World Cup 2023: End of an era, admits England's Moeen Ali after horror show

Firstpost  

England suffered their sixth defeat in seven matches in the 2023 Cricket World Cup after losing to Australia in Ahmedabad. The 2019 champions won just one match from seven outings and Moeen acknowledged they had “not been good enough.” World Cup 2023: News | Schedule | Results | Points table England suffered their sixth defeat in seven matches at the hands of Australia in Ahmedabad on Saturday. “The lack of runs, especially in a part of the world, where in India it can be nice to bat but it can be difficult, it’s probably a different approach, but we haven’t been good enough.” Over on the other end, the Chris Woakes-led bowling attack restricted Australia to 286 and contained India to 229/9, but England’s batters failed to capitalise each time. “But no positives really, we are bottom of the table with two points in a World Cup in which we expected to do better.” ‘Anything could happen’ Moeen tried to look to the future, recalling the 2015 World Cup debacle when Bangladesh knocked out Eoin Morgan’s England. “Like 2015, we were terrible in the World Cup and we started again, almost started fresh and it can be exciting going forward.” Many of England’s current stars including Buttler, Ben Stokes Dawid Malan and Joe Root are unlikely to feature in the 2027 edition to be hosted jointly by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
