ICC Champions Trophy 2017: England vs New Zealand, 5 Talking Points

#2 3 wickets in the space of 4 balls

England’s late collapse gave New Zealand a fighting chance

England could have amassed much more than 310. Jos Buttler was on fire with the bat at one end and all he needed was some support at the other end. However, the last three English batsmen tried to swing big and perished.

England lost Liam Plunkett on the last ball of the 49th over and then Mark Wood and Jake Ball on the second and third deliveries of the final over respectively. Morgan’s side had scored 80 runs in their final nine overs with Buttler scoring more than 50 of those.
