World Cup 2023 Points Table: Defending Champions England's Semi-final Hopes Dented After Big Loss vs South Africa
Things are not looking good for defending champions England in the Cricket World Cup 2023. The Jos Buttler-led side lost to South Africa by a big 229-run margin an ODI Cricket World Cup match. South Africa, who were being led by Aiden Markram on Saturday, scored 399/7 batting first. In reply, the England chase never took off and the defending champions were all out for just 170. This loss has dented England's semi-final chances. England are currently at the ninth spot among 10 teams with only two points from four matches.
