Second ODI: England v Australia

England captain Harry Brook won the toss and elected to field in the second one-day international against Australia at his Headingley home ground on Saturday.

England, looking to level this five-match series at 1-1 after a thumping seven-wicket loss at Trent Bridge on Thursday, made one change with fast bowler Olly Stone replacing rested express quick Jofra Archer.

World champions Australia, who made it 13 ODI wins in a row in Nottingham despite fielding a weakened team due to illness, recalled three senior players in fast bowlers Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc, as well as star all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, with pacemen Sean Abbott and Ben Dwarshuis, alongside Cameron Green, making way.

"It's always nice to try and put pressure on with the ball and try to chase them," said Yorkshire batsman Brook at the toss.

"Usually Headingley has a bit in it at the start, especially with overcast conditions."
