World cup 2019
Second semi-final lacks buzz post India's exit
July 11 (CRICKETNMORE) The road that leads to the pavilion at the Edgbaston Cricket Stadium wore an almost deserted look as hosts England and Australia clashed in the second semi-final of the 2019 World Cup on Thursday. Team Indias ouster from the tournament on Wednesday seems to have impacted the overall interest in the showpiece event as well. After all, for the Indians who had booked tickets to check who would qualify and play India -- had Virat Kohli and boys made it to the final -- were no longer interested at the outcome of this game.
Even during the toss, there were plenty of vacant seats on display as England skipper Eoin Morgan and Australia captain Aaron Finch walked up to meet Ian Bishop and the match referee Ranjan Madugalle standing.
