They're a very balanced side: Nasser

They need to have a Plan B: Nasser

England will play its first game on June 4th

England will play its first game in the 2024 T20 World Cup on June 4th against Scotland. They will be led by Jos Buttler under whom they successfully won the 2022 T20 World Cup which was held in Australia. “They’re a very balanced side, they’ve played in a lot of big games. We don’t talk enough about the IPL and how that obviously sets you up as a cricketer but also sets you up in big games. And under pressure and big crowds and that’s what you need going into a World Cup. So they’ve done all that they could do,” former English captain Nasser Hussain said in an interaction with Sky Sports.

England would want to put their performance in the ICC 2023 ODI CWC behind them. England finished 7th in the points table despite being one of the favourites heading into the tournament. “They’ve just got to be better than they were at that 50-over World Cup. They went into that with a lot of hope and it didn’t start well and they didn’t react well. So they need to have a Plan B. If we don’t start well, if things don’t go well, how do we react? How do we react to slower pitches? How do we react when better sides come up against us? But under Buttler and what they’ve got in this side, they’re in a real good place. They just got to go and do it (sic),” Hussain added.
