I also don't understand why the England captain took the fielding decision after winning the toss. Did he do his pitch related homework properly? As we have seen in most of the previous matches, the teams batting first got some extra advantage. So the England captain should have given a big target by batting first. England were capable of delivering big targets.
However, Australia's batsmen are also in good form. Australia will definitely try their best to give a big target on this pitch. I guess Australia will give a descent target of 180+ today. Since the pitch is batting friendly, the Australian team cannot stay in the safe zone in this match despite giving a big target. After 2 overs, Australia managed to collect 23 runs without losing any wicket. Matthew Short remains unbeaten with 20 runs.
Now it seems that England captain Phil Salt's fielding decision was a completely wrong decision. Batting first on this pitch gives a good advantage. England's bowlers are not able to make any advantage on this pitch.
6 overs of power play have just ended. England's bowlers have completely failed to bowl well in these 6 overs. England managed to take only one wicket. And Australia's two openers collected 86 runs in 6 overs, Australia is collecting more than 14 runs per over. Travis Head scored a half century off just 19 balls today. And Travis Head collected 59 runs off 23 balls. Experienced bowlers like Sam Curran have given away 30 runs in 1 over.
