ENG vs AUS Live Cricket Score

9.4 OUT! TAKEN! Josh Hazlewood strikes for Australia and provides the first breakthrough! Although, credits to Marnus Labuschagne for a sharp catch at point. Josh Hazlewood bowls a quicker one and stretches his length, full and around off, Phil Salt looks to drive it through the covers but the length is too full and he couldn't get his bat underneath the ball properly. Hence, ends up slicing it flat off the outer half of the bat towards Marnus Labuschagne stationed at point. He bends low and takes a sharp regulation catch. Phil Salt departs on 22 (17) and Hazlewood breaks the 48-run opening stand of England. 48/1

13.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Only one man was screaming which was echoing through Lord's. And it was the bowler, who is bowling for the first time in ODIs, since the 2023 World Cup final. He is overjoyed, no doubt while the rest of the professional outfit is treating it like everyday work - make a plan, bowl to that plan and reap dividends. Australia have been trying to get Jacks drive or punch square of the wicket on the off side by bowling a bit wide. This is on a length, wide of off and Will Jacks goes hard at it, slicing it. It is in the air and Marnus Labuschagne makes no mistake moving to his left at backward point. Jacks departs for 10 and England are 71/2 after 13.5 overs. 71/2
