Eoin Morgan's innings of 92 has led England to a three-wicket victory over Australia as England levelled the one-day international series at Headingley.
David Willey dismissed Joe Burns (2) early on before trapping Australia captain Steve Smith lbw for just five and tempting an edge from Aaron Finch (15) as the hosts started well to get the visitors at 30-3.
However, George Bailey and Glenn Maxwell shared a fourth-wicket stand of 137 to swing the balance in Australia's favour, before Maxwell was bowled for 85 off 64 balls by Moeen Ali.

Liam Plunkett then ousted Mitchell Marsh (17) and Bailey (75) in the same over before debutant Marcus Stoinis departed to Ali to leave Australia 215-7, but Matthew Wade's 50* off 26 balls and John Hastings (34*) led Australia to 299-7.
England's reply started in the worst possible fashion when Alex Hales was caught lbw by a Pat Cummins yorker, but they recovered well as Jason Roy and James Taylor took them to 73-1 off 10 overs.
The early rhythm was disrupted when Roy lobbed a simple chance to Finch on 36 before a acrobatic catch from Wade behind the stumps saw Taylor (41) removed by Marsh.

However, England captain Eoin Morgan led by example to drive the hosts towards victory with 92 from 92 balls before being caught spectacularly by Maxwell off Cummins.
Maxwell then pulled off another hold to remove Plunkett for 17, but Willey secured victory with a six off Hastings to clinch the win with 10 balls to spare and level the series at 2-2 ahead of the final match at Old Trafford on Sunday.
