A nailbiter with a happy ending down at Nevil Road as England complete their largest-ever ODI chase of 264, despite a middle-order collapse, to level the series 6-6. Going into this match Australia had won 41 of their last 42 ODIs, and they looked shellshocked by the end. England still need to win one and remain unbeaten in the other (a tie or abandonment would suffice) to regain the Ashes, and it remains a massive ask, but they've got all the momentum right now.
