England in Trouble as South Africa Strikes Again – Sixth Wicket Falls
In the 11th match of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, England faces South Africa at Karachi’s National Stadium. After winning the toss, England opted to bat first but has struggled against South Africa’s strong bowling attack. Liam Livingstone’s dismissal marked the fall of their sixth wicket, with Keshav Maharaj securing his second wicket of the match.
