In a stunning turn of events at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, England faced a devastating 229-run loss against South Africa, leaving captain Jos Buttler to concede that the champions “have no room for error from here on in” in the ongoing World Cup.
Opting to field first, Buttler watched as South Africa piled up a formidable total of 399-7. Heinrich Klaasen’s remarkable century defied the sweltering conditions, adding to England’s woes.
