In a pivotal T20 World Cup Group C match, England found a hero in Will Jacks, who smashed an unbeaten 53 to push the team to 202/7 against Italy.

Top-order batsmen Phil Salt, Jacob Bethell, Tom Banton, and Harry Brook stumbled, unable to convert their promising starts into substantial scores.

Jacks's late-innings blitzkrieg, which included four towering sixes and three boundaries in just 22 deliveries, proved decisive. Italy's Crishan Kalugamage was expensive with the ball but managed two wickets for 41 runs.
