Then both Labuschagne (21) and Alex Carey (10) fell to leg-spinner Adil Rashid in what was Australia\u2019s first one-day international against England since an eight-wicket defeat by the eventual champions in last year\u2019s World Cup semi-final at Edgbaston.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>news desk islamabad Australia\u2019s star batsman Steve Smith will undergo a fresh concussion test before the start of the second ODI against England following a bizarre incident that saw him ruled out of Friday\u2019s opener at Old Trafford.
