Chasing a huge score of 294, England needed a good start but Josh Hazlewood ensured that the hosts were dented early in the innings. The CSK pacer got the first breakthrough for the visitors as he dismissed Jason Roy by grabbing a sensational catch off his own bowling. Josh Hazlewood bowled a full delivery as Jason Roy went for an expensive drive. The ball seamed off the deck which is why Roy failed to middle it. Despite the poor connection, the ball was travelling but Hazlewood was quick to react as he held onto a low one-handed stunner.

England could only manage to score 275/9 from 50 overs. Sam Billings scored a valiant ton (118), which went in vain as England fell short by 19 runs. Earlier in the day, Australia posted a total of 294 riding on the back of half-centuries by Mitchell Marsh (73) and Glenn Maxwell (77). The focus now shifts to the second ODI at the same venue where England will look to draw level while Aussies will look to wrap up the series with a game to go.
