England slumped to 59 for three inside 16 overs before rain stopped play in the day/night third one-day international against Australia at Edgbaston here yesterday.
Mitchell Johnson again proved a thorn in England’s side, the left-arm paceman taking one wicket for 20 runs in five overs and twice seeing close lbw decisions against Jonathan Trott overturned in the batsman’s favour.
When the umpires took the players off the field at 3:34pm local time, Trott was 28 not out and stand-in England captain Eoin Morgan five not out.
