The 49th game of the current T20 World Cup 2024 takes place on Sunday, June 23, at the Kensington Oval in Barbados, between co-hosts the United States of America (USA) and defending champions England (ENG).
Chasing an 181-run target in their backyard, Jos Buttler & Co. started their Super Eight campaign on a good note by thrashing the West Indies. Nevertheless, the former champions lost by seven runs because they were unable to match Aiden Markram’s South Africa. Upon being requested to bat first, the Proteas scored 163/6 in total. The Three Lions, in reply, were on course to chase down the score but lost a few wickets in the middle and ultimately lost the match.
However, since the beginning of the Super Eight round, the debutants have not been able to get back to their winning ways despite an incredible group stage performance.
Aaron Jones & Co. lost by eighteen runs in their opening encounter against South Africa, as they could not chase down the total. After being bowled out for just 128 against the West Indies in their last match, the former champions took nine wickets off the opposition with ease.
