Well England flattered to deceive in reaching the quarter finals and were hammered by Sri Lanka. England batted first and struggled to hit the ball off the square. If Morgan hadnt got 4 lives when batting the Sri Lankan's would have had even less runs to chase. The only consolation is that a 10 wicket defeat would have still been the outcome.

At least Dilshan and Tharanga had to break sweat when knocking the runs off but that was down to the weather conditions rather than anything England bowled at them.

A crushing defeat for England by a far superior team, so there can be no complaints at the result.
