Champions Trophy: We Haven't Been Good Enough, Says Buttler After Afghanistan Knock Out England
ICC Champions Trophy: England captain Jos Buttler conceded that his team had 'not been good enough' after their eight-run defeat to Afghanistan knocked them out of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy here on Wednesday. In a high-pressure chase of 326 at the Gaddafi Stadium, Joe Root’s valiant 120 went in vain as Azmatullah Omarzai’s all-round brilliance scripted a historic Afghan victory.
The hero of the night was all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai, whose five-wicket haul and crucial 41 off 31 balls turned the match in his team’s favour. England, meanwhile, suffered their sixth consecutive ODI defeat—their worst streak since 2009—confirming their white-ball decline.
Buttler lamented England’s missed opportunities and said, "Disappointing to be knocked out of the tournament early. We had our chances in the game and we didn't take them. Root played an unbelievable innings and we needed one of the top six batters to stay with him. The last 10 overs got away from us a bit. Credit to Ibrahim; he played a fantastic innings. 113 off the last 10 pushed them up to a very good score on that pitch," said Buttler after the match.
