Team News:

ENG:

Most likely England is not going to tinker their playing XI. But there are some chances of Mark Wood getting dropped in favour of Tom Curran or Jake Ball because he wasn’t in form from last few matches.
Jason Roy will be getting another chance despite failure in the first match, skipper Morgan confirms that.
No news so far regarding recovery of either Ben Stokes or Chris Woakes.

AUS:

There is some news in the Australian media that, Australia’s chief selector “Trevor Hohns” has given emphasis on strengthening the batting order. This means either D’Arcy Short or Alex Carey can make it to the playing XI in place of pacer Kane Richardson as they would be having other pace bowling option too. More chances are in favour of D’Arcy Short.
With good bowling performance in the first match, Michael Neser might retain his spot in the playing XI.
Ashton Agar was wicketless in the first ODI but scored a good 40 runs and expected to get picked for the second ODI as well, ahead of Nathan Lyon.
Billy Stanlake position remains a doubt as he suffered a cut in the opening match if doesn’t play he will be replaced by Jhye Richardson.

Jonny Bairstow, Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan (c), Jos Buttler (wk), Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, David Willey, Mark Wood/Tom Curran/Jake Ball
