Liam Plunkett insists England's one-day specialists have no reason to be cowed by Australia's Ashes success. After surrendering the urn in a 4-0 series defeat, the tourists are hoping for a measure of revenge in the five-match ODI series. The likes of Joe Root, Moeen Ali, Jonny Bairstow and Chris Woakes all head into Sunday's first one-day international in Melbourne bearing the bruises of the Test reverse. "Australia are a good team and they're confident from the Ashes but it is a different squad and a different unit here," he said.
"A lot of our guys didn't play in the Ashes, so we're full of energy and full of beans. Some of them have been out here playing in the Big Bash, lads have been all over the world playing, so we're full of confidence and looking forward to the first game."
