**Durham, England** – England will be looking to salvage some pride as they face a confident Australian side in the crucial 3rd ODI at Chester-le-Street on Tuesday, September 24th. The hosts are currently trailing 0-2 in the 5-match series and must win to avoid falling further behind.
Despite having their chances in the first two ODIs, England have struggled against a dominant Australian team, who are currently on a 14-match winning streak in the format. England’s batting woes were evident in the second ODI where they were bowled out for 202 while chasing 271, resulting in a 68-run defeat.
England are under a transition period with several key players unavailable, including their full-time captain Jos Buttler. This has added pressure on stand-in captain Harry Brook, who will be hoping his team can turn the tide and put up a fight on home turf.
The match promises to be a thrilling encounter as Australia look to secure the series and take an unassailable lead, while England strive to avoid a heavy defeat.
