- 3rd ODI: England, 254-4, bt Australia, 304-7, by 46 runs (DLS)
- Captain unbeaten on 110 before bad weather ends match
On a chilly night at Chester-le-Street came an England performance to warm the cockles of the hardy home supporters. It was ended by late rain that swept in but through Harry Brook’s sublime unbeaten 110, this victory against Australia hinted at progress and clawed one back in a previously one-sided series.
The two teams travel to Lord’s for the fourth instalment on Friday with Australia, now 2-1 up, doubtless keen to seal matters at the ground that gave a number of them an earful during the Ashes last summer.
