England would have hoped for more runs after being 211-2 after 32 overs.
In the following over bowled by part-time spinner Marnus Labuschagne, Duckett misjudged the bounce of a googly that slowed up and lofted it back to the bowler to miss out on what would have been his second ODI century.
Labuschagne then removed stand-in captain Harry Brook for 39 off another caught and bowled, and that precipitated something of a collapse by England, which lost its final seven wickets for 83 runs - mostly while attempting to hit sixes over the short boundaries in Nottingham. There were two balls left in the allotted 50 overs.
Will Jacks hit 62 for his third half-century in eight ODIs, while Labuschagne had figures of 3-39 off six overs and lead spinner Adam Zampa had 3-49 off 10 overs in his 100th ODI.
