Bopara and Bell, are working full vulnerable groups Australia, England, dominate proceedings in the second one-day international
England's Ian Bell after reaching his fifty alongside Ravi Bopara
One day the kings of England took a step closer to wrest the crown from Australia after playing with them in the Oval.
Two to zero after two games is the perfect start, but yesterday six wicket victory with 26 balls to spare Australia suggests a victory is not even around the corner.
When Australia were once threatening, in-your-face game animals a day are now much more likely to turn around, enjoy a belly tickling and gladly accept a cookie.
England have men queuing up to take a leading role in the case of Ravi Bopara or Ian Bell, who cracked 82 and 75, respectively, or Steven Finn who was sensational with the ball again.
90-run partnership Bopara and Bell helped take the sting out of the run chase, but the truth is that England were never under any pressure, because the Australian team are not good enough for your application.
You may feel a little afflict a review of low birth weight by Eoin Morgan, which was canceled less than convincing evidence access point, but that does not change the bare facts.
England were far ahead of the Aussies in every department and with the rhythm player Pat Cummins returned home with a side strain and this tour lurches from bad to worse for them.
With the ball in England, was again first class, and this despite losing James Anderson before the game. It also remains doubtful for the match due to a groin injury on Wednesday.
His replacement, Jade Dernbach had not exert the same kind of pressure on his homeland, but Finn is a cut above again.
Fielding the ball off his own bowling stopped, scrambled, picked up and threw the ball on the stump that he could see while falling to the ground.
He batted and David Hussey missing the frame, run out by a long way and it summed up the difference between the parties.
Australia had limped to 128-4 when Shane Watson was out for 66, caught by the Finnish increasingly reliable the bowling of Graeme Swann, having been almost afraid to play a shot in anger.
Between 20 and 30 overs, Australia added just 24 runs as Watson and George Bailey of land to an end, which left them with too much acceleration to do.
Finn is out of stock, review progress, but even solo shifts "six of Brett Lee could lift Australia score above a disappointing 251-7.
England knew it had to be sensitive to claim victory, preferably with one of its top anchor and launch of three Bell was that man.
Bell and Bopara were good enough to take the heat of persecution and Morgan made the work was done with 43 not out.
COOKING delighted after England WIN
England captain Alastair Cook said: "It is good to overcome the line thought especially Ravi played very well, and Ian obviously too ..
A score of 250 is always obtainable here in the oval when you have wickets in hand and the hitters did their job.
"Our players also did well. Say the grip 25 to 35 credits, and it really took 20 to 30 strokes off your score."
The third one-day international is at Edgbaston on Wednesday.
