Australia 286 (Labuschagne 71, Green 47, Woakes 4-54) beat England 253 by 33 runs. Malan 50, Stokes 64, Zampa 3-21.
It has concluded. Furthermore, this is not merely the most abysmal World Cup defense in the annals of global athletics.
England’s white-ball batting has changed drastically in eight years, as if a Hollywood sports analyst hijacked a sports Almanac and programmed the team’s Delorean for the 2015 World Cup. A branch line in space-time has destroyed the 2019 miracle and reinstated everlasting defeats.

England’s sixth loss in seven games (33 runs in Ahmedabad) handed Australia their fifth win in five and increased their advantage in the semi-finals.

With Adam Zampa’s 3 for 21 in ten overs, Australia’s 287 aim was never in doubt. Zampa topped the tournament wicket-charts. After another awful powerplay, England’s all-round great Joe Root played his worst inning in colored gear.
England and Australia Contests:
England and Australia are rarely compared without context, but here Australia triumphed owing to Marnus Labuschagne’s Test-tempo 71, hurting England’s chances of finishing in the top four, winning the #MoralAshes, and maybe qualifying for the 2025 Champions Trophy.

Ironically, only England’s World Cup campaign needs hobbits. The Netherlands are the next opponents and have an improbable opportunity to win the European Championship.
Pakistan may replicate their 1992 comeback in Kolkata, buoyed by their success in Bengaluru thanks to qudrat ka nizam.
Australia, meanwhile, advances towards the top-four position that England had presumed was rightfully theirs.
