Batting in their second innings, Australia were all out for 60 runs in their 29.2 overs. England were set a target of 124 runs to win the game. Chasing a paltry score, England got all out for 62 runs in 47 overs and lost the game by 61 runs. Converting from a 4-ball over to a 6-ball over, the game finished in 132 overs.
