16m ago 17:14
34th over: England 198-5 (Moeen 6, Woakes 1) - target 298 I hope we all enjoyed that hydration
break. I managed four cans of Neck Oil during it. Behrendorff returns, fully hydrated, and is
lifted over midwicket for a couple by Vince. He did similar next ball, which is pulled in just
inside the boundary, as they run two more. Vince is looking pretty comfortable at the moment,
so he should be avoiding risks but he ignores this with a bad shot. Who are favourites now?
Updated at 5.14pm BST
17m ago 17:13
Wicket! England 197 5 Vince c Lyon b Behrendorff 64

That is certainly less than ideal. Behrendorff gets the ball back of a length, Vince tries to angle
down to third man, only achieving sending it down Lyon’s throat at a short third man.
25m ago 17:05
33rd over: England 191-4 (Moeen 5, Vince 59) - target 298 With England nudging the ball
around, Australia go with Zampa as the look to make the batsmen think a bit more. Moeen fails
to get the first two off the square, building a little pressure, which relieves slightly by whacking
one down to long on. Vince flashes a cut down to the boundary which is just held up by a
stunning dive from Richardson but it’s all in vain as they run four anyway. Kudos to
Richardson but it was a complete waste of time.
29m ago 17:01
32nd over: England 185-4 (Moeen 4, Vince 54) - target 298 Moeen tries to work Lyon through
the legside, but instead chips the ball straight over the bowler’s head. Vince comes down the
track to smash the ball out of the ground, sadly he completely misses it as it turns, bouncing
over middle stump and past Carey, down to the boundary for four byes. Carey will be annoyed
that he missed that stumping.
33m ago 16:57
31st over: England 180-4 (Moeen 3, Vince 54) - target 298 After the success of removing
Buttler, Coulter-Nile gets a pop at Moeen who works him for single, allowing Vince to pick up
his fifty next ball with a pull down to the boundary for one. He has played well, especially
when alongside his skipper. Vince just needs to keep his head down to lead England home.
Seven from the over without any boundaries, which shows how easy thingsUpdated
can be.
at 4.58pm BST
37m ago 16:53
30th over: England 173-4 (Moeen 1, Vince 49) - target 298 Buttler has set the platform now for
England with his 52 from 31 balls. Now Moeen and Vince have to take England through to the
40 over mark. Moeen gets off the mark with a drive down to long-off for a single from Lyon.
Vince fails to nudge himself to a merited 50 off this over. Still time. Updated at 4.53pm BST
40m ago 16:50
29th over: England 171-4 (Moeen 0, Vince 48) - target 298 Coulter-Nile is a relieved man as he
sees Vince on strike, earning two dots balls against the quieter batsman. Buttler faces the
fourth ball of the over, pushing it for two down to point. Fifty arrives for Buttler with a
smashing drive over over down to the boundary. Then he gets out.
41m ago 16:49
Wicket! England 171 4 Buttler c Khawaja b Coulter Nile 52

What a shame for England! Buttler gets to his fifty and then lobs the next ball from Coulter-Nile
up to midwicket.
45m ago 16:45
28th over: England 164-3 (Buttler 46, Vince 47) - target 298 Vince takes a more sedate
approach than Buttler, nudging one to get his skipper on strike. Buttler sees two turn sharply
into him, which he can only admire rather than get away. The next delivery jags back, hitting
on the thigh pad. Thanks to Buttler’s thwacking, the run rate is down to a run a ball, so there’s
not need to take too many risks.
49m ago 16:41
27th over: England 159-3 (Buttler 46, Vince 43) - target 298 A bit more speed for Australia as
Coulter-Nile lumbers in once more, starting with some filth outside off stick, allowing Buttler
to whack it for four to point. That reminded me of myself at my peak. The second one was less
reminiscent of my work, as Buttler creams a half-volley straight back over the bowler’s head
and the boundary rope for a beautiful six. Buttler then earns some good fortune with an edge
down to third man for four. It would have been four more if it wasn’t for a superb diving stop
from Maxwell at point to stop it. Next up is another maximum, as he hooks a bouncer over
square leg. Buttler has certainly picked up the pace of the pitch quickly. He ends the over with
another edge four past the wicketkeeper. Incredibly stuff from an incredible man.
53m ago 16:37
26th over: England 135-3 (Buttler 22, Vince 43) - target 298 Stoinis goes short to Buttler, who
gets on top of it and pulls it down to the square leg boundary between two fielders. What a
shot! He jabs one for three more through midwicket. Great running to turn the two into a three.
Finch fumbles a Buttler drive to mid-of to gift a single.
Scott Probst adds to out kit chat: “Surely we can’t talk about non-intimidating kit colours
without talking about the West Indies, who during World Series Cricket in Australia were
lumbered with ‘coral’ as a uniform colour in OD cricket, only to go on and terrify every
opponent team into jelly?”
1h ago 16:32
25th over: England 126-3 (Buttler 14, Vince 42 - target 298 Vince knows where the gaps are,
proving it by lifting Zampa over cover for a perfectly placed four. The rest of the over sees a few
nudges for ones and twos. Get the boundary early on, then the rest of the over looks after
itself.
Don’t ever say the Guardian cannot adapt to popular culture, as John Starbuck points out:
“After ploughing through the Guardian’s mountain of Saturday stuff I finally come to the CWC
supplement and, of course, Wallchart. This has the benefit of assigning Game of Thrones
characters to represent each team. One day, we’ll look back on all this with the fondness shown
by some to Panini sticker albums.”
Maybe this will help get Mrs Unwin into cricket.
1h ago 16:29
24th over: England 118-3 (Buttler 11, Vince 36) - target 298 Stoinis is still hard to get away, even
if he has swapped ends. A good challenge for the allrounder to ball at, arguably, the best one-
day batsman in the world. He will be looking to get Stoinis away but his first big shot is inside
edged for a single to mid-on.
Andrew Benton offers a slightly controversial view, he says: “I think Australia will walk this,
they are so much more resilient than England in whichever format - not a good omen for the
summer for England if they do.”
1h ago 16:26
23rd over: England 113-3 (Buttler 8, Vince 35) - target 298 Zampa returns, as they look to test
Buttler with spin, rather than the pace he prefers. He passes the test by rocking onto the back
foot and creaming the ball over deep midwicket for the first six of the innings. What a shot!
More of that, please, Jos.
Some kit communications. First, its OB Jato: “The Guardian, quite rightly, has an affinity
towards the colours Deep Blue and Canary Yellow too. While the colours are not intimidating
in nature, they are certainly aesthetically pleasing. As all know what either team is capable of
anyways and don’t need the jerseys to spell their threats for them, it’s a fair trade considering
the splendid colours by themselves!”
Griff Worthy adds: “Probably not the only person to write to you and say this, but if I am
then…
“You may bemoan the switch from a dark hue for England, but pale blue didn’t seem to do any
harm for a certain north west-based football team who intimidated (nearly) everything put in
front of them this season.”
Manchester City intimidated with far more than kit colour, this is true. Blue Moon all the way
here.
1h ago 16:21
22nd over: England 105-3 (Buttler 2, Vince 34) - target 298 Stokes’s departure brings Buttler to
the crease, he will be looking to show he can bring home the win, especially as he is captain
today. He cuts Lyon to get off the mark. This is the partnership that will decide the match, I
feel. England need a big one if they are to win it.
1h ago 16:17
Wicket! England 100 3 Stokes st Carey b Lyon, 20

A truly terrible shot from Stokes as he runs down the pitch and completely missing the ball
which is thrown a bit wider by Lyon, allowing Carey to finish the job behind the stumps. Not a
smart bit of cricket from Stokes.
1h ago 16:16
21st over: England 100-2 (Stokes 20, Vince 31) - target 298 Stoinis has found his line and length,
making him hard to attack at the moment. Stokes lifts one towards mid-on, Finch sprints in to
catch it and the ball goes through his hands while diving forward. He really should have taken
it, no wonder Stoinis looks so annoyed.
1h ago 16:11
20th over: England 97-2 (Stokes 18, Vince 30) - target 298 Lyon gets whipped through
midwicket by Vince dancing down the track. He certainly plays spin well and will be keen to
show today that he is in good touch if required during the tournament and he will almost not
be in the first choice XI. Stokes fails with an attempted reverse sweep as it bounces off his
glove, looping into the air for a chance but Smith just can’t get close enough, bottling a dive to
take the ball as it lands on the turf.
1h ago 16:08
19th over: England 90-2 (Stokes 16, Vince 25) - target 298 Relieved to be facing Stoinis, Stokes
tries to smack his first ball out of the ground, only succeeding in lifting one just over the
infield. Not a chance in any way but a poorly timed shot, certainly. Stokes is trying to get down
the pitch to the allrounder, one assumes to take out of built-up aggression, not that it brings
much reward.
Mark Nicholas, on commentary, explains that he isn’t a fan of the England kit change due to
the success in dark blue. I made a comment to a colleague earlier that although this new looks
good, it is in no way intimidating. Not that canary yellow scares many.
1h ago 16:04
18th over: England 85-2 (Stokes 12, Vince 24) - target 298 Stokes is avoiding trouble here
against Lyon by playing him off the back foot. A tense period of the game here. England just
aiming not to lose wickets.
Abhijato Sensarma has a better answer to the Moeen question, he explains: “‘Mohammad’ or
‘Md’ is the most prominent family name which people from the Islamic religion write before
their own name. In Moeen’s case, however, ‘Ali’ is actually the family name, while his first
name ‘Moeen’ is what we refer to the person by.

Perhaps because we refer to him as ‘Mo’, his first name is preferred on the broadcaster’s
scorecard. Usually this happens when two or more people share the same surname, but since
that’s not the case here, I think the decision is based on the aforementioned reason while also
reflecting an arbitrary choice.”
1h ago 16:00
17th over: England 80-2 (Stokes 8, Vince 23) - target 298 Not a time for risks for England, as
Stokes and Vince push the ball around to keep the scoreboard ticking over without
endangering the boundary rope.
At least I have one fan, thanks Phil Sawyer, who says: “Favourite cricketer Ian Austin? I like
you already. You can’t beat a bit of Bully. Although the correct answer for any Lancashire
supporter when asked what is your favourite match is, of course, Taunton 2011. Even if you
weren’t there and didn’t see a second of it.”
I wasn’t at Taunton but I was at Edgbaston, hence my choice.

2h ago 15:56
DRINKS! The pitch seems to be determining the action on the pitch at the Ageas Bowl right
now. It is looking a touch slow (until Richardson sends one through). England are just biding
their time as batsmen play themselves in, something Bairstow and Roy failed to do.
2h ago 15:54
16th over: England 75-2 (Stokes 4, Vince 22) - target 298 Lyon versus Stokes is an intriguing
battle. The Englishman gets a minor victory with a cut through cover and one through mid-off
later on, but they only get singles.
2h ago 15:52
15th over: England 72-2 (Stokes 2, Vince 21) - target 298 Vince flicks one off the pads to fine leg
for a lovely four, he really picked up the ball quickly on that one. He then fails to get the next
five deliveries off the square.
Jesse Linklater asks: “Just a quick question: why does sky list Moeen Ali as ‘Moeen’ as
opposed to ‘Ali’ on the batting list? Do they always show his first name? Am I just finally
noticing this?”
I think it is naming traditions and I am sure someone can explain it better. But essentially
Moeen would be a family name. Hopefully, I am not too ignorant on the matter.
2h ago 15:48
14th over: England 68-2 (Stokes 2, Vince 17) - target 298 Lyon is rewarded for his catch with his
opening over, probably just to have a dart at Stokes with the ball spinning away from the left-
hander. He calmly cuts the second ball for a single to get off strike. Could be a solid spell of
pushing the ball around here for singles. A half-hearted LBW shout goes up after one jags back
but no one really believes it. A reverse sweep hits Stokes on the thigh, another appeal goes up
but nothing is doing. Stokes needs to settle here.
2h ago 15:44
13th over: England 66-2 (Stokes 1, Vince 16) - target 298 The England batsmen are starting to
move around in the crease to Richardson, trying to make him think where he puts the ball and
counteract the bounce. It doesn’t work as Roy proves. Stokes is in at No 4, giving himself a long
time to bat. How will he cope?
2h ago 15:42
Wicket! England 65 2 Roy c Lyon b Richardson, 32

A ball rears up off a length from Richardson, surprising Roy who just pops it up to Lyon at
cover. The England opener had struggled with the pace of the pitch throughout.
2h ago 15:39
12th over: England 63-1 (Roy 31, Vince 15) - target 298 Vince comes down the pitch to the first
ball, which hits his pads, Zampa appeals but he is halfway down the track, so the umpire
shakes his head. Four singles come from the over.
Wood is still down to bat but seeing as this game is very fluid, if the No 11 is required, can
England just call on Root, Collingwood or a member of the crowd to fill the gap?
2h ago 15:35
11th over: England 59-1 (Roy 29, Vince 13) - target 298 Richardson joins the attack, starting
with a vicious one which bounces and speeds up off a length, much to Roy’s surprise as it
flashes past him. Similar happens to Vince later in the over, a sign there is some pace in this
pitch, contrary to previous claims.
2h ago 15:31
10th over: England 57-1 (Roy 28, Vince 12) - target 298 Zampa is not offering any pace to work
with, meaning Vince is trying to use his feet to het him away. Roy will be looking to get his eye
in against the spinner, too, but for now the two are keen on nudging him around for singles.
Well ... they were until Roy slog sweeps one into his own foot. Vince pushes one behind square
for four off the final ball, to end the Powerplay on a high.
2h ago 15:27
9th over: England 50-1 (Roy 26, Vince 7) - target 298 Vince flicks his first boundary after
Behrendorff strays onto the Hampshire man’s legs. His response is to go back of a length and
get the ball to flash past the outside edge. Roy brings up the 50 by knocking one off his hips.
2h ago 15:23
8th over: England 43-1 (Roy 24, Vince 2) - target 298 Zampa comes into the attack early on. He
will be looking to show his variations here, testing them in English conditions. He catches
Vince on the pads but it hits outside leg stump, so the umpire is not interested on any level. It’s
an impressive start from the spinner, only blemished by a couple of wides and dropping one
short outside off.
OB Jato points out: “The last time England were this modest in the Powerplay even without
losing a single wicket, it was 2015!” Updated at 3.31pm BST
2h ago 15:19
7th over: England 39-1 (Roy 24, Vince 0) - target 298 Bairstow slaps the ball at Roy, luckily his
teammate swerves out of the way, allowing the ball to speed along to the boundary. Bairstow is
looking more convincing now, lifting one over mid-on for another four. But is the caught out.
Time for Vince to show what he can do.
2h ago 15:18
Wicket! England 39 1 Bairstow c Warner, b Behrendorff 12

Consecutive boundaries are followed by Bairstow smashing one straight up in the air for
Warner to run round and claim.

2h ago 15:13
6th over: England 31-0 (Roy 24, Bairstow 4) - target 298 Mark Wood will have a scan later today
on his leg injury which forced him out of the attack during Australia’s innings. Hopefully all
will be fine. In the actual action, Roy whips one through midwicket. He is looking more
aggressive, moving down the pitch to the ball to give him some much-needed momentum as it
is not coming onto the bat, as he would like. Bairstow has a big LBW appeal against him but it
looks high. Australia decide to review, which from here looks surprising. Bairstow is smiling on
the pitch as he sees where it hit him. It is just clipping the bails but the call stays with the
umpire’s Not Out decision. Roy pulls the next ball for four, just out of the reach of a short fine
leg. Interesting over.
2h ago 15:07
5th over: England 22-0 (Roy 17, Bairstow 4) - target 298 The pitch does not seem to be true at
the moment, as Roy finds out when Behrendorff smashes a shot one into the ribs of the
England opener, who was too quick on it. He gains his revenge with a mistimed punt through
cover, which Stoinis dives over. Bairstow finds point with shot off the back foot, as he looks to
find the middle for the first time in his inning.
Ian Copestake says: “I am late to the game as I am on Boston time, but wanted to wish England
a fine reply, yourself a fine debut and Gary Naylor a fine birthday!” And a happy birthday to
anyone who is celebrating.
2h ago 15:03
4th over: England 19-0 (Roy 14, Bairstow 4) - target 298 Roy gets himself a few pre-over
painkillers after being hit earlier on the thumb, hopefully they don’t dull his senses too much
as he looks to whack the ball around. England happy to take their time here. Another drive gets
a thick edge down to third man from Roy but he is never in danger as he picks up a single, the
only run from Coulter-Nile’s over.
Scott Probst says: “We would have to consider that Smith and Warner have taken the rough
with the smooth today so far, would we not?”
I assume the emphasis is on the rough here.
3h ago 14:58
3rd over: England 18-0 (Roy 13, Bairstow 4) - target 298
Bairstow does not look too comfortable against the left arm of Behrendorff. He offers
something a touch different with his height and movement. He could be a tricky customer this
summer. Bairstow adds a couple more to his tally with a punch down the ground as he starts to
settle at the crease.

Favourite cricketer? Ian Austin
Favourite match? Lancs winning T20 at Edgbaston was right good fun
3h ago 14:55
2nd over: England 14-0 (Roy 12, Bairstow 1) - target 298
Bairstow gets England off the mark in the second over, sending one to square leg. Roy plays a
loose shot to secure his first boundary of the day, edging a cover drive down to third man. He
doubles his score with an inside edge for four down to fine leg. He then slaps one through
point for a third boundary of the over. That’s more like it.
3h ago 14:50
1st over: England 0-0 (Roy 0, Bairstow 0) - target 298
Behrendorff finds some early rhythm, forcing Roy onto the back foot in the first few deliveries,
including a ball into the ribs. He has found his line and length pretty early on here. Roy has not
looked too comfortable facing the left-armer so far, proven by that fact he should be out. The
fifth ball is angled to slip by Roy but Smith inexplicably drops the easiest cordon catch you will
ever see. It’s a maiden but should have been so much more.
Wasp says England are strong favourites here, so that’s good enough for me.Updated at 2.51pm BST

“Hello Will,” says John. “Welcome to the OBO. You’ll need to develop a thick skin, especially if
you run into technical difficulties, but the main thing is knowing your cricket and a wide range
of popular culture too. It’s not all bad and at times has the potential to be very good indeed.”
All abuse regarding my lack of knowledge can be sent to the email address above.
And we’re off!
3h ago 14:44
Good afternoon! Welcome to a first international cricket outing for myself. I think Australia are
a few short here, having fallen below the 300 milestone but their attack can certainly win this,
especially if England take their eye off the ball in what is essentially a friendly.
3h ago 14:27
To start me off on the old OBO ... here’s some reading for the break:

Bye!
2.20pm BST
3h ago 14:17
50th over: Australia 297-9 (Behrendorff 4) That was a good last over from Curran, which kept
Australia below 300. Smith struck one majestic six over long-off before his peculiar dismissal,
but there were only three runs from the over five deliveries. England need 298 to win.
3h ago 14:15
WICKET! Australia 297 9 Zampa run out 1

Adam Zampa is run out off the last delivery of the innings, having been sent back when he
turned for a second run. Updated at 2.17pm BST
3h ago 14:14
WICKET! Australia 296 8 Smith ct and b Curran 116

Steve Smith is caught and bowled off a yorker. I’ve never seen that before. I’m not sure it was
out, either. It looked like a clear bump ball, yet the third umpire Joel Wilson gave it out. The
strange thing is that Smith also thought it was out - when it went upstairs, he started to walk,
but then turned round after seeing the replay. If that had happened in a World Cup final it
might have sparked an international incident. In a warm-up game it doesn’t really matter, and
Smith walks off to decent applause after making a fine 116.

3h ago 14:08
49th over: Australia 288-7 (Smith 108, Behrendorff 4) Australia have scored 84 from the last
eight overs, and might yet sneak past 300.
“Shall we say Smith got a gritty hundred upon his return?” writes Marie Meyer, our sandpaper
correspondent.
3h ago 14:05
WICKET! Australia 283 7 Coulter Nile b Plunkett 1

Smith ramps Plunkett for six more before Coulter-Nile is cleaned up when he misses a heave
across the line. Four wickets for Plunkett.
3h ago 14:02
48th over: Australia 276-6 (Smith 101, Coulter-Nile 1) A century for Steve Smith! He moves
from 93 to 99 with a staggering shot, driving Ben Stokes high over backward point for six.
Stokes smiles at the sheer brilliance of his IPL mate. Smith works the next ball for a single to
reach an impressive 94-ball hundred. The achievement is greeted with boos, which is both
tedious and counter-productive.

4h ago 13:57
47th over: Australia 266-6 (Smith 93, Coulter-Nile 0) Plunkett has figures of 8-0-57-3.
4h ago 13:56
WICKET! Australia 266 6 Carey c Curran b Plunkett 30

Carey’s eye-catching cameo of 30 from 14 balls is ended by a brilliant diving catch from Curran.
Carey smacked Plunkett miles in the air towards short fine leg, where Curran briefly lost sight
of the ball before flying forward to take a spectacular two-handed catch.

Guardian
4h ago 13:50
46th over: Australia 257-5 (Smith 91, Carey 23) Carey survives another run-out chance, with
the bowler Curran missing the stumps this time. Actually, Carey might have been safe even
with a direct hit. Curran’s over disappears for 12, with Carey spanking the last delivery between
mid-off and extra cover for four. He has 23 from 11 balls.
4h ago 13:45
4h ago 13:45
45th over: Australia 245-5 (Smith 86, Carey 16) A poor short ball from Plunkett is helped round
the corner for four by Carey, who then chips lazily over mid-off four more. Carey has raced to
16 from 8 balls.
“Thanks for the coverage,” says Nick Butler. “What’s your take on Hales - correct decision or
totally over the top reaction? Are the other players really such snowflakes that they wouldn’t
be able to hit the ball properly if Hales was on the balcony? Feels like Morgan was looking for a
reason to get rid of him as didn’t like him, which is bordering on bullying in my opinion.”
I think that’s a reach, and also think Morgan is better than that.. That said, it’s hard to know
with things like this or the Kevin Pietersen case because we only have a certain amount of
information. My feeling is it was the correct decision, although I do have a lot of sympathy for
Hales.
4h ago 13:40
44th over: Australia 232-5 (Smith 84, Carey 6) Carey survives a run-out chance, with the
substitute Root missing the stumps from short cover. And now we have another England
injury! This is great, this. Dawson, backing up, is hit painfully on the right hand by a throw
from the deep and leaves the field straight away. It looks like a split rather than a break.
