Wonder catch might not save Roy from England ax
BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) Producing possibly the catch of the tournament might not be enough to keep Jason Roy in England’s cricket team for the Champions Trophy semifinals.
Roy followed up a wonder-catch on the boundary with yet another batting failure in England’s rain-affected 40-run win over Australia at Edgbaston on Saturday.
A second-ball dismissal for 4 means the opener has scored just 51 runs in eight international innings this summer.
”It’s unfortunate that Jason didn’t get runs today,” England captain Eoin Morgan. ”We are three games into a tournament and we will take a couple of days to look at what our best team is for the semifinals.”
