Eoin Morgan delivered an inspired performance with a magnificent century in his first outing as one-day captain to rescue England from a potential nightmare against Australia in Sydney. Ian Bell was trapped lbw by Mitchell Starc with the first ball before the Australian bowler claimed James Taylor to leave England 0-2 in a disastrous start to this Tri Series clash. Joe Root didn't last for long either as he departed for just five after he was caught by Shane Watson in the slip off the bowling of Pat Cummins.
