England vs Australia 2018, 1st ODI: Five Talking Points

#3 David Willey's finishing touch

It was a strong batting performance from the left-hander

The composure from this 28-year-old cricketer is what saw England through at the end of it all. David Willey remained calm through the cacophony of the last few overs, managed to keep his wits about himself while wickets tumbled consistently and ultimately, took his team to victory with a strong effort with the willow.

The 35* off 41 deliveries that he scored on the day is the highest batting score for the left-hander in international and boy, did it come at the right time.

The hosts needed this victory after the shocker against Ireland a few days ago and it was Willey who managed to hand it to them and that too, in a precise and perfect manner.
