However, they put in another abysmal performance after batting first and getting bundled out for just <em>156<\/em>. A deflated England struggled in the field as <strong>Sri Lanka comfortably chased down the runs in just 25.4 overs<\/strong> to hand England their 4th loss in the tournament in 5 games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>England currently sit in 9th place out of the 10 teams<\/strong> at the World Cup. They <strong>can still technically qualify for the playoffs<\/strong> but a number of factors will have to come into play for this to happen. England <strong>will have to win all their games<\/strong> after this in order to make that happens and that seems highly unlikely given how poorly they have played.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, <strong>Jos Butler<\/strong> said <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>You get on the plane with high hopes and a belief we can challenge for the title so to sit here now after the three weeks which have been is a shock. It&#8217;s a shock to everyone. I&#8217;ll go back to the changing room and look at the players sat there and think, &#8216;how have we got ourselves into this position with the talent and the skill that&#8217;s in the room?&#8217; But it&#8217;s the position we&#8217;re in, it&#8217;s the reality of what&#8217;s happened over the last three weeks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Atherton Believes England Must Get New
