England suffered yet another humiliating defeat in the Cricket World Cup, putting them on the verge of early elimination. Despite winning the toss and choosing to bat, Jos Buttler’s team struggled to find any momentum. Wickets fell consistently and even Ben Stokes’ efforts (43 runs) couldn’t help England set a respectable total as they were dismissed for only 156 runs. Sri Lanka quickly lost two wickets in their reply, giving England a glimmer of hope, but Pathum Nissanka (77*) and Sadeera Samarawickrama (65*) formed a partnership of 137 runs to secure victory for Sri Lanka. England have now lost four out of their five matches in the World Cup and face difficult games against Australia, Pakistan, and India, leaving them at risk of an early exit.
