After Drawing The T20 Series v Pakistan, Last Night It Was Australia.

England's 162 was never going to be enough at the Aegeas Bowl even after some great batting from Dawid Malan. 

Malan hit a rapid and critical 66.

The Aussies set to their task with relish and the wickets would not come for England's attack. With the visitors on 127 for 3 with 5 overs remaining - England were clearly doomed.

Then Rashid dismissed Smith and, well supported by Chris Jordan, Wood and Archer bowled sweetly to cut boundaries to a minimum but it was Tom Curran who did the business as he bowled overs 18 and 20.

In the final over, the Aussies needed 15 with Stoinis at the crease. The second ball was poor and disappeared for a terrific six but Curran was mighty in the remaining four balls and the Aussies fell short by two runs.

Whatta game of T20 cricket this was!
