126 (24.4/39)
England beat Australia by 186 runs
So, on a cold afternoon which turned into a freezing evening, England maintain their recent winning run at Lord's and are a win away from making this a near-perfect summer. With series wins over West Indies and Sri Lanka and just three losses to Australia in 6 white-ball games, the hosts would be keen to have the final say about who is bossing the game, come Sunday, 29th September, 2024, when the 5th and final ODI and also, the final game of England's summer of 2024 will be played. There is a lot of talk about bad weather in Bristol for Sunday but why talk about something which has not happened yet? Weather forecasts keep changing and let's hope for the same come Sunday. Australia would be equally desperate to win the ego battle and remember, they are about to enter into a summer of their own, filled with challenges and they would want to get there with confidence. If everything is fine, the first ball should be balled at 10 am GMT, but irrespective, we shall be in early in advance. So do tune in early and enjoy your Sunday along with us. Until then, you can catch the action from the Sri Lanka-New Zealand Test series, Ireland-South Africa series and also the India-Bangladesh series. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Victorious England captain, HARRY BROOK, IS ALSO ADJUDGED THE PLAYER OF THE MATCH. Brook asserts that even though England did not win the first two games, they took a lot of positives from those and then a lot of momentum came from the third ODI. On Ben Duckett, Harry says that he is a special player and as long as he is there in the middle, the score keeps ticking. On the batting approach, HB says that the plan was to basically target the boundary early in the over, to put pressure on the bowler. Praises his seamers for bowling consistently and not giving anything loose. Is happy to see Jofra Archer back at his best. Does not want to think too much about his own form and only wants to focus on winning the series in Bristol in the final match.
Australia's captain, MITCHELL MARSH, admits that Australia were a bit off the radar in this game. Details that England did not give them early wickets while batting and then, totally outplayed his team. Is at a loss of words when asked about how to best approach a target of 312 in 39 overs and ends up saying that Australia tried to come out hard but just kept losing wickets and that's cricket. Is eager to put this loss behind and come out charging afresh, for the decider on Sunday.
... THE PRESENTATION ...
Earlier in the day, Australia started really well after winning the toss, restricting England to 35/0 at the end of 8 overs in a truncated match. However, what followed next was total massacre as the next 31 overs went for 277 runs. Barring Will Jacks and Phil Salt, everyone had a go at the Aussie bowlers, scoring runs at will. Skipper Harry Brook (87) and Ben Duckett (63) scored half centuries while Liam Livingstone's 25-ball half century towards the end, with 7 sixes, which also included 28 runs in the last over from Mitchell Starc (6 0 6 6 6 4), was the icing on the cake. It was a forgettable game for Australia overall but this onslaught on their 'experienced' bowlers by an 'inexperienced' batting unit is something they will not be able to digest. Please stay tuned for the presentation...
England, on the other hand, would have shut many a critic, who was calling them an inexperienced unit before this series. Matthew Potts and Jofra Archer could not quite contain the Aussies with the new balls but it was Brydon Carse who started to pile on the pressure on Australia. Potts then got a change of ends and all of a sudden, England's so-called inexperienced bowling attack became unplayable. The duo shared combined figures of 14-2-74-7, which broke the back of Australia. Archer then returned supremely in his second spell, which read 4-0-13-2, wherein, with a kick-off delivery to Marnus Labuschagne, reminding us of his welcome to him as Smith's concussion substitute in the 2019 Ashes, followed by wickets of Marsh and Maxwell, showed that at last, the Archer which the whole of England and the world are waiting for, is at last, back.
Australia came out swinging, as expected, chasing a mammoth target of 313 in 39 overs. Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh got them off to a rollicking start, raising 68 in just 51 balls before the 52nd ball spelt doom for Head and Australia. It was just a wicket but that just opened the floodgates. England bowlers started hitting the right lengths and all of a sudden, the visitors were like cats in front of a car's headlights. From 68/0, Australia slipped to 96/6 - losing 6/28 in 43 balls. It was not any uncanny shot making but pure delight to watch the ball swing around like a hoop. And as it would be, only Head and Marsh crossed 20, with only two others reaching double figures.
Another irony is that when this series began, it was a clash between England's inexperience against Australia's experience. The hosts did not have too much to talk about in terms of their bowling ahead of this series, which was seen under pressure in all the previous matches. But in this one, in their second back-to-back do-or-die game, pace and swing did it for them. Yes, they had a massive cushion of 312 runs in 39 overs to defend but under lights, that pitch at Lord's became like a nightmare for the Aussies.
Complete annihilation. That is the best way to describe England's victory over Australia in this game. After winning 14 ODIs on the bounce after their loss to South Africa in the 2023 World Cup, Australia have now lost two on the bounce. Ironically, they won the first two games with a depleted side and when they got to their full strength, they have been beaten and beaten badly.

Adil Rashid To Josh Hazlewood OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! It also brings up the 50th wicket in ODIs for Adil Rashid against Australia. It is a straighter one, around leg stump, a tad short, which stays low as well. Josh Hazlewood rocks back to pull but is defeated by the lack of bounce and the ball hits the leg stump. ENGLAND WIN BY 186 RUNS AND LEVEL THE SERIES 2-2!

Matthew Potts To Adam Zampa OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Two in the over for Potts and he now has four as Zampa lasts 2 balls. A short ball, outside off, Adam Zampa looks to hoick it over the leg side but he is in no position to play that shot. The extra bounce does him in and he only manages to spoon it straight up in the air. Liam Livingstone runs a yard or so to his right to take his second catch of the evening. England a wicket away from levelling the series.

Matthew Potts To Alex Carey OUT!
OUT! LBW! Wonderful review from England and Potts has his third! On a good length, outside off, Alex Carey looked to whip it through the leg side but missed as the ball darted back in. Potts appealed but the umpire turned it down. Initially it looked high to the naked eye, but one or two England fielders, probably from the slip cordon, told Harry Brook that it did not look that high. Brook agreed and decided to take the review and sure enough, Ball Tracker projected it to be hitting the top of leg stump! No heroics for Carey tonight as he goes for an unlucky 13. POTTS IS ON A HATTRICK!

Matthew Potts To Sean Abbott OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT. And that is the end of that. Potts keeps it full again, outside off and this time, Abbott just tries to chip it over the infield. There is no attempt to heave but there is no power on the flick either. The shot is more or less the same, a no-look one but the ball just travels in the air. Not enough distance as Liam Livingstone rushes across to his right from mid on and completes the formalities. Pott's figures read 7-1-38-2.

Matthew Potts To Sean Abbott
SIX! PUMMELED! Shades of the shots from Abbott's 34-ball century in the 2023 Vitality Blast. That had come at The Oval, which is also in London, not too far from here. A length ball, outside off, Sean Abbott just plays a Martin Guptillesque shot, not looking at the ball and flicking it over mid-wicket. High and handsome it goes, into the stands.

Adil Rashid To Sean Abbott
An appeal for stumping and they are going upstairs. Seems to be a very close one this! Rashid dishes out a leg break, around off on a length and it turns away a bit as well. Abbott looks to drive, takes a half stride ahead but is beaten on the outside edge and also, by the turn. Jamie Smith collects the ball behind the stumps and takes the bails off and appeals for a stumping. And now, the TV umpire is summoned in to check if it is stumped. At first replay, it looked pretty much touch and go and seemed that his foot was just on the line, but the other side-on angle comes up and the umpire deems that Abbott got some part of his boot behind the popping crease. NOT OUT it is! The England players are shocked and so is the crowd, which replies with boos. Have to admit, very very surprised with that call. Abbott seems to be a lucky man though it is not going to matter much in this game.

Rashid with a leg slip in place, bowls it on a good length, on the stumps, Alex Carey whips it across on the back foot towards deep mid-wicket for a single.
Time for spin. Adil Rashid gets a go now. Will be a good test of his fingers after he went off the field post that dropped catch of Marnus Labuschagne. Most of the crowd has left the ground, most likely due to the cold conditions, as the temperature dips to 10 degrees Celsius. The ones remaining will really hope that England finish this off quickly. Don't think there is any neutral spectator in either England or Australia when the two play against one another but even the most positive of those would have probably bedded in for the night now, looking at the state of the game.

DRINKS BREAK. Seems like we are in for an early finish. Australia can put this score down to the total they are chasing but if they go back and check their dismissals, there is not much that most of the batters could have done. The ball is seaming a lot more under lights on this Lord's pitch and the Aussies are simply like a cat in front of a car's headlights. They were in a tremendous position before Head got out, but barring Smith's dismissal, cannot really fault any other batter. Sean Abbott walks in at number 8, replacing Glenn Maxwell. How do Australia play from here on? Do they try and bat out their 39 overs and literally get nothing apart from a bit of respect? Or do they throw caution to the wind and attack and see whether they can make a match out of this?

Archer gets his second and this just keeps getting worse for the Aussies now as they are 6 down even before 100 on the board. Jofra Archer tests Maxwell with a good length ball on the middle. It pitches and nips back in a fraction. Maxwell is in his crease and looks to heave it across the line but ends up getting the bottom edge to the keeper. Jamie Smith dives to his left and takes a good sharp catch. From 68/0, Australia have now slipped badly to 96/6.

OUT! TAKEN! England keeps the pressure on! Length ball outside off. Inglis drives away from the body with no proper foot movement, and chips it straight to short cover off the outer half of the bat. Now, not sure whether Will Jacks lost the ball in the lights or was just late to react but he jumped pretty late and almost at the last moment, plucked it out of thin air. Inglis departs for 8 (15) and Australia are in a bit of a pickle here.

Brydon Carse To Marnus Labuschagne
TOP EDGE, IN THE AIR, AND RASHID GRASSES IT! Dear, oh dear! A simple down gone begging as Rashid totally misjudged it. Short of a good length with an extra bit of bounce, on the stumps, Marnus Labuschagne miscues the pull shot off the top edge as he finds the ball getting heavier on him. It flies towards the deep backward square leg region where Adil Rashid spills a simple catch and the batters cross for a single. He is tentative to get to the ball, pauses just for a millisecond but eventually attempts to catch by diving. Gets his fingers at it, tumbles down and fails to sustain it in his hands.

Nicely bowled! This one tails back in from the good length, pitches around off and comes in a long, long way. Marnus Labuschagne sees it closely and hangs his bat in the air. It passes over the top of off for the keeper, Jamie Smith to collect.
Seems like Marnus Labuschagne is in a pool of trouble. The physio has come rushing to the middle to treat him. Some taping done and all good to go now.

Jofra Archer To Marnus Labuschagne
Ashes 2019 revisited! How many of you remember the second ball bowled by Jofra Archer to Marnus Labuschagne in the 2019 Ashes at Lord's, when the latter came in as a concussion substitute for Steven Smith? Just a ball ago, Archer had felled Smith with a bouncer, hitting him on the helmet and welcomed Labuschagne in a similar fashion, pinging him on the helmet. Memories revisited, 5 years later. Archer bowls this with sheer pace, banging it on a length outside off and getting it to come back in. The only difference this time though, is that Labuschagne sways away from the line of the ball, taking his head away from impact. But he still gets stung as the ball rears off a length and hits him somewhere between the thumb and forefinger of his right hand. He immediately drops his bat down and although he does not show any pain, the dropped bat is a good indicator of the same. Ouch.

Jofra Archer To Mitchell Marsh OUT!
OUT! BOWLED'EM! An absolute seed from Archer, through the defence of the Aussie skipper! Jofra Archer stays over the stumps, and attacks the line of the middle and the off stumps, it gets a bit of an away movement which is enough to deceive Marsh. He anticipates the ball to stay straight and hence, brings his bat vertically down to drive it down the ground and ends up playing inside the line of the ball. As a result, with a tinge of a deviation away from the bat, the ball whispers the outside edge and crashes into the pegs. Mitchell Marsh departs on 28 (34). Australia lose their third wicket and they slip from a comfortable 68/0 to 80/3. Marnus Labuschagne walks in at number 5, replacing his skipper.
Australia in deep trouble now, with the ball moving a bit extra under the lights.

Matthew Potts To Steven Smith OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Well, England right back on top in this game now. Another weird shot from Smith, putting it down to the mounting required rate. He steps away down the leg side and Matthew Potts follows him, bowling it on a length. Smith attempts an ambitious inside-out shot but is cramped for room. The ball nips back in a long way and takes a thin inside edge, on its way to the keeper, Jamie Smith. England appeal but Smith does not even wait for the umpire's decision. Big wicket, as he departs for just 5 (6) and Australia have now slipped from 68/0 to 75/2. 238 more needed from 174 balls.

And now, a rare shot from Smith. That is the pressure of the required rate. It is on a good length, outside off and Smith stays leg side of the ball and plays a weird-looking inside-out shot. Very unlike him, on just the second ball of his innings. Misses. Just 2 runs and a wicket from his second over after going for 19 in his opener for Carse.

Brydon Carse To Travis Head OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! Excellent comeback by Carse after a punishing opening over. He just sticks to the basics, keeping the line pretty straight, targetting the stumps. Travis Head gives himself some room to the leg side and attempts a massive swing and that brings Carse into business. He follows the policy of 'You miss, I hit' and to his joy, Head misses. The ball doesn't and the bails are scattered. So England strike immediately after Powerplay 1 as Australia's opening stand is finally broken on 68. Head departs for a well-made 34 (23). The visitors need another 245 from 182 balls.

TOP EDGE, BUT NOT TAKEN! Massive miscommunication and the bowler is not happy. Another quick short ball from Archer and Marsh instantaneously goes for the hook. Like the previous ball, he is hurried onto the shot and gets a massive top edge. The ball goes high in the air and two players go after it in the direction of fine leg - Jamie Smith, the keeper and Will Jacks, from first slip. Now, Jacks assumes that the keeper will go for it but strangely, Smith does not call at all. In the end, Jacks has to dive and eventually, he does not even get fingertips to it. A single taken with that let off.

Big deliberation from England. But they don't review. Mitch walks down the track and Matthew Potts bowls a sharp indipper from a length outside off. Marsh gets hit on the pads and then the ball goes off the bat towards mid off. The batters take a quick single and Harry Brook has a big debate with Jamie Smith. Two questions are asked - 1. Whether the ball hit the pad first or at all 2. Where was the impact. There is no definite answer and Brook does not want to waste a review. Good decision too. Ball Tracker shows the impact to be outside off.
