He also said that England holds a slight advantage over Pakistan on Sunday because the Joss Buttler-led team has several players who have played in a World Cup final before.

Watson said, “The Indian openers were timid. In the end, it boils down to fear of failure. Which is never the right mindset when you are facing the best opposition, especially in T20 cricket where you have to take the game on. It was a really good batting surface. But both Rohit and Rahul went into a hole. England has been dominating the short formats in recent years because it is playing totally fearless cricket.” India scored just 38 in the first 6 overs whereas Englands scored 63.
