England continue their T20 World Cup campaign with a showdown against Australia in Melbourne.
The firecracker encounter is set to be one of the biggest matches of the tournament with a huge crowd expected in the 100,000-capacity arena.
Captain Jos Buttler can lead his team into battle in high spirits following a confidence-boosting series win over the host nation during the warm-up matches.
England won the opening two T20 encounters with Australia before the third and final match was abandoned due to rain. The match was reduced to 12 overs each and Buttler opened the batting with 65 from 41 balls, not out, as his side racked up 112/2. Australia were on 30/3 with just over eight overs to reach the revised target of 130.
England fans will be excited to see the thrilling match, even though it may mean easing off work for the first couple of hours on Friday morning!
