England secured the Super Eight by cutting the equation in the group stage. After defeating the West Indies in the first match of the Super Eight, the current champions made the way to the semi-finals difficult by beating to the Proteas in the second match. But in the last and third match of the Super Eight, England confirmed the semi-finals by defeating the United States by 10 wickets.

Two English openers Jos Buttler and Phil Salt started batting from the start of chasing an easy target. England scored 60 runs in the powerplay with the bat of the two.
Australian pacer Pat Cummins got the first hat-trick in the current World Cup. It seemed to be the end, but English pace all-rounder Chris Jordan has been named next to Cummins. He made this feat by taking four wickets in five balls in the 19th over against the United States.
The United States were bowled out for just 115 runs in such a great bowling. England will have to score 116 runs to ease the path to the semi-finals.
