A clinical performance this has been from Australia as they remained undefeated in this T20 World Cup. Beating England was always going to be a tough ask and Australia did so pretty comfortably in the end by 36 runs. Mitchell Marsh and his men have once again shown why they are a serious contender for the title after their poor show in the previous edition. A complete team performance shows them finishing on the positive side of the result. Meanwhile, England have been handed a big loss, which has put them in a tight spot in Group B. The reigning champions find themselves in the fourth spot and will need to win both their remaining matches--against Oman and Namibia by good margins to have a shot at making the Super Eight stages. Their bowlers were far from their best while the batting, too, fizzled out after a good partnership at the top between captain Jos Buttler and Phil Salt.

Australia beat England by 36 runs! It has been a clinical show with the ball for Australia as they register a second win of the tournament. England, after two matches, are winless and Jos Buttler and co need some thinking to do with two more matches remaining in the group stage. Australia can be mighty proud of this performance as they go on top of the Group B points table.

OUT! Pat Cummins has one more wicket and it is that of Liam Livingstone. The game is as good as done for England now with Australia closing in one a win. Liam Livingstone c Mitchell Starc b Pat Cummins 15(12)

OUT! England lose another wicket and Moeen Ali this time perishes in an attempt to clear the fence. Ali tried to hit a maximum off Pat Cummins and David Warner does well to take the catch with the sun in his eyes. Moeen Ali c David Warner b Pat Cummins 25(15)

OUT! Just when it seems England were having some momentum, Jonny Bairstow departs with Glenn Maxwell taking a good catch off Josh Hazlewood's bowling.

OUT! Australia have had the breakthrough and it is Adam Zampa, who accounts for Phil Salt off his first ball. Salt exposed his stumps and wanted to guide the ball but missed it with his stumps being hit. A big wicket and Australia will look to put more pressure here. Phil Salt b Adam Zampa 37(23)

England have had a decent start through Jos Buttler and Phil Salt and they have not lost a wicket while keeping the required run rate in check. England would need one of these two players to go big now.

Scotland batted first and smashed 90 runs without losing a wicket in 10 overs, a performance that England bowlers would not be proud of. Jos Buttler and co did not get a chance to bat and this match, against some top class Australian bowlers will be the first time that Buttler and co will be in action with the willow. England need to win this match to not get their first points but also potentially move to the top spot. A defeat on the other hand, can be fatal to their campaign. ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Full Schedule, Free PDF Download Online: Get Fixtures, Time Table With Match Timings in IST and Venue Details of Men's Twenty20 Cricket WC.
