For a match that appeared over inside 10 overs, Australia's first ODI victory since September did not come easy.

The new-ball pair of Pat Cummins and Josh Hazzlewood  filleted England's top order wherein England lost its top five batsmen for just 8 Runs, but Chris Woakes 78(82 Balls 4x4 and 6x5)doughty rearguard and Adil Rashid's variations allowed the Australia Day ODI to creep into floodlit hours while Travis Head guided his team close to home.

A slimmer-than-expected Adelaide Oval crowd of 24,329 seemed destined to be filing out of the exits early when Cummins and Hazlewood combined to have Eoin Morgan's side a sickly 5 for 8 as the new ball swung and seamed, before Chris Woakes delivered his latest outstanding display of a series England had already won.

Chris Woakes' innings ensured that Australia needed at least one score of note to register their first ODI win since last year's India tour and only their second since January 2017, and it was Travis Head 96(107 Balls 4x15), returning to the top of the order in the absence of the injured Aaron Finch, who provided it.
