Two high quality hundreds were notched in this match, by Eoin Morgan and David Warner, while no other batsmen passed 40. The difference between Australia and England was that Warner's 127 at the top of the order set the tone for the hosts, whereas Morgan's 121 served merely to add a veneer of respectability to the tourists' tally after their top order had been perforated by the day's other major performer, Mitchell Starc.
Ian Bell and James Taylor barely had time to adjust their eyes to a brilliantly sunny Sydney afternoon before Starc's fast new-ball inswing pinned both lbw, but Morgan marshalled the lower order to drive the visitors to a total they could not have contemplated at a forlorn 5 for 69.
