HIGHLIGHTS

  • 18:13 (IST)

    OUT! Mark Wood into the attack and he has struck first up. Gets the edge of Finch's bat just outside off stump and Buttler takes an easy catch. Australia are 43/2. 

  • 18:12 (IST)

    A good over for Australia after a while as Finch and Stoinis both find the fence once each. Finch with an edge past slip while Stoinis was allowed to stand up tall and punch Woakes through the off side. Australia 43/1.

  • 17:58 (IST)

    FOUR! Nicely played by who Finch swivels across, rolls his wrists and pulls it behind square on the on-side for a boundary of Archer. Australia are 29/1 after 6 overs.

  • 17:45 (IST)

    OUT! England have struck early, with Archer going through the defenses of David Warner. Peach of a delivery that has knocked has completely left Warner exposed. He's gone for 6 and Australia are 13/1. 

  • 17:07 (IST)

    No Steve Smith for Australia after he took a knock on the head during a net session earlier. Marcus Stoinis replaces him at number 3. And Archer, Buttler and Wood return to ODIs for the first time since the World Cup final.

    Hello and welcome to the live blog for the first ODI between England and Australia in Manchester. After losing the T20I series 2-1, Australia will be hoping to win this series to level it up for the tour. Will they succeed against the ODI World Champs on their own backyard?

18:22 (IST)

Here's another look at Finch's dismissal. 

18:19 (IST)

Superb start for England to the ODI, after 10 overs Australia have lost both Finch and Warner and are 46/2. Marnus Labuschagne and Stoinis are in the middle as Australia look to rebuild here. 

18:13 (IST)

OUT! Mark Wood into the attack and he has struck first up. Gets the edge of Finch's bat just outside off stump and Buttler takes an easy catch. Australia are 43/2. 

18:12 (IST)

A good over for Australia after a while as Finch and Stoinis both find the fence once each. Finch with an edge past slip while Stoinis was allowed to stand up tall and punch Woakes through the off side. Australia 43/1.

18:03 (IST)

Another quiet over for England as Woakes concedes just the two runs. Stoinis and Finch are finding it hard to get a move on here. Shane Warne in commentary though is thinking of Ed Sheeran and his music. Australia 31/0.

FOUR! Nicely played by who Finch swivels across, rolls his wrists and pulls it behind square on the on-side for a boundary of Archer. Australia are 29/1 after 6 overs.

17:54 (IST)

Archer finishes a good over with another few zippy ones at the new man Stoinis. Woakes however from the other end has an expensive over after he allows Stoinis to clip him away off the hips for a boundary. After 5 overs, Australia are 25/1 with Finch and Stoinis in the middle after the departure of Warner. 

17:45 (IST)

OUT! England have struck early, with Archer going through the defenses of David Warner. Peach of a delivery that has knocked has completely left Warner exposed. He's gone for 6 and Australia are 13/1. 

17:44 (IST)

Economical and on the money in the third over from Chris Woakes once again. Just a single for Australia. 13/0

17:39 (IST)

Aaron Finch welcomes Jofra Archer to the attack with a crisp drive through mid off for a boundary, but Archer comes back with a few zippy deliveries to both the openers. Australia profit from a couple of wides too and move on to 12/0 after 2. 

17:34 (IST)

Quiet start to the game with Woakes on a good line and length right from the word go. Warner though is always quick between the wickets and steals a couple of twos. Australia 4/0. 

17:32 (IST)

Warner and Finch are at the crease. Warner is on strike. Woakes will open the attack. The players are out in the middle. Will we have a run-feast? Chris Woakes with the new ball, he has two slips in place.

17:26 (IST)

Aaron Finch - 'We might have actually batted first, looks like a good wicket. Steve Smith misses out, he got a knock on his head while practicing yesterday. Marcus Stoinis will bat at three. These games are a chance to improve a chance to keep winning, we have played some good ODI cricket over the last season. We're confident of moving in the right direction. Plenty of world-class players on show, should be a good series

17:26 (IST)

Eoin Morgan - 'Looks like a good wicket, could be a bit tacky, hopefully, we will restrict them to a low score. Nice to have the senior players from the World Cup group back. The wind shouldn't be a factor, we just need to play our game. They are a difficult side to beat, we should be at our best to beat them.

17:07 (IST)

No Steve Smith for Australia after he took a knock on the head during a net session earlier. Marcus Stoinis replaces him at number 3. And Archer, Buttler and Wood return to ODIs for the first time since the World Cup final.

16:52 (IST)

Not too far away from the toss now. Eoin Morgan and England, and Australia too are all planning on the T20 World Cup next year before the ODI World Cup. 

16:45 (IST)

Big knock incoming, skipper?

England vs Australia, 1st ODI Live Score, Old Trafford, Manchester: Wood Dismisses Finch, Australia Two Down

England vs Australia, 1st ODI in Manchester, Latest updates: OUT! Mark Wood into the attack and he has struck first up. Gets the edge of Finch's bat just outside off stump and Buttler takes an easy catch. Australia are 43/2.

Preview:

After beating the arch-rivals 2-1 in the three-match T20 series, England will now be up against Australia in the three-match ODI series. All the games will be played at Old Trafford in Manchester.

Australia will take note of the fact that they now have the momentum after winning the final T20 game and must believe that their lower-middle order can shake things when required. In the last game, the Aussies looked down and out before Mitchell Marsh dug deep and pulled the chase through for Australia. Even skipper Aaron Finch has said that Australia are guilty of shuffling Marsh too much.

"If you look at his(Mitchell) average it is probably 35 with the bat and maybe 36 with the ball, he is a good package. He was probably shuffled a bit," the skipper said.

Meanhwile England will be banking on Dawid Malan's superb form. Malan has been sensational so far. Such was his effort that he became number one in the ICC T20 Rankings for batsman."He (Malan) is in great form, but the 50-over format is a tough team to get into," Silverwood said on Wednesday.

"If the opportunity comes around I'm sure he'll grab it with both hands, but it may be a case of waiting for that opportunity because it is such a tough team to get into."

England team news: Regular skipper Eoin Morgan returns as the skipper after he took a break in the dead rubber against Australia. Moeen Ali was the stand-in skipper. Opener Jason Roy has also been added to the ODI squad.

Australia team news:  Australia's T20I and ODI teams are almost identical and the Aussies are expected to come into the game with same combination that they used at Ageas Bowl. Will Marnus Labuschagne ultimately get a chance to bat that needs to be seen.

England vs Australia 1st ODI can be affected by brief spells of showers. The maximum temperature can be 17°C while the minimum will be 11°C with considerable overcast weather.

England: Eoin Morgan (C), Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root,  Jos Buttler (wk), Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Sam Curran, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.
