“This result against a team who are the current ICC Champions Trophy holders is a significant achievement and bodes extremely well for the ICC Men’s World Cup in England later this year.

“It shows that our vision 2019 concept is well on track and it is pleasing to see the depth of talent that is coming to the fore in all departments.
