England have to make perfect decisions: Nasser

Nasser Hussain

Former skipper Nasser Hussain feels reliance on statistics rather than reading the conditions has led to England’s downfall in the ongoing World Cup.


England fell to a 229-run loss to South Africa on Saturday—their biggest in ODI cricket and their third in the ongoing tournament.


“England keep getting their decisions wrong. We got the toss and the balance of the side was wrong. The three changes in the squad moved England completely away from how they have been playing for years,” Hussain said on Sky Sports.

England made three changes for the game, replacing Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran and Chris Woakes with Ben Stokes, David Willey and Gus Atkinson.

“Woakes had no rhythm and on a flat pitch you leave him out and bring Stokes in, I agree with that decision. What I don’t like is the toss decision and reliance on stats.

“England need to get the decisions they’re making off the field right. The quality of performance was not good enough, but get your decision making right off the field.”
