England vs Australia 5th ODI, Live Score and Updates:
Hello and welcome to our coverage of the 5th ODI between England and Australia taking place at the Bristol County Ground in Bristol on Sunday.
This is the series decider as Australia took the first two wins while England managed to claw their way back in with two wins in the previous two fixtures. But now both teams will look to put their best foot forward as they hope to clinch the ODI series.
Both sides have made some changes to their starting 11. For Australia Mitchell Marsh, Alex Carey and Sean Abbott give way to the likes of Matthew Short, Cooper Connoly and Aaron Hardie into the side. For the hosts, it is the singular change where Jofra Archer is replaced by Olly Stone.
Cooper Connolly will make his ODI debut for the Australian side. The 21-year-old is a left-handed, batting all-rounder. He might not have much to go of, but it seems that Australia is confident in giving him the ODI debut.
The weather could prove to be a factor here in Bristol. According to Weather.com rain is expected at around the 4 pm (BST) mark which could interrupt or even shorten the game which is something both sides would need to look out for.
