Nasser Hussain says this about team England
Former England cricketer Nasser Hussain believes Jos Buttler-led Team England are in a “good place” ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
England have been drawn in Group B with rivals Australia, Scotland, Namibia and Oman. The defending champions open their campaign against Scotland on the 4th. until June.
“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,” Hussain said.
“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,” he added.
