England unchanged for ODI opener

England predictably named an unchanged team for today's first NatWest Series match against Australia at Lord's, following their 2-0 victory over West Indies.

On a cool and mostly cloudy morning, with the threat of rain, Michael Clarke unsurprisingly chose to bowl first for Australia.

The tourists also retained a winning team, fielding the same XI which trounced Essex in their final warm-up match at Chelmsford on Tuesday.
