Lewis Gregory took 3-44 after the Somerset all-rounder made a valuable 40 in England’s 247.

Phil Salt top-scored for the home side with 60 — his maiden ODI fifty and James Vince made 56, with Hasan Ali taking 5-51 in what was the first ODI at Lord’s since England’s dramatic 2019 World Cup final win over New Zealand.

This series concludes with a day/nighter at Edgbaston on Tuesday.
