Aaron Finch's century helped Australia reach a competitive total of 270 with 26 balls to spare in the 1st of the 5-match one day series held at Melbourne.
England, electing to bat first, lost Cook in the very first over. Joe Root also didn't contribute with the bat scoring just 3 off 23 balls. Ian Bell and Gary Ballance were looking to consolidate the innings when Bell was clean bowled off Doherty. Ballance and Morgan then fought out and shared a partnership of 83 runs. Glenn Maxwell, then, dismissed Morgan against the run of play which slowed down the run rate thereafter. Gary Ballance top scored with 79 runs and some lusty shots from Bresnan and Buttler at the end took England to a total of 269.
Australia got off to a flying start with Finch taking the initiative. The century run partnership turned the game completely in Australia's favour. Aaron Finch scored a brilliant century while Warner was dismissed for 65. Watson stayed no longer and was clean bowled off Jordan in the very next over. Then the captain and Finch consolidated the innings and took the score past 230 after which the latter was caught at third man. Tim Bresnan dismissed Clarke for 43. Bailey and Maxwell then steered Australia to victory.
Score:- England 269/7 (50) Australia 270/4 (45.4)
