"Disastrous Defence Of The Title": Ex-England Captain Tears Into Jos Buttler And Co For Poor Campaign At Cricket World Cup 2023
A star-studded England line-up has fallen well short of expectations in defence of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup title they famously won in 2019. Former captain Michael Atherton identifies what has gone wrong. England's title defence is on the brink of collapsing well short of the knockout stages at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023. A sixth defeat coming at the hands of arch-rivals Australia on Saturday, or in one of their other remaining matches against Netherlands and Bangladesh, will confirm what already seems most likely - England's title defence is over before it truly began.
