England Lose Warm-up Game By Just 12 Runs.

In an exciting 50 over match - the penultimate warm-up before the World Cup starts for England on Thursday - Steve Smith's innings for Oz was the clear difference between the two lineups.
The match went to the very last over and was most entertaining.
It is good to know that a number of England's better players had been rested - otherwise I might have been marginally concerned.
I was rather suspicious of the pitch which seemed to be showing uneven bounce - something which, Smith, at least, was able to cope with.
The final warm-up will be against Afghanistan on Monday.
