Should be a cracker with 2 strong bowling lineups. Looking forward to the Finn V Cummins battle.
Aussies win toss and elect to field as rain is forcasted:
England team
AN Cook*, IR Bell, IJL Trott, RS Bopara, EJG Morgan, C Kieswetter†, TT Bresnan, GP Swann, SCJ Broad, ST Finn, JM Anderson
Australia team
DA Warner, SR Watson, GJ Bailey, MJ Clarke*, DJ Hussey, SPD Smith, MS Wade†, B Lee, CJ McKay, PJ Cummins, XJ Doherty
Eng V Aus - 1st 0DI

I can't believe the Aussies will come with the same team on Sunday. All Shane Watson's talk of England being a batsman short turn out 'topsy turvy.

So where are those Bairstow fans who rather have him over Morgan in the test team? i suggest you think twice before you disagree with me again.

Taylor > Bairstow

Bairstow will never cut it in tests....

I thought Bopara would probably replace Baistow for the SA series but this display has brought Morgan back into contention. He's clearly worked on his technique and stopped bobbing up and down at the crease in that strange way.
The next 4 ODI games may decide between them.
I do think Bairstow will be a test player one day but he'll have to wait for another chance.

and here begins the most pointless cricket series since the 2010 odi series between australia and england, which was equally as pointless. why did the ECB not scrap this series so there can be 4 tests against south africa? it's only morons who prefer one day rubbish anyway.

Jezzer I agree basically with your sentiments but a chance to beat Australia at any form of cricket is a pleasure.
