Australia has beaten England by five wickets in the final T20 International with three balls to spare at the Rose Bowl in Southampton, regaining the world number one ranking for the shortest form of the game.

Aaron Finch's team still had plenty to play for in Southampton, despite number two-ranked England entering the clash with an unassailable 2-0 series lead.

There were some tense moments in Australia's chase, including a mid-innings collapse from 1-70 to 5-100, but allrounders Mitch Marsh and Ashton Agar steadied to pass England's total of 6-145 with three balls to spare. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-09-09/australia-beats-england-in-3rd-t20-international/12643518
