Australia beat world champions England by 6 wickets in ODI series opener

David Warner scores at the top for Australia with 86, while Steve Smith and Travis Head also fire half-centuries. Australia chased down a winning target with 19 balls to spare. Dawid Malan scored a brilliant 134 for England, who only used three cricketers from their recent T20 World Cup victory on Sunday. England's triumph as double white-ball champions started in loss as Australia easily moved past to secure a six-wicket victory in the opening one-day international in Adelaide.

Dawid Malan shot an impressive 134 from 128 deliveries to assist a much-changed England score 287-9 from their 50 overs, having collapsed to 66-4 after being put into bat by the Aussies. Australia made an explosive beginning to their response, with top-scorer David Warner (86) and Travis Head (69) shooting a 147-run opening-wicket partnership inside the first 20 overs of their innings.
