What’s at stake for England at the T20 World Cup today?

  • England will face New Zealand in their final Super 8s game at the T20 World Cup on Friday.
  • England have already qualified for the T20 World Cup semi-finals following victories over Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
  • However, they are yet to secure top spot in the group, so it remains unclear who they will face in the final four.
  • If England beat New Zealand, they will win their group and likely face either India or West Indies in the semi-finals, but if they lose they will finish second, which will likely mean that they take on South Africa in the last four instead.
  • Friday’s game is also a chance for some of England’s players, including Jos Buttler, to play themselves into better form ahead of the semi-finals.
