Australia will aim for a comeback after bearing a 2-0 loss in the recently concluded T20 series against ODI World Champs. Cricket is a sport of uncertainty but stats favor England when it comes to facing Australia in the 50-overs game. In the past three years, England have dominated the Aussies in ODI cricket as they have won 10 out of 12 ODI games against Australia.


The final ODI will also see the return of hard-hitting in-form batsman Jason Roy who was ruled out of the T20 International series after sustaining an injury. Before the game, Aussie skipper Aaron Finch also confirmed Mathew Wade is getting replaced by Alex Carey to keep wickets in today's game. Meanwhile, England will miss the service of national hero Ben Stokes and Liam Plunkett.
