Sorry ???? Highlights not available.
What a win for the Aussies! England must be thrilled with this result. This is the highest total to be chased down in T20Is. Chasing a huge score, Warner and D’Arcy Short came out all guns blazing and got Australia off to a flying start. Both the left-handed batsmen scored their respective fifties and raced to 114 in eight overs.
Ish Sodhi removed the Australian captain and bowled a decent spell (4-0-35-1), but the runs kept leaking at the other end. Wheeler was taken to the cleaners and the nightmare came to a premature end as he was taken off the attack for bowling two above-waist no-balls. Finch performed the final rites by scoring 36 off just 14 balls.
