England Aim to Level Series Against Australia in Crucial 4th ODI

England vs Australia 4th ODI Live Updates: England Eye Series Leveler at Lord's

England will be aiming to level the ongoing five-match ODI series against Australia at 2-2 when the two teams clash in the fourth ODI at Lord's on Thursday. After suffering comprehensive defeats in the first two ODIs, England's batting finally came to the party in the third ODI, as they secured a rain-hit 46-run victory.

The hosts will be buoyed by their performance in the third ODI, where they posted a competitive total of 287/9, thanks to half-centuries from Dawid Malan and Liam Livingstone. Their bowlers then restricted Australia to 241/9, with David Willey and Adil Rashid claiming three wickets each.

Australia, on the other hand, will be looking to seal a series win away from home against their arch-rivals. The visitors have been in impressive form throughout the series, with their bowlers, led by Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood, proving to be a handful for the English batsmen.

However, the weather could play a significant role in the fourth ODI, with rain forecast for London. If the rain does intervene, it could potentially spoil the contest and force a no-result.

Key Players to Watch:

* England: Dawid Malan, Liam Livingstone, David Willey

* Australia: Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Steve Smith

* Date: Thursday, July 14, 2023
