    0.1 Henry strikes straightaway! Bowled him with a peach! A good length ball darted on the probing channel, nips back in sharply, and sneaks in through the gap between bat-pad as Smith plays off the front foot. Smith plays it late and tries to block it but misses the line and length there. Gone for a golden duck! 0/1
    1.3 Edged and taken by Latham! Short of a good length ball angling in on the off stump line, Duckett moves onto the back foot and plays inside the line of the ball. The ball straightens slightly after hitting the deck and kisses the outside edge of the bat. Latham takes a diving low catch to his left side and England lose their second wicket! 4/2
    1.6 Hello, Foulkes gets the big fish! A tad fuller length ball with plenty of seam movement inwards, pitching around the fourth stump line and jagged back in. Joe Root opens the face of the bat, moves towards the line of the ball and plays the front foot drive. The ball nips back in sharply and shatters the furniture! 5/3
    5.1 squares him up with a Jaffa! Full and straight ball pitching on the stumps and shapes away slightly on the probing channel, Bethell plays it down the wrong line and tries to defend on the track, and does not have any clue whatsoever as the ball knocks the off stump over! 10/4
    35.2 And Harry Brook has holed out to deep midwicket! Tossed up length ball around off, gets down on one knee and went for the big slog sweep, and did not time it well enough, maybe for the first time today while playing an attacking stroke. He did get the elevation but not the distance, finds the on-side sweeper fielder, who was standing a few yards inside. And that's the end of a wonderful world-class innings from the England skipper. 223/10
    8.3 Latham takes a blinder! Good length ball on the probing channel, a hint of late seam movement, and that's more than enough to tickle off the outside edge of Buttler as he plays it late around off. Beaten by the seam movement, the batter sends a difficult, low catch toward first slip. But Tom Latham is up to the challenge! He dives full-stretch to his right, following the line of the ball, and grabs it cleanly with one hand! 33/5
    11.3 tickles off the outside edge and Curran has to depart! Shortish delivery from around the wicket, pitching on the sixth stump line. Curran tries to get on top of the bounce and poke it through the point area, getting a faint edge as the ball deviates slightly after hitting the deck. Finally, a straightforward catch for Latham behind the stumps! 56/6
    25.5 leading edge, skewed into the covers! Mitchell leaps high, claws the ball down, fumbles it in the process but grabs it at the second attempt as he crashes to the turf! There's the breakthrough, to end a valiant knock from Overton. He just closed the face a moment too soon to the offcutter, and paid the price 143/7
    25.6 rocks back, cuts his first ball to point! Another Ashes combatant is turned to dust! Extra bounce from Duffy, Carse can't keep it down. Williamson's first major act of the international summer is to pluck the chance! 143/8
    29.6 Soft dismissal! A tad fuller length ball on middle and leg stump line, Rashid moves forward and plays with the straight bat, attempts to work it away across the line towards mid-on, plays the shot a bit too early and chips it to the right of short midwicket. Bracewell dives fully stretched to his right side and completes the catch. 166/9

    1.5 cleaned him up! There's the early wicket, and it's a beauty! Full and fast, fired into the pads, deflects into the timbers! Hint of swing right into the blockhole. Hard to combat that! 12/1
    4.2 second slip takes the edge! Seam-up from Wood, maybe takes a piece of the pitch too as the ball kicks into the splice of a hard-handed push, and Overton's bucket hands do the rest! Nope, think that was just a puff of normal dust. Either way, England are favourites now! Wood's first List A wicket since 2019! Gosh 24/3
    1.6 another beauty, and Williamson gets a first-baller! Oh my, this is on now! Carse hit his length outside off, got extra lift and outswing, the new batter was committed to a defensive prod, and the ball just curled into the edge and through to the keeper! Drama! That's Williamson's first golden duck in ODIs... 12/2

    11.2 fires in the fuller length, pinned on the pad! Carse has his third, with a wonderful wobble-seam from round the wicket that straightens off the deck and thuds into the shin! Latham doesn't even think about the review. England break a threatening stand 66/4
    26.4 Oh, dear! Bracewell is walking off! Massive wicket for England. Length ball plays with the straight bat and connects the inside part of the bat to mid-on, going for the tight single. Overton comes forward sprinting in and sends in an underarm throw at the bowler's end and hits the timber; Bracewell is well short of his ground, even though he made a desperate last attempt dive. 158/5
    34.4 Santner goes for the big heave again, this time miscues the stroke high in the air, and does not get enough distance against Rashid's wrong-un. Overton settles underneath the night sky at long off and gobbles it up. 207/6
