
12:51The return of Josh Hazlewood.
12:53And real problems now for England.
12:59Not got that. Not got that at all.
13:03Good work. Excellent work in the deep.
13:08Hit hard.
13:10Hit hard. Hit square.
13:12Jamie Overton.
13:14Well, if he has a little bit of fun for 15 or 20 minutes.
13:20Make that another boundary.
13:29Now dragged on off his pads.
13:31Giving himself room.
13:38Toe end of the bat.
13:40But up and above Josh Hazlewood's head.
13:46Mid-off. Running back over his shoulder.
13:48Oh, brilliant grab.
13:50Outstanding.
13:52Cameron Green's a tall man.
13:54He needed to be.
13:56Great catch running backwards.
13:58Looked to me like he just misjudged it slightly.
14:00A good ground late.
14:02With the big man up he goes.
14:07Good reach. Good grab.
14:11He's pretty happy with it as well.
14:13Big man. There he is.
14:15Signalling. He's taken the mark.
14:19Sounded good. Off the bat.
14:21And Tim David cannot get there.
14:29And drags it on to middle and off stump.
14:31And in the end.
14:33A convincing win for Australia.
14:37This is the winning moment.
14:39Shaun Abbott.
14:41The exact same way he was dismissed by Joppa Archer.
14:43Picks up his third wicket again.
14:45A wicket taking machine, Shaun Abbott.
