England crashed out of the Champions Trophy after just two matches with a nail-biting defeat to Afghanistan in Lahore.
Serious questions will now be asked of Jos Buttler’s position as captain, while Brendon McCullum‘s tenure as white-ball coach goes from bad to worse.
Despite Joe Root‘s masterful century almost dragging his side over the line, Ibrahim Zadran’s record-breaking 177 proved just enough to earn Jonathan Trott’s Afghanistan a famous win.
A positive late partnership from Jofra Archer and Jamie Overton looked to have salvaged England’s dignity, but Overton smacked a tempting delivery into Mohammad Nabi’s hands at long on with 17 required.
Having also been beaten by Australia on Saturday, England have lost 18 of their 25 ODIs since the start of the 2023 Cricket World Cup in India.
