Opener Phil Salt set the tone with a quick 22 runs off 27 balls, followed by Ben Duckett’s resilient innings of 63 runs. However, it was Harry Brooke’s masterful knock of 87 runs off 58 balls that anchored England’s innings. Jamie Smith and Liam Livingstone’s explosive contributions further boosted England’s total, with Livingstone’s unbeaten 62 off 27 balls being a standout performance.

In response, Australia started well with Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh’s solid partnership of 68 runs. Marsh’s 28 runs and Head’s 34 runs promised a competitive chase, but England’s bowlers, especially Mathew Potts and Brayden Carsey, dismantled Australia’s middle and lower order. With Potts taking 4 wickets and Carsey claiming 3, Australia’s innings crumbled, ending at 126 runs in 24.4 overs.

England’s comprehensive victory in the fourth ODI has leveled the series at 2-2, setting the stage for an exciting decider.
