Australia went 1-0 up in the Grey Ashes with a 44 run win in the first ODI in the best of five series.

We review the match and the crucial period when England sitting comfortable at 106/0 collapsed to 130/6. We also look ahead to the 2nd ODI on Monday July 7th.

We discuss the narrow defeat for the England Lions v Australia plus the Scotland v Australia match played on July 2nd as well as our usual round up of the O60s and O70s county championships.

And while we record a really tight finish was building up between Australia and the England Lions in their second game.
