New Delhi:Former England captain Kevin Pietersen on Tuesday said that only Afghanistan or Pakistan can defeat the Three Lions in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
However, the former England captain also said that Afghanistan and Pakistan can beat England only if they are playing on a used wicket.
"Only Pakistan or Afghanistan can beat England in this T20 World Cup. BUT and it's a BIG BUT, the game would have to be played on a used wicket in Sharjah. Anywhere else, just hand England the trophy like Chelsea should be handed the EPL trophy RIGHT NOW," tweeted Pietersen.
Jos Buttler smashed his maiden ton before England displayed an all-round performance to defeat Sri Lanka by 26 runs in the Super 12 match of the T20 World Cup here at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Monday.
England scored 163 in 20 overs and then restricted Sri Lanka to 137 to register their fourth win in four games in the tournament.
