June 22, 20196 yr That was a poor batting display from England with the exception of Ben Stokes. It wasn't the type of wicket to try to hit sixes on. At least it makes things more interesting now regarding which four teams will reach the semi-finals. England seem to struggle on slow/turning wickets.
