Arizona Tribune - Five great England-Australia ODIs

Below AFP Sport looks back at five memorable one-day international clashes between the arch-rivals:

1971: Birth of the one-day international

Cricket's inaugural ODI only came about after the scheduled third Ashes Test of the 1970/71 series in Melbourne was washed out without a ball bowled.

In an attempt to give local fans some cricket to watch, a limited-overs match was arranged instead.

England made 190 in 39.4 of their alloted 40 eight-ball overs, opener John Edrich top-scoring with 82, while Australia off-spinner Ashley Mallett took 3-34.

Australia reached their target comfortably, with 42 balls to spare after Ian Chappell made 60 in an innings where brother Greg was 22 not out at the finish of a five-wicket win.

None of the players knew it at the time, but they had all made history by appearing in the first ODI.

1975: Gilmour's great day

The 1975 World Cup semi-final in Leeds was a personal triumph for Australia's Gary Gilmour

The 23-year-old took 6-14 in a sensational display of left-arm swing bowling, with England all out for just 93.

Gilmour's work was far from over, however.

Australia collapsed in turn and were 39-6 after Yorkshire's Chris Old had taken three wickets on his Headingley home ground, when Gilmour came into bat. But his 28 not out and an unbroken stand with Doug Walters saw Australia into the final.

1987: Australia down old enemy to win the World Cup

Australia marked their first appearance in a men's World Cup final with a seven-run win over England at Kolkata's Eden Gardens.

David Boon made 75 in an Australia total of 253-5 in 50 overs.

England were well-placed in their chase at 135-2 when captain Mike Gatting tried to reverse sweep opposing skipper Allan Border's occasional left-arm spin only to get a top-edge and be caught behind for 41.

The innings then fell away, with England eight wickets down by the time Australia closed out a seven-run win.

In years to come, this victory would be seen as a turning point for an Australia side that had spent much of the 1980s in the doldrums.

2018: England run riot in Nottingham

Alex Hales and Jonny Bairstow both struck hundreds as England posted what was then the highest ODI total of 481-6 at a Trent Bridge ground where they had set the previous record two years earlier.

Hales made a brilliant 147 on home soil with Bairstow's 139 his fourth century in six ODI innings.

Jason Roy, Bairstow's opening partner, made 82 with England captain Eoin Morgan taking just 21 balls to reach fifty in a remarkable innings where Andrew Tye's nine wicketless overs cost exactly 100 runs.

Australia could only manage 239 in reply, leg-spinner Adil Rashid taking 4-47, as England won by a whopping 242 runs to take an unbeatable 3-0 lead in a five-match series.

2019: Local hero Woakes stars as England reach final

England swept into a World Cup final they would only win on boundary count-back after a Super Over with a commanding eight-wicket triumph over Australia.

Paceman Chris Woakes led the attack on his Edgbaston home ground with 3-20 as Australia were all out for 229 despite star batsman Steve Smith's 85.

Any thought this might still prove to be a tense semi-final was then swept away by Roy's blistering 85 before Joe Root (49 not out) and Morgan (45 not out) finished the job.
