Australia win the toss and bat
England 1 Jason Roy, 2 Alex Hales, 3 James Taylor, 4 Eoin Morgan (capt), 5 Ben Stokes, 6 Jonny Bairstow (wk), 7 Moeen Ali, 8 Adil Rashid, 9 David Willey, 10 Liam Plunkett, 11 Mark Wood
Australia 1 Aaron Finch, 2 Joe Burns, 3 Steven Smith (capt), 4 George Bailey, 5 Glenn Maxwell, 6 Mitchell Marsh, 7 Matthew Wade (wk), 8 Marcus Stoinis, 9 John Hastings, 10 James Pattinson, 11 Pat Cummins.
cricinfo: The wicket looks quite dry," says Smith, who hopes to take England's spinners out of the equation. Stoinis is in for the spin of Ashton Agar, on account of the conditions, while John Hastings replaces Mitchell Starc.
Eoin Morgan would have batted first. He announces two changes, Steven Finn has been rested, with Mark Wood taking his place. David Willey comes in for the injured Chris Woakes. Strange to rest Finn after his pivotal role in the third match, but Morgan stresses the desire to build a pool of players who can be called upon at any time.
