With England needing Pakistan to avoid a huge defeat to the Netherlands to qualify but, while their chances of reaching the Super 8s are still quite good, are left waiting for the result of the Pakistan-Netherlands game before finding out their fate.
Alarmingly Pakistan are beaten by the Netherlands after they chase down 132 in 18.4 overs. Fortunately for England that wasn't enough for them to overturn their huge run rate deficit from the first group match and England scrap through in second and the Netherlands are knocked out.
Australia fail to qualify for the Super 8s loosing both group games the the West Indies and Sri Lanka.
The Super 8s haven't been kind to England with them sharing a group with South Africa, India and Sri Lanka with West Indies, New Zealand, Pakistan and Bangladesh in the other group.
England's first game is against South Africa followed by India, before finishing off with Sri Lanka.
