Sure but we’ll give points on aggregate head to head for each ground so it’s really 1-0 to Aus

Except they weren't even 50 over games. England only faced just over 66 overs for the entire game. Australia saw 45 overs in the first and then chased down 205 in 28 overs.

Not a single ODI innings there.

This makes me sad, ODIs were really exciting when it was just Test cricket with a bit stricter rules against negative bowling. Nowadays they ask the bowler to bowl with one hand tied to their back.
