It has been a tournament to forget for England who will be playing largely for pride in Ahmedabad today when they face an Australian side closing in on a spot in the 2023 World Cup semi-finals.
After England won the toss and elected to field, it was a much-improved display from the bowling unit as Australia were bowled out for 286. Marbus Labuschagne top scored for Australia with 71, while Chris Woakes was the standout bowler as he claimed four wickets for 54 runs.

It’s fair to say that this World Cup has been an absolute disaster for defending champions England. Heading into the tournament as one of the favorites, they have secured just one win in their opening six games and have virtually no chance of making it out of the group stage.
Despite boasting a team packed with talent, it has been a real struggle for both the batting and bowling unit. The usually reliable Joe Root, Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler have looked horribly out of form, while bowlers Mark Wood and Chris Woakes have been put to the sword on numerous occasions.
To make things worse, they now face an Australian side who will be looking to win their final three group games and guarantee a place in the semi-finals. The Baggy Greens have won four games in a row and were sensational last time out as they secured a five-run victory over New Zealand. Travis Head hit a magnificent 109 from just 67 balls and opener David Warner was once again at his brutal best as he fired 81 from 65 deliveries.
England will also have to find a way to cope with spinner Adam Zampa who has taken 16 wickets in the tournament so far. The only downside for the Australians is the news that in-form all-rounder Mitch Marsh has suffered an injury and will miss the rest of the World Cup.
Line-ups
England: Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler (capt, wk), Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone, Chris Woakes, David Willey, Mark Wood, Adil Rashid
