Zampa to Buttler, SIX, boom, smoke, and 2-0: England are one more win away from becoming the new T20I number one — so there are ways to win a game, and then there are ways to demolish the opposition. And trust Buttler to blast out souls, with a charge down the track and a full-blooded strike to pump it into the second tier downtown

Zampa to Moeen Ali, 1 run, threads it through the covers, and Mo brings the English one shot away ..

Zampa to Moeen Ali, FOUR, this one officially kills it. Inside-out slapping slice, big stride, using the width dished up outside off and then nailing it over extra cover

Zampa to Moeen Ali, SIX, this was coming. This really was coming. Mo was getting itchy, and he bites the bait, dancing down to the flight, getting right close and then tonking it high and into long-off .. this should kill it

Zampa to Morgan, no run, misses the sweep, gets struck high on the front pad around off and Australia review the LBW, because why not! The over the wicket angle would've taken it across as well because it clearly didn't turn back in enough. But again, it's reviewed, because why not! The impact: umpire's call. The line: missing off

Zampa to Morgan, FOUR, smokes down the ground .. hard swinging bludgeon this, plonking in front, murderous in hammering it down through the line
