3m ago 14.17 CEST 10th over: Australia 41-1 (Marsh 18, Smith 6) We’re going upstairs for a review! Steve Smith was given out on field, pinned lbw by Potts as he shuffled outside his off stump. Smith reviews right away with a disdainful T-sign. He’s right you know, decision overturned - the ball was sliding down and going over. Earlier in the over he pinged Potts through cover for four. It’s a decent duel between these two again. Share

7m ago 14.14 CEST 9th over: Australia 37-1 (Marsh 18, Smith 2) Carse goes full and Marsh drives him back down the ground for four. Runs starting to flow a bit more easily for the Aussies, they’ve had to scrap a bit so far. Share

12m ago 14.09 CEST 8th over: Australia 33-1 (Marsh 14, Smith 2) Archer into his fourth over. He goes full and Marsh whips off his pads in style, timing the absolute undercrackers off the ball as it races to the midwicket fence. Share

18m ago 14.03 CEST 7th over: Australia 26-1 (Marsh 8, Smith 1) Carse replaces Potts. More short stuff? You betcha. Marsh emits a low groan as a short one hits him in the mid-riff. The physio scampers on and is then sent back. Merely a flesh wound. Close! Marsh tries to force off the back foot but doesn’t connect, a leading edge then sees him gladly make it down the other end. Share

21m ago 14.00 CEST 6th over: Australia 25-1 (Marsh 7, Smith 1) Oooph. Archer has Smith hopping about at the crease and looking in all sorts of trouble. A series of short balls at the chest and then a slightly fuller delivery that squares Smith up completely. A nod of approval from Smudge as he survives the over. Share

25m ago 13.56 CEST 5th over: Australia 23-1 (Marsh 5, Smith 0) Marsh takes a risky single and Jofra Archer has a shy at the stumps… yikes! Marsh was a goner if the throw had hit. Smith covers up to Potts and stays on nought. Share

27m ago 13.54 CEST 4th over: Australia 21-1 (Marsh 3, Smith) Steve Smith is the new man. He’ll get a sighter from the non-strikers end to begin with. Potts got him with a snorter at Headingley, nipping one back into the off bail. I doubt Smith will have forgotten. Share Updated at 13.56 CEST

29m ago 13.51 CEST WICKET! Matthew Short c Rashid b Archer 14 (Australia 21-1) Short sits back and hooks Archer for SIX and then tries the shot again the very next ball… only to be caught by Adil Rashid on the boundary! Short hangs his head, three foot higher and it was another six but that slight flaw in execution has seen him perish.

31m ago 13.49 CEST 3rd over: Australia 12-0 (Short 7, Marsh 3) Probing over from Potts, hitting a good length and finding some nibble despite the blustery conditions. Share

39m ago 13.41 CEST 2nd over: Australia 10-0 (Short 6, Marsh 2) It will be Jofra Archer to open from the Lumley Castle end. Memories of Darren Gough ‘spooking’ Shane Watson come swirling back from my youth. Decent bounce from Archer, he’s up at 90mph in his first over, pushing the batters back into their crease with his pace. Share

42m ago 13.39 CEST 1st over: Australia 6-0 (Short 5, Marsh 1) Potts whizzes in with his dark King Edgar haircut standing out against the grey skies and biscuit coloured pitch. There looks to be decent carry through to the keeper, that’ll encourage the quicks. Short and Marsh get off the mark with glides wide of point for singles. Cut for four! Potts offers width off the final delivery and Short doesn’t miss out. Share

50m ago 13.31 CEST Here come the players, it looks mighty cold and breezy in Durham but thankfully fine at the moment. Matthew Potts will start with the new ball to Mitch Marsh and Mathew Short. Let’s play! Share

54m ago 13.26 CEST Eoin Morgan talks on Sky about how crucial it is for England to get something from this series, whether that be victories or big performances from individuals. Ideally both. He talks about not letting losing become a habit, even for a young side without much experience coming up against an Australian side who are World Champions and have won 14 (FOURTEEN) ODIs in a row.

1h ago 13.23 CEST Brydon Carse on playing at his home ground: Brydon Carse is back 🔙

Adam Zampa is unwell and so also misses out for Australia. Word from the England camp is that Reece Topley is also unwell and due to miss the rest of the series. Get well soon both. Share Updated at 13.23 CEST

1h ago 13.09 CEST England win the toss and will bowl first Mitch Marsh calls incorrectly once again “I’m beginning to wonder if that coin has a heads side mate” and Harry Brook wastes no time in choosing to bowl. He’ll have Jofra Archer at his disposal in place of Olly Stone. More team news to follow. Share
