England 182/5 (20/20 ov)
Australia 177/8 (20/20 ov)
England won by 5 runs
Australia have won the toss and inserted England in the T20I in Cardiff. Steven Smith, the Australia captain, admitted he was not sure what would be a decent score on a pitch that looked sluggish in the Women's T20I that was played on it earlier today.
There is no place in the side for James Vince - the top-scorer in England's domestic T20 competition this year - and Chris Woakes, who has had a hamstring problem of late and is not thought to quite be 100% just yet.
Moeen Ali returns to the side in place of Joe Root, batting at No. 3, meaning that the opening partnership of Alex Hales and Jason Roy is unchanged.
England: 1 Alex Hales, 2 Jason Roy, 3 Moeen Ali, 4 Eoin Morgan (capt), 5 Ben Stokes, 6 Jos Buttler (wk), 7 Sam Billings, 8 Adil Rashid, 9 David Willey, 10 Steven Finn, 11 Reece Topley.
Australia: 1 David Warner, 2 Shane Watson, 3 Steven Smith (capt), 4 Glenn Maxwell, 5 Mitchell Marsh, 6 Marcus Stoinis, 7 Matthew Wade (wk), 8 Nathan Coulter-Nile, 9 Mitchell Starc, 10 Cameron Boyce, 11 Pat Cummins.
