Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has formally met his newest British counterpart for the first time.
Rishi Sunak became Britain's youngest prime minister in more than 200 years last month, replacing Liz Truss in the top job she held for just 49 days.
He is the third UK prime minister Mr Albanese has met since Labor won office in May.
The pair have been sitting next to each other during the G20 summit but had their first formal bilateral meeting in Bali on Wednesday after the official program wrapped up.
Ahead of the meeting, Mr Albanese said there wasn't much he hadn't informally discussed with Mr Sunak during the past two days.
Mr Albanese said this included "family background" and "history" while Mr Sunak added "a bit of cricket, bit of rugby".
Mr Sunak, who leads the Conservative Party, joked that Mr Albanese had even given him advice on elections.
They are expected to discuss the defence partnership between Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States (AUKUS) as well as trade arrangements during the meeting.
