Talking about the match, after having won the toss, Australia elected to bat first. The openers David Warner and Marcus Harris managed to add more than 50 runs before Warner walked back to the hut with 30 runs to his account. A fuller delivery from Stuart Broad which the southpaw opener had struggled with in the past sent him back to the pavilion.
