At the National Stadium in Karachi, England is struggling against South Africa in Match 11 of the Champions Trophy 2025. After hardly putting 100 runs on the scoreboard, the team lost half of its players because the Proteas bowlers appeared to be hitting the batsmen everywhere.
The elimination of seasoned batter Joe Root encapsulated the Three Lions’ performance thus far in the match against the Proteas.
Root left after scoring 37 off 44 balls, further hurting England, after failing to read the ball’s line on a straight delivery from bowler,
Wiaan Mulder and choosing the incorrect stroke, which shook his stumps.
