After winning the toss, Australia elected to bowl, a decision that seemed to prove costly as England posted a formidable total. Ben Duckett registered his third ODI hundred, a brilliant 165 off 143 balls, including 17 boundaries and three sixes. Duckett’s partnership with Joe Root was instrumental, as they shared a 153-run stand. Root contributed a solid 68 off 78 balls.

Australia’s bowling attack, however, fought back with determination. Ben Dwarshuis led the charge with three wickets, while Glenn Maxwell (1/58), Adam Zampa (2/64), and Marnus Labuschagne (2/41) combined to take five wickets.

In response, Australia had a shaky beginning, losing both Travis Head and captain Steve Smith within the first five overs. However, Matthew Short and Marnus Labuschagne steadied the ship with a 95-run partnership, with Short scoring 63 off 66 balls and Labuschagne contributing 47 off 45. The match turned in Australia’s favor thanks to an outstanding 146-run partnership between Alex Carey and Josh Inglis.

Alex Carey added 69 runs to the scoreboard, while Inglis, in his maiden ODI century, delivered a match-winning knock of 120* from 86 balls, hitting eight boundaries and six sixes.
