Their only win in the tournament came against Bangladesh and Sunday's defeat at the hands of table-toppers India was their fourth successive loss. "It has been frustrating from a players' point of view because we know we're better than that." "We've played six games now and we've not been anywhere near where we wanted to be so it is disappointing from that point of view," Malan said. "I'm pretty sure I'll be done for that but I'd love the guys to play in that," Malan said. "Hopefully we can find the momentum and finish the World Cup on a high."

BENGALURU, Oct 26 (Reuters) - Sri Lanka restricted England to a below-par 156 all out in 33.2 overs in a must-win clash between the World Cup's stragglers on Thursday, with only Ben Stokes offering some resistance in a dismal batting display by the defending champions. Stokes (43) took the attack to Sri Lanka on a dry wicket at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium after England's middle-order collapsed in the face of some incisive bowling, but he holed out to Dushan Hemantha in the deep off Lahiru Kumara (3-35) in the 31st over. Sri Lanka earlier put the brakes on England's scoring as returning veteran Angelo Mathews (2-14) removed opener Dawid Malan (28) and helped run out Joe Root, before Kumara struck twice to leave the holders in trouble at 85-5. Sri Lanka, who came into the contest with the same record as England with three defeats in four matches, ran through the tail to lay the platform for a big upset.

DHARAMSALA, India, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Opener Dawid Malan smashed 140 and forged century-plus partnerships with Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root to help England rack up 364-9 against Bangladesh in their second match of the 50-overs World Cup on Tuesday. Malan combined with Bairstow in a 115-run opening stand to give England a terrific start after being put into bat by Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan. Even after Bairstow departed for 52, there was no respite for Bangladesh as Malan raised 151 runs with Root, whose 82 followed his 77 in the tournament opener against New Zealand. Malan clobbered five sixes and 16 fours in his 107-ball blitz before losing his off-stump to spinner Mahedi Hasan (4-71). England lost a clutch of wickets in quick successions and could not make the most of their final 10 overs.

Malan smashed a career-best 140 and forged century-plus partnerships with Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root to help England amass 364-9 and eventually canter to a comprehensive victory. "If I can score as many runs as I can and help contribute to wins, then hopefully, eventually people's opinions might change." Since June last year, Malan crossed the 50-mark nine times and converted six of them into hundreds. "Just hungry, hungry to play and to do well, hungry to score runs and win games of cricket," he said. "So, to get your opportunity and try and take it and enjoy it as long as it lasts."

"Good run, especially scoring some runs here at the home of cricket and leading into a World Cup. It was a bit slow, when they built pressure I found it hard to score," Malan said. We had to get off to a good start with the ball and we did that.”Butler said his team were in a good position for the World Cup. England's victory will give them a boost ahead of their World Cup title defence. The teams will then meet in the opening match of the 50-overs World Cup in India on Oct. 5.

Stokes, who last month reversed his retirement from ODI cricket, hammered a 124-ball 182 to record England's highest individual score in the 50-overs format, bettering Jason Roy's previous record of 180. "Coming back into the team after a while out, it's nice to come back and help the team," Stokes said. We weren't able to build partnerships," New Zealand captain Latham said. There's levels that we can keep achieving, there's more in the tank," England captain Buttler said. The series is crucial for both sides' preparations as they look ahead to next month's Cricket World Cup in India.

Nov 17 (Reuters) - Australia's top order fired in unison to secure a six-wicket win over England with Dawid Malan's career-best 134 for the tourists in vain as in the first one-day international on Thursday. David Willey's unbeaten 34 was the next highest score by an England batter as the tourists went on to post a decent 287-9 at the Adelaide Oval. A 147-run opening stand between David Warner (86) and Travis Head (69) effectively laid the platform for Australia's comprehensive victory. The teams move to Sydney for the second ODI on Saturday to be followed by the third and final match in Melbourne on Tuesday.
