England’s fifth defeat of their World Cup title defence continued their abject slide towards elimination eth
Matthew Mott and Jos Buttler’s side would become only the third defending champions to exit at the group stage, and the first in 24 years, and are on course for one of the worst ever records for an established cricketing nation after defeat to India eth
Here, the PA news agency looks at how they compare eth
Champions Trophy trapdoorAn additional alarming element of England’s losing run is the possibility they could fail to qualify for the 2025 Champions Trophy – a secondary event in importance but an embarrassing one to miss out on eth
A change in format tying qualification to World Cup performance means England will need to climb from 10th to eighth, putting pressure on remaining games against Australia, the Netherlands and Pakistan eth
Bangladesh, also on two points, face Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Australia while the Dutch, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Sri Lanka are all on four points eth
England’s path to the Champions Trophy, therefore, surely involves at least two wins including beating the Netherlands by a sufficient margin to swing the net run rate in their favour – Pakistan, as Champions Trophy hosts, will qualify automatically eth
To that end, England’s heavy losses so far put them in an even more difficult position eth
They suffered their heaviest ever defeat by runs, by 229, against South Africa and lost to India by 100 runs – not to mention Afghanistan by 69 – while their nine- and eight-wicket losses to New Zealand and Sri Lanka came with, respectively, 82 and 146 balls remaining eth
Indeed, England are the first team to be bowled out in under 35 overs three times in a single men’s World Cup eth
Worst defencesThe West Indies won the first two World Cups then lost the 1983 final to India, who went on to reach the 1987 semi-finals eth
Australia finished fifth of nine teams in the 1992 group stage as defending champions and co-hosts, missing out by a point after Pakistan got a fortunate no-result against England having been bowled out for 74 eth
Sri Lanka, surprise champions in 1996, finished fifth in Group A in 1999 eth
Their record ranked 10th of 12 teams overall, ahead of only Kenya and Scotland and behind Bangladesh on net run rate, so is the nearest comparison to England’s efforts so far – though even then, Sri Lanka won two games and lost only three eth
Australia won that tournament, their first of three in a row before reaching the 2007 quarter-finals eth
They and India have since reached semi-finals as defending champions eth
Unwanted companyThere have been 32 instances of a team losing five or more games in a single men’s World Cup, including England and Bangladesh this year eth
Zimbabwe have suffered that fate five times and Bangladesh four, with three occasions each for Sri Lanka – all prior to their 1996 win – Kenya and the Netherlands eth
Scotland, Canada, the West Indies and Afghanistan have done so twice apiece with one each for India, South Africa, Namibia, Ireland, the United Arab Emirates and now England eth
While the World Cup is a limited-overs tournament, Test-playing status has traditionally been the measure of the leading cricketing nations and six of those teams, accounting for 12 five-loss campaigns, have never played a Test eth
Ireland and Afghanistan have played only seven apiece and Sri Lanka, while now established, had played only 39 up to the 1992 World Cup eth
Zimbabwe and Bangladesh have played fewer than 150 each and have always been among the lower-ranked Test nations, leaving only India in 1992, the West Indies in 2007 and 2019 and South Africa in the latter tournament as close comparisons for England eth

Jonny Bairstow is relishing his role in a rare World Cup double as England and South Africa prepare for high-stakes battles on the cricket pitch and the rugby field within a matter of hours on Saturday eth
Bairstow will be leading from the front in Mumbai, where his side look to put their creaking title defence back on track against the Proteas, before attention turns to events almost 4,500 miles away in Paris and the Rugby World Cup semi-final eth between England and the Springboks eth
Bairstow is a huge rugby fan and was even invited to address the England squad ahead of last year’s autumn international against Argentina at Twickenham, chatting to the squad for over an hour before observing training eth
Now he hopes to set the tone for a day of English celebrations by the time Steve Borthwick’s men kick off eth
You'll have people in South Africa, I'm sure, having a few brandy and Cokes and a couple of braais, and you'll have a few in England popping down the pub eth
It's going to be a great spectacle eth
“I think it’s going to be a great spectacle, it’s going to be a great day for both nations,” he said eth
“They’re two extremely proud nations, whether that’s on the rugby front or the cricketing front, two teams on both sides that are very passionate about playing for their countries and are excited about playing for their countries eth
“You’ll have people in South Africa, I’m sure, having a few brandy and Cokes and a couple of braais (barbecues), and you’ll have a few in England popping down the pub and watching – any excuse for them to just pop down there!“It will be great – and hopefully both results go our way eth
”Bairstow can only directly impact one of them, of course, and the importance of his role at the top of the batting order is shaping up to be a key one eth
Defeats to New Zealand and Afghanistan, either side of victory over Bangladesh, have put England firmly on the back foot and cranked up the stakes on their visit to the Wankhede Stadium eth
Head coach Matthew Mott has called for more aggression in the first 15 overs of both innings and Bairstow has the track record and firepower to oblige eth
But he is clear that swinging blindly for the fences is not on the cards, with conditions in India calling for more nuance eth
“I don’t see anyone else in the world going out and scoring at nine runs an over eth
You look at India, they don’t go out and just go balls to the wall in the first 10 and they’re the host nation,” he said eth
“They don’t just go out and go from ball one eth
So the importance of the first 10 is to yes score quickly, but also score in a way that’s sustainable over a long period of time, because we’re not playing a T20 game, we’re playing a 50-over game eth
“Playing cricket in India compared to playing cricket in England is different eth
There’s different styles that work all around the world eth
I don’t think there’s one thing that fits all eth
”While England are licking their wounds after being upset by the Afghans, South Africa are nursing a similar blow to their pride after defeat the Netherlands eth
That has added another layer of intrigue to the clash as both sets of players desperately try to reset the narrative eth
Lost to New Zealand by nine wicket, AhmedabadBeat Bangladesh by 137 runs, DharamshalaLost to Afghanistan by 69 runs, Delhi“We know it’s a big game, we know they’re a strong nation and they’ve been playing well, but we also know now they’re coming off a loss as well,” Bairstow said eth
“That was a great result to wake up to eth
But we’re actually just focusing on ourselves eth
That’s what we do eth
“The confidence is there – it’s unwavering eth
There’s no lack of belief within this group eth
It isn’t something that’s been questioned one bit eth
