"[Luke] liked to take a few balls. So, my role at the time was just to get us off to a flyer. That probably stood me in good stead for batting with someone like Jos. We do have different styles.
"In my career I've always been the aggressor and I suppose I am the aggressor early on in this partnership. I feel like we both showcased it pretty well at The Oval the other night. I didn't get a flyer, but we sort of hung in and then Jos went and then we dovetailed nicely.
"It's good because we both communicate a lot out there and we realise that when one goes, we feed the strike to the other person, so there's no ego about it. It's whoever goes first. We just communicate and it sounds really simple, but I've batted with a lot of people and it's not always the case. So, it's nice when you have that connection with your partner."
Cummins on the money

Drinks: Australia 102 for 2
Australia are 102 for 2 at the 10-over drinks, having been 70 for 0 off 4.5. England have dragged it back a touch, but that powerplay may still cost them.
