A stellar performance by Josh Hazlewood has secured Australia a 19-run win in their first one-day international against England, his 3/26 from ensuring that the visitors defended their 8/294, made possible by a timely 126-run stand between Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell.
But alongside Sam Billings, in at number six, Bairstow finally found his groove and cleared the ropes four times as the partnership passed 100 and threatened to undo the earlier good work of Aaron Finch’s bowlers. Sure enough, it was Hazlewood again contributing to the breaking of that problematic stand, completing another fine diving snaffle at deep midwicket to give Zampa a third, the opener gone for 84, leaving 125 still to make in 89 deliveries.
Marsh was Archer’s third victim, leg before wicket for 73 from 100 balls in the 47th over, but by then his job was also done having steered the ship out of the earlier troubled waters. The captain was especially thrilled given Australia’s need for stability in the middle order.
