England's Innings
Ben Duckett aur Will Jacks ne England ke liye ek zabardast shuruaat di, jisme Duckett ne 95 runs ki aggressive innings kheli. Dono left-handers ne Australia ke bowlers par zabardast prahar kiya, lekin jaise hi Duckett apne century ke kareeb aakar 95 par out hue, wahan se England ki innings ka collapse shuru ho gaya. Jo team ek bada score khada karne ki taraf badh rahi thi, wo achanak 315 par hi all out ho gayi, Australia ke spinners ke aage.
Australia ke spinners ne England ki batting ko puri tarah se tod diya, jisme Marnus Labuschagne ne 3 wickets liye aur Adam Zampa ne bhi 3-49 ke figures ke saath England ki innings ko rok diya. Matthew Short ne bhi apna pehla ODI wicket liya, aur Australia ne ek dramatic collapse me England ke 8 wickets 102 runs me gira diye, sirf 17.1 overs me.
Australia's Chase
Jab Australia ka turn aaya chase karne ka, unhone apni innings Travis Head ke aage chhod di. Head ne England ke bowlers par prahar karte hue 154 not out ki shandar century jodi, jo sirf 129 balls me bani. Unhone Marnus Labuschagne ke saath ek zabardast partnership banayi, jisme Labuschagne ne bhi 61 balls me 77* runs banaye.
Jahan ek taraf England ke openers me Ben Duckett ka aggressive style unhe 95 tak le gaya tha, wahin Travis Head ne apne innings ko rukne nahi diya. Head ka yeh knock Australia ke liye ek badi victory ka foundation bana. England ke bowlers ko koi chance nahi mila aur Australia ne sirf 44 overs me 317 runs chase kar liye.
Spinners Ka Kamaal
Yeh match jitna Travis Head ki shandar batting ke liye yaad rakha jayega, utna hi Australia ke spinners ke liye bhi. Marnus Labuschagne aur Adam Zampa ke behtareen bowling spells ne England ki batting line-up ko collapse karne me madad ki. England ke spin attack, led by Adil Rashid (jo apne 200 ODI wickets ke kareeb hain), Australia ke spinners ke impact ko match nahi kar paya.
Conclusion
Australia ke liye yeh win sirf series ka pehla match jeetne tak nahi tha, balki unhone England ko unke home ground par dominate karke apne strength ka darshan diya. Travis Head ke unbeaten 154* aur spinners ke shandar bowling se Australia ne series me 1-0 ki lead bana li.
