England white ball coach Matthew Mott has insisted his side will not "throw the baby out with the bathwater" after their shock loss to Ireland at the T20 World Cup and has backed his misfiring stars to come good in their crunch clash with rivals Australia on Friday.
England were beaten by five runs via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method after rain forced the game to a premature end during the 15th over of their chase. The defeat leaves England third in the group and level on points with Sri Lanka, Ireland and Australia, essentially meaning they cannot afford to lose another game if they are to qualify for the semi-finals.
But despite their lacklustre display against Ireland, Mott has ruled out making a number of changes for the game against Australia. "You can't reinvent yourself overnight," he told BBC Sport.
