Men's ODI WC: 'England Keep Getting Their Decisions Wrong', Says Nasser Hussain
Cricket World Cup: Former England captain Nasser Hussain was critical of Jos Buttler's side's decision-making as the defending champions fell to a record 229-run defeat to South Africa in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup league stage match at Wankhede Stadium.
Skipper Buttler decided to field in the sweltering heat after winning the toss in Mumbai. The decision backfired as England crumbled in the 22nd over for 170 in front of Proteas pace attack while chasing a mammoth 400-run target.
Hussain rued England's reliance on statistics instead of reading the conditions of the pitch on the day that led to their defeat on Saturday.
