Trans-Tasman Trophy, 2nd T20I: Australia vs England - Things which went wrong for the visitors

Australia v England - T20 Game 1

#4 Posting an inadequate total

Australia v England - T20 Game 1

England looked set for a total beyond 180 but they threw it away with the bat in the middle order and eventually ended up posting 155/9 in their quota of 20 overs.

The tourists were held to a below-par total by a superb Australian bowling performance after the home side opted to send the visitors in.

England lost 5 for 18 through their middle and lower order and that can be extended to 6 for 33 if we include the fall of England captain Eoin Morgan.

Australia did not face any problem while chasing down England's total as riding on Glenn Maxwell's blistering ton, they reached home with 9 balls to spare.
