Hosts and pre-tournament favourites England are facing a must-win game as the stage is set for the India vs England ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 match at Edgbaston in Birmingham. India know that victory will seal their spot in the World Cup semi finals, but with two games remaining even after the one on Sunday, the pressure is definitely off Virat Kohli’s men.
Eoin Morgan and his England team, however, are facing the pressure, having lost their two previous games against Australia and Sri Lanka. They win, they stay alive but if they lose then it would be a golden opportunity for Pakistan, which can qualify for the last-four just by beating Bangladesh in its last league game.
