  1. Aus 18-3

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Marcus Stoinis is the new man, wearing a long-sleeve top. That means it really must be cold. He never normally misses the opportunity to get the guns out.

  2. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    You can't blame Maxwell for getting out like that. He had to go swinging.

    WICKET

    Maxwell c Stokes b Woakes 8 (Aus 17-3)

    And the next one, please?

    Glenn Maxwell slaps Chris Woakes, but a miscue loops to Ben Stokes at mid-off. Australia are in tatters, Woakes has all three!

  4. Aus 17-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Woakes drifts down the leg side and is helped for four by Maxwell. After a single, Smith is struck, erm, midships.

  5. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    It doesn't matter how they come in a chase like this. Every run matters.

  6. Aus 10-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Even though Topley's radar wasn't spot on, taking 120 from the next 10 overs when the ball is hooping around is a big ask for the Aussies.

  7. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    This could be the perfect scenario for Glenn Maxwell. He has been light of runs of late but he has absolutely nothing to lose here.

    Just go out and play some shots. He could find some form before the World Cup.

  8. 6 runs

    Aus 9-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Too short, and Maxwell is up and running. Baseball thwack over mid-wicket.

  9. Aus 2-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    We really need to talk about Reece Topley's hair. He looks like he's running in with his pet poodle balanced on his head.

  10. Aus 2-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Australia are off the mark, but it barely matters. That was ace. England ended the first over in a 12-over chase with two slips.

  11. Aus 0-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Trimmer. Beats the outside edge.

  12. Aus 0-2

    Target 130 (12 overs)

    Defended to cover. Typical Smith.

  13. Aus 0-2

    Target 130

    Steve Smith...

    Marsh c Wood b Woakes 0 (Aus 0-2)

    It's another! Two in two! Chris Woakes is on a hat-trick!

    Mitchell Marsh is twisted up like a pretzel, getting a leading edge to the tumbling Mark Wood at short third.

    0-2!

    Take that, you Aussies!

    WICKET

    Finch c Brook b Woakes 0 (Aus 0-1)

    First ball! Aaron Finch can't buy a run.

    He's dancing at Chris Woakes, some gentle outswing, reaching to scoop towards deep point, where the hands of Harry Brook are waiting.

    See ya, skipper.

  16. It's a chilly, soggy evening in Canberra. Back here I'm worried about the dark clouds gathering. My washing is on the line. Good job it's only a 12-over chase. England will feel they have a decent target to protect. Chris Woakes has the ball.

  17. Aaron Finch and Glenn Maxwell are padded up and ready to go.

    The England team get into a huddle before marching onto the field. Can they seal a series clean-sweep?

    Here to guide you through Australia's reply is Stephan Shemilt.

  18. The Duckworth-Lewis-Stern calculation has nudged England's total up to 129 - which means Australia need 130 to win from 12 overs.

  19. Eng 112-2

    After all that England can only run one which means they reach 112-2 from their 12 overs.

    That total will be revised of course - we will bring you that figure as soon as we have it.

  20. Not out

    Ben Stokes had just got his bat back in the crease in time.

    Laughs all round. That was comical.
