It all comes down to a decider at the County Ground in Bristol as England and Australia enter the final match of the five-game ODI series locked at two-all.
Australia won the first two matches before England have roared back into the series which has followed a similar script to last year’s unforgettable Ashes series – minus the controversy.
Australia has won the toss and chosen to bowl first, with Steve Smith leading the side in Mitchell Marsh’s absence — the incumbent skipper pulled up sore after Friday’s defeat.
West Australian young gun Cooper Connolly makes his ODI debut, with Aaron Hardie and Matt Short also sliding into the starting XI.
England XI
Phil Salt, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Harry Brook (c), Jamie Smith (wk), Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell, Brydon Carse, Matthew Potts, Olly Stone, Adil Rashid
Australia XI
Travis Head, Matthew Short, Steven Smith (c), Josh Inglis (wk), Marnus Labuschagne, Glenn Maxwell, Aaron Hardie, Cooper Connolly, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood
