England need a win here more than Australia as they have only one win carried forward from the group stage. Read about those technicalities here. Should be a good chase, join Shashwat, who should be in a few minutes before the clock strikes 2 in Kimberley to call the action.

Theo Wylie: It was a good day out on a turning deck, suited to left-arm spin. All others bowled exceptionally well by pinning down batters, allowing me to get stuck in. Weibgen hit the bad balls hard, hit the sweepers hard. That's what we learned this innings - be positive. (On his role change) It was a pretty surreal experience. I was getting wiggles all over my body while bowling pace, a coach told me to bowl spin and it came out nicely in Zimbabwe.

1:32pm Weibgen is the player of the innings, Dixon and the middle-order bats supported him and MacMillan put on the finishing touches to give Australia a great score. It was a tough start against good bowling. Morgan decked one back in to get Konstas in the first over but Dixon got stuck in with Weibgen and the two worked through a challenging period to put on 106. England tried a lot of options, finished with seven bowlers in fact, but couldn't pile on the pressure. Benkenstein dropped Weibgen in the 12th over, with the skipper on 20*, which cost 100 more runs just from him. Wylie was brilliant in the middle overs but the skipper was able to stitch three handy partnerships with the middle order, and Peake and MacMillan finished well. England had a few decent overs in the last ten but a couple of biggies took Australia up and over 260.

Thain to MacMillan, FOUR, Scuttles to the edge of the pitch and carves it over cover. Thain stands with his head down, MacMillan gives Australia the late runs which didn't seem on two overs ago. This shot had way too much going on. He stepped leg side first, double-bluff, then ran across and cut the hard-length ball over the infield and in the huge gap in the deep

Thain to MacMillan, SIX, Dances down and wallops it over long-off! That fielder was brought in after the last ball and MacMillan capitalised. It was a three-quarter length ball at the stumps, MacMillan danced down while making room and slashed with free arms

Deep third now back

Thain to MacMillan, FOUR, Lucky four to deep third. MacMillan made a bit too much room, stepped back last second, reached out and tried carving it. The length ball took the edge and went wide of the keeper

Thain to Peake, 1 run, Tries reversing, has a full 180-degree swing but the fullish ball angling outside off, fizzles off the toe behind square on the off side

Thain to Peake, FOUR, Pumped over mid-off, long-on scampers and dives to the right. Has he pulled this back? Jack it was, he was awfully close to the rope and parried it with the right hand inches within the cushion. But his left hand might've been in contact with the ball as he leapt above the cushion.

Thain to MacMillan, 1 run, MacMillan makes room as Thain starts with a full toss following the batter, swatted with limited timing to long-on. Charles Dagnall says England are trying to make him hit against the breeze

Four deep fielders on the leg side, just deep point on the off

Morgan to Peake, 1 run, Farhan starts going back before realising the ballooning ball actually landed a few feet in front of him. Stops it on the bounce in the end. Peake shuffled across and tried to scoop it on the up but didn't have the pace to work with
