Commentary

That's all from our match center for today. Do join us tomorrow for more action as Afghanistan take on Namibia in the first match of the Super Sunday. Then we will have the big one in the evening, with India locking horns with New Zealand. Do not miss the action as the tournament inches closer to the business end. Until then, this is Bala and Sooryanarayan Sesha signing off. Good night! Stay safe!

Well then, we witnessed an absolute drubbing handed to Australia by England. The former's net run rate has taken a serious hit with this loss, which means they slid below South Africa to the third position in the table. This result has pushed open a number of opportunities for the rest of the teams in the group. With England almost certain to get through to the final four, South Africa, Australia, Sri Lanka and the West Indies will all be fighting it out for the one remaining spot. Aaron Finch's unit has some time to recover now and they would be trying to find some answers in the meantime.

England, though had a dominant start to the World Cup campaign, would be wary of the fact that their middle-order has hardly had an outing. The bowlers set up the game for them in all three matches and the top-order finished it off, hardly breaking a sweat. The top-order is bound to have a brittle start somewhere down the line and Morgan would hope that his middle-order comes to the party.

Eoin Morgan: Good start in the couple of games so far. It was a challenge adapting to the conditions away from home. But the bowlers did well in the couple of games. It was a good test against strong Australian side. We started off well with the ball and continued to be relentless. The bowlers again came up trumps. Depending on wicket, we have to go to the bowlers. We do have a couple of all-rounders. They came up trumps. They (openers) looked really good. Roy last match, winning the man of the match against Bangladesh. Then Buttler this match, starting off well and then did set up the chase. We are looking forward to the challenge. We play two games in five days, which is a challenge in itself. Looking forward to it.

Aaron Finch: Few wickets in the powerplay. We tried to hang in there and get something around 150. If we had tried to go harder, we could have been out for 80. It might have been defendable if a few things went our way. Chris Woakes, he is a brilliant exponent of swing. He bowled well. We were on the back foot early. You have to bowl them out. The bowlers did not have much of an option. I thought Buttler played a hell of an innings. We got off to a poor start, and then it just compounded. Boys will get some well-deserved rest now. Off to the match against Bangladesh next.

Now that is a message to the rest … England are the best team & most destructive … Whose going to stop them !?? Only #Pakistan look likely at this stage #T20WorldCup

Chris Jordan (Player of the Match): It was a great bowling effort from the boys again. We were just trying to back up our efforts from the first two games. We just wanted to continue that momentum. We were just trying to keep it simple and go with the rhythm of the game. We looked to assess the pitch and hold our lengths and it paid off. And then the way the batters chased it down was excellent. You just try to stick to your strengths as much as possible and keep improving on them while adding onto it. When there are so many players trying to make the team, you keep trying to work hard and improve and do well for the team. Everything else takes care of itself.

England win by 8 wickets with 50 balls remaining!

That's as convincing as a win can get. If England bowlers dominated Australia in the first half of the match, the English batters absolutely destroyed the Aussie bowling attack in the latter half. There was absolutely nowhere to hide as Jos Buttler went on a carnage, ably supported by Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow.

The target of 126 runs was never going to bother this formidable batting unit. The only hope for Australia was to get some quick wickets at the start, but Buttler and Roy made sure that it wasn't the case. They started a bit consciously but let loose once they spent some time in the middle. Jason Roy was dismissed for 22 at just over a run a ball, but Jos Buttler carried on, remaining 71 not out at the end. His innings included five fours and five monstrous sixes. Jonny Bairstow hit a couple of big ones, scoring 16 runs from just 11 deliveries.

The only bowler whose figures had a semblance of respect was Ashton Agar. 2.4 overs from him cost just 15 runs and included a wicket. His spinning partner Adam Zampa had a nightmare-ish outing, traveling over the fence four times and conceding 37 runs in 3 overs. None of the Australian quick bowlers looked threatening, unlike their England counterparts.

12.0

11.4 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, THAT IS THAT! THREE IN THREE FOR ENGLAND! Quick in pace on a full length outside off, Bairstow leans forward to ease it through the vacant point region and into the deep as the batters canter through for a single, much like they've cantered through the entire run chase. England beat Australia by 8 wickets and a whopping 50 deliveries to spare!

11.3 Adam Zampa to Jos Buttler, shapes for a lap around the corner before adjusting for a reverse-lap off a length towards third man as he levels the scores with a single.

11.2 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, low full toss on the pads, Bairstow brings his bat down and helps it around the corner before deep backward square leg slides to his right to stop the ball from reaching the ropes. Single it is!

11.1 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR BYES! BEATS EVERYONE! Sums up the night for Australia! Flighted full outside off, Bairstow looks to bring out a slog sweep but is beaten by the flight that then fools both the keeper and slip before tricking through to the ropes.

It is an absolute carnage from the England batters, and Adam Zampa has been at the receiving end of it. Just like that, they are almost a hit away from the target. Just seven more runs required now.

10.6 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, full and quick on off, Bairstow clears his front leg but his through his swing too early as he mistimes it over mid-wicket for a single with the sweeper running in.

10.5 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, quicker delivery on a good length on off, Bairstow makes a hint of room before prodding it towards point.

10.4 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, SIX MORE! Bairstow is hungry himself! Alas, there aren't enough runs for him to chase down! Flighted into a length on off, he sits on one knee to bring out a disdainful slog sweep that travels a country mile over mid-wicket. The spectators are the only fielders today!

10.3 Adam Zampa to Jonny Bairstow, SIX! AND NOW BAIRSTOW TAKES OFF! Flighted very full outside off, Bairstow sits low and butchers this one over long on as he clears the fence with sheer, brute force!

10.2 Adam Zampa to Jos Buttler, quicker and sliding into the leg-stump on a full length, Buttler takes a step down the tracking before whipping it off his wrists towards wide long on for a single.
