Stokes showed his class and played with positive intent to put some pressure on the Aussies bowling line up. The all-rounder from England kept on ticking the scoreboard reaching his fifty off 75 balls. Marcus Stoinis got the breakthrough dismissing Buttler. Buttler and Stokes added 71 runs for the 5th wicket.

Stokes made 89 off 115 balls with 8 fours and 2 sixes. It was one of the best deliveries which dented England hopes of winning the match. Australia bowled out England for 221 in 44.4 overs. Starc took 4 for 43 while Behrendoff took 5 for 44 to give the Aussies a big 64 runs win.

The England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss and decided to field first. Australian opener Warner and Finch provided a solid foundation adding 123 runs for the opening wicket. Finch led from the front as he scored 100. Despite a flurry of wickets by England, Alex Carey quickfire 38 off 27 balls not out helped Australia post 285 for 7.

With the losses against Sri Lanka and Australia, England was on the brink of eliminating from the World Cup 2019. Their next matches were against India and New Zealand to qualify for the Semi-finals.
