MARK WOOD will grit his teeth and hope for an Australia win this weekend as resurgent England look to secure a place in the next round of the T20 World Cup.
The reigning champions took a big step towards the Super 8 stage with a crushing victory over Oman, chasing down a meagre target of 48 in a tournament record of 19 deliveries – but their fate is not entirely in their own hands.
With net run-rate now favouring England, a positive result against Namibia today will take them to the cusp of qualification.
But Scotland can still edge them out if they conjure a huge upset against the Australians in the early hours of tomorrow morning UK time.
