Live scorecard and ball-by-ball details

Australia will aim to attack England with pace after winning the toss and bowling at the WACA. Defeat for England, who have named an unchanged side, would make it 10 in a row across all formats and equal their worst run.

After the loss in Sydney, Alastair Cook said he would consider his future as one-day captain but today admitted he was emotional and is now "desperate" to carry on in his current role.

Australia confirmed their XI yesterday once George Bailey, standing in for Michael Clarke as captain, confirmed he was fit after the hip problem which ruled him out of the Sydney match. Steven Smith and Matthew Wade come into the side for the rested David Warner and Brad Haddin.

Australia 1 Aaron Finch, 2 Shaun Marsh, 3 George Bailey (capt), 4 Steven Smith, 5 Glenn Maxwell, 6 Matthew Wade (wk), 7 Daniel Christian, 8 James Faulkner, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Nathan Coulter-Nile, 11 James Pattinson.

England 1 Alastair Cook (capt), 2 Ian Bell, 3 Ben Stokes, 4 Gary Ballace, 5 Eoin Morgan, 6 Ravi Bopara, 7 Jos Buttler (wk), 8 Tim Bresnan, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 Chris Jordan, 11 James Tredwell
