There is nothing like a backs-to-the-wall, record-breaking victory over the old enemy to lift a team, and Alex Carey says the remarkable win over England in Lahore has turbo-charged belief within the Australian camp.

Then came Saturday's epic victory in which Australia, having been in trouble at 4-136, chased down England's 8-351 with five wickets and 15 balls to spare.
