England and Australia Make Changes for Second ODI at Headingley

England and Australia are set to face off in the second ODI at Headingley, with both teams making changes to their lineups. England, who won the toss and elected to bowl first, have brought in Olly Stone to replace the rested Jofra Archer. Australia, meanwhile, have recalled Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Starc, and Sean Abbott after they missed the opening game due to illness.

England captain Harry Brook believes that the conditions at Headingley will favor his team's bowlers. "Usually Headingley has a bit in it at the start, especially with overcast conditions," he said.

Australia, on the other hand, will be looking to build on their dominant performance in the first match, where their spinners played a key role in England's collapse. Travis Head was the star of the show for Australia, scoring an unbeaten 154.

The teams will be as follows:

England:

1. Ben Duckett

2. Phil Salt

3. Will Jacks

4. Harry Brook (capt)

5. Jamie Smith (wk)

6. Liam Livingstone

7. Jacob Bethell

8. Brydon Carse

9. Olly Stone

10. Matthew Potts

11. Adil Rashid

Australia:

1. Travis Head

2. Matthew Short

3. Mitchell Marsh (capt)

4. Steven Smith

5. Marnus Labuschagne

6. Alex Carey (wk)

7. Glenn Maxwell

8. Aaron Hardie

9. Mitchell Starc

10. Adam Zampa

11. Josh Hazlewood

The match is expected to be a close contest, with both teams having a strong chance of victory.
