it is Hazlewood who ends the innings with a yorker on middle stump, Finn backs away, and swings in vain
Australia vs England, Final at Perth, Feb 01 2015 - Ball by Ball Commentary
The Australians get their hands on the series trophy, and that is all from us for the moment. Good bye
Bailey: "Great to see Maxwell and Marsh rein in their natural games a bit and get us through. James can be a bit dramatic so I hope he is okay. We want to have as many guys in form as possible."
Morgan: "We could have kept them to a bit less. We had the best of the batting surface. Did not help ourselves with the shots we played. We keep grafting and learning as we go along, have made huge strides in the weeks we have been here. To have a place in the final we have played some good cricket."
Maxwell: "I have screwed it a few times before, it was nice to get through to that 40th over. I am just going to try and get past that three-figure mark. I was made aware of that."
Starc: "Have been working hard with Craig McDermott to improve every day. We bowled well as a unit through the series. Important to use the new ball and swing, I am not going to drop my pace trying to get it to swing."
Starc is the Man of the Series
Maxwell is the Man of the Match.
Australia take the triangular series with an emphatic, crushing win in the final. They haven't been beaten in the tournament, and have now won 11 of their previous 12 ODIs. Everything firing for them, barring George Bailey's bat. James Faulkner did go off the field feeling his side, after bowling only 2.3 overs, and Australia will hope he is not too bad.
Australia were 4 for 60, England 4 for 46. The difference: Glenn Maxwell, mainly... and er, Marsh, and Johnson, and Faulkner
Jono: "Leading wicket taker Glenn Maxwell... in Perth of all places! "
and almost the fifth again, Anderson down on his knees and connects on the reverse sweep, getting it just over backward point;s jump

almost the fifth, top-edged sweep swirls in the air for some time, but fine leg is deep
Steve: "This is like some kind of weird stalemate in chess . . . but slower"
that is the end of whatever Bopara was doing, skips down the track, isn't to the pitch, and mishits to extra cover, Maxwell has a chance to claim five now

pitches leg stump and carries down the leg side
ends with another bouncer, Finn goes down safely under it
back of a length ball pushed to covers
pushed straight to short mid on
bouncer at 128 kph, Finn ducks
turns a length ball from off to midwicket
worked in the air off the pad to deep square leg
reaches forward to defend on the off side
taps it to cover for a single
swept hard and straight to forward square leg
charges out and swings, thick edge goes on the bounce to short third man
flays at a full delivery and the edge travels wide of cover
pushes a length ball square on the off side
floated up full and down the leg side
This partnership is well on its way to save the Test nowhere
