England play the Netherlands in Pune, needing a win to have any chance of qualification for the 2025 Champions Trophy.

Surely, England will win this one. An altogether disastrous World Cup defence has seen the defending champions win one and lose six of their seven matches this tournament. They are rock bottom, with the Netherlands one place above them with two wins to their name.

But despite the match being played between the two basement boys, it is far from a dead rubber, with the top eight teams from this World Cup qualifying for the Champions Trophy in 2025.

England, in all likelihood, will need to win both of their remaining matches to qualify. However, despite losing their last five games, England have been reluctant to make any changes, with Gus Atkinson, Harry Brook and Sam Curran all sitting out their recent defeats.

It appears, rather than sending in the kids to gain some experience, a decision has been made that those who made the mess will be left to clear it up, rather than dish out any further scars to careers that are in their early stages.

England v Netherlands key player to watch

Ben Stokes (England)

Scheduled to have knee surgery as soon as the World Cup ends, there are many people scratching their heads as to why, with England officially out of the competition, Stokes isn’t on the first plane home and getting surgery now rather than later.

However, Stokes has chosen to stay on, and all fingers will be crossed that he gets through the remainder of the competition without aggravating it further.
