England’s hopes of qualifying for the Cricket World Cup semi-finals were dealt a blow with a 64-run defeat against Australia at Lord’s
Australia look to be well positioned to push through and win the world cup after making beating England look like a pretty straightforward task. Finch seems to be doing well as captain, particularly now that he is back scoring runs also.
Any bowling attack with Starc in it is always going to look strong, and both Smith and Warner have returned from exile in fine form, fresh and ready to pill on the runs.
Who can stop the Australian team from winning this World Cup?
