And it is up to us to win these next three games and take that narrative away, because we have not performed.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/31\/16\/77232523-0-image-a-1_1698769951813.jpg\" height=\"426\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Dawid Malan vows England won\u2019t go through motions in last three matches at the World Cup\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/31\/16\/77232827-0-image-a-3_1698770147554.jpg\" height=\"798\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pressure is mounting on England head coach\u00a0Matthew Mott after a disastrous World Cup<\/p>\n<p>England may yet go into the match against Australia with their fate already sealed. If New Zealand beat South Africa on Wednesday, and Afghanistan beat the Netherlands on Friday, their mathematical elimination will be confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>But a top-eight finish in the 10-team league will ensure qualification for the 2025 Champions Trophy in Pakistan, and there is also the carrot of next year\u2019s T20 World Cup defence in the Caribbean and the USA.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018People\u2019s jobs and players\u2019 careers are being scrutinised,\u2019 said Malan. \u2018We have a hell of a lot to play for. It\u2019s definitely not going to be a situation where we just go through the motions.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Like every other member of the dressing-room these past few weeks, Malan was at a loss to explain England\u2019s ineptitude, though he played down former captain Michael Vaughan\u2019s suggestion that discord had been sown by the mid-tournament announcement of a new set of tiered central contracts.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t think that is an excuse,\u2019 said Malan, one of only eight players out of 29 to receive the minimum one-year deal. \u2018We have all been around long enough to still be able to perform whether we get contracts or not. We have just not been good enough.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Malan also admitted that criticism from Eoin Morgan, Jos Buttler\u2019s predecessor, was \u2018fair\u2019, but claimed he had no idea what Morgan meant when he said he thought \u2018there was something else going on\u2019 beyond a collective loss of form.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018His job is to have an opinion and he\u2019s totally entitled to that,\u2019 he said. \u2018The criticism is fair in the fact that we\u2019ve not been good enough, and we deserve the criticism we\u2019re getting because of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But I can only comment on us as a group. The boys are still supportive of each other. Hopefully that can turn and we start putting in some performances.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/cricket\/article-12694279\/Dawid-Malan-vows-England-wont-motions-three-matches-World-Cup-batsman-admits-careers-line-here.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dawid Malan vows England won&#8217;t go through motions in last three matches at the World Cup&#8230;
