The two bottom-placed groups within the Points Table – England and Sri Lanka will face off in match no. 25 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 on the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Thursday. Both England and Sri Lanka have one win every – courtesy their wins over Bangladesh and Netherlands respectively.
Jos Buttler’s England are the defending world champions and have their backs towards the wall after their huge 229-run loss to South Africa of their final match in Mumbai. England are in a do-or-die state of affairs and have to win their remaining matches to remain in rivalry for a semifinal berth.
“I think it was down to just a different way, because we haven’t been playing well. And we wanted our best six batters to obviously try and score the runs, or rely on them to score the runs. And chasing 400, it’s always difficult. We ended up not bowling that well, and South Africa batting amazingly well,” England vice-captain Moeen Ali mentioned within the pre-match press convention in Bengaluru.
“So obviously it didn’t work. And I wouldn’t be surprised if it changes and we go back to what we’ve been doing for the last, I don’t know how many years. Yeah, it’s just one of those things that didn’t work on that day. Obviously, we took Mumbai wicket into consideration with that. It just didn’t work,” he added.
Both groups will look to make a few change with pacer Brydon Carse anticipated to interchange injured Reece Topley whereas skilled all-rounder Angelo Mathews is about to return to the Sri Lankan facet to interchange Chamika Karunaratne.
