What do England need to do to have a chance of reaching the Cricket World Cup semi-finals? We look at how Jos Buttler's side can still avoid a group-stage exit in India.
England’s Cricket World Cup hopes are hanging by a thread as they endure a nightmare defence of their title in India, although there is still a faint chance of them going on a run and making an unlikely late push for the semi-finals. The 2019 champions have lost four of their opening five matches - their latest an eight-wicket embarrassment against Sri Lanka - to sit ninth in the 10-team table on two points, with only the top four sides progressing beyond the group stage.
Should England shock Rohit Sharma's men and stay in the race to qualify, then their fixture on November 4 against Australia - who currently sit in fourth place on six points and have progressed from the group stage in every Cricket World Cup since 1996 - is likely to be a crucial clash, especially if the Black Caps were to beat them on the Saturday.
