Aiming to end a 60-year wait to win a major tournament, Thomas Tuchel’s men escaped humiliation and one of England’s worst ever World Cup exits thanks to their talismanic captain after Brian Cipenga’s early goal gave Congo an early lead.

But they recovered to post a total of 189-7, compiled through steady rainfall. Heavier rain came during the interval, bringing the covers on to the ground, with the match called off at 1915 GMT. For England, the weather denied them a chance to move on from a woeful start to their home international season following a Test series loss to New Zealand that ended two days and brought the retirement of red-ball captain Ben Stokes. On Tuesday, England white-ball skipper Harry Brook said he would accept the Test captaincy if offered, believing it is possible to captain in all three international formats simultaneously. On the field, in a repeat of a World Cup semifinal from earlier this year that India won, the tourists India lost Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan in the second
