T20 World Cup: Former England captain Michael Vaughan has said if the defending champions are to win the 2024 T20 World Cup, they would require for captain Jos Buttler and fast-bowler Jofra Archer to be at their absolute best from Super Eights onwards.

England went through the Super Eight of the tournament after defeating Namibia by 41 runs in a rain-affected Group B match in Antigua on Saturday. They were hugely helped by Australia knocking out Scotland with a five-wicket win in St Lucia.

England will now face co-hosts West Indies and USA, as well as South Africa in Group 2 of the Super Eights.
