Live Cricket Score: England vs Australia, ICC Champions Trophy 2017

That's it for the day, gentlemen

The match has been called off. England have won the rain-hit encounter bvy 40 runs (DLS Method) and will go through to the semis as the only unbeaten side in the tournament. Australia, on the other hand have been eliminated. Guess what, the result also means that Bangladesh have qualified as the second side from Group A. All it took for England in the run chase was one fine partnership between Ben Stokes and Eoin Morgan. How often have we heard the story of this one match-winning partnership this week in Champions Trophy. Nonetheless, this stand by Eoin Morgan and Ben Stokes was one of audacity and brazen aggression, something that has been the definition of England's limited-overs unit following the 2015 World Cup.

England are likely to meet the winners of the match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka, in the semifinal, while Bangladesh will have to face the winners of the match between India and South Africa. This will happen only if rain doesn't abandon either of the matches. If there is rain, possibilities are quite a few.

A ton to remember

A four cut through the point region helps Ben Stokes bring up a fine century. This has been a fine innings from the all-rounder. Rain has stopped play with England on 240 for 4, way ahead of the par DLS score. Play seems unlikely to resume now. Such has been the nature of his knock, and especially his partnership with skipper Eoin Morgan, that the game has turned upside down between the two rain breaks and 34 overs of play in between.
