England’s disappointing race in CT 2025
England was already knocked out of the tournament after losing her second match with Afghanistan. It was their second direct defeat to Afghanistan to Odis after they lost them and in the 2023 World Cup.
In her latest group phase, England suffered a heavy defeat in South Africa’s hands, which also went to the upper group B. After they first decided to strike, Jos Buttler and his people were dismissed by only 179 in 38.2 additions.
None of the English blows achieved fifty because the South African bowlers were constantly gathering Wikets at regular intervals. Joe Root best evaluated England with 37 of 44 balls, while there were smaller contributions to other players.
Marco Jansen and Wiaan Mulder picked up three shots each, and the former picked up the first three Wickekets to put England in a deep trouble earlier. Mulder picked up the great Vitnjak Joe Root, which England put into further problems.
In response, South Africa has persecuted the goal despite losing Tristan Stubbs early. Razie Van der Dussen remained undefeated at 72 of 87 balls, while Heinrich Klaasen hit 64 of 56 balls to help Proteas Cruise to the goal within 29.1 Turns with only seven hickekets in his hand.
Joe Root shines again for England
As expected, Joe Root was one of the few great places for England in the 2025 champion trophy. Root appeared as the second highest runner in the team behind Ben Duckett with 225 runs in three matches on average 75 and a strike rate of 96.56.
The root hit one hundred and fifty during this tournament. While the other blows were playing in an ultra-aggressive mode, the root accumulated with ease on the path with a low risk approach.
