ICC World Cup 2019: England Thrash Australia to Reach First Final in 27 Years


An aggressive half-century from Jason Roy saw England inflict an eight-wicket defeat on Australia in the ICC World Cup 2019 semi-final at Edgbaston on Thursday (July 11).

Roy led the way with a 65-ball 85 that set the tone for the run chase and anything apart from an England win never looked in doubt after his blistering knock.

Roy and partner Jonny Bairstow started aggressively and the two had brought up their half-century stand by the end of 10 overs.

But things kicked into the next gear after the 15th over. Steve Smith came on to bowl as Australia experimented in search of a wicket.
