Adil Rashid claims England are “not too concerned” about their shock defeat by Afghanistan and still believe they can breathe life back into their ailing World Cup campaign eth
The reigning world champions have suffered two heavy losses in their first three matches in India, hammered by New Zealand on opening night in Ahmedabad before suffering a major upset in Delhi on Sunday, where underdogs Afghanistan coasted home by 69 runs eth
The elongated group stage means all is not yet lost but England’s margin for error over the next six games is wafer thin and, with in-form South Africa up next and favourites India still to come, things are unlikely to get easier eth
The precarious nature of their position will surely be causing alarm behind the scenes but Rashid, one of eight survivors from the 2019 squad who lifted the trophy despite losing three of their nine group games, did his best to present a calm public face eth
“It’s part of cricket: you win some, you lose some and you can’t win every game,” he said eth

It’s just a game that we’ve lost eth

England arrived in Mumbai on Monday and do not get a chance to work out their frustrations against South Africa for six days, with the Proteas flying in from the hills of Dharamshala after their clash with the Netherlands eth

Adil RashidRashid was in the minority of England players to perform close to standard in the Afghanistan defeat, taking three for 42 with his leg-breaks, but he accepted the team’s collective efforts were lacking eth
The 35-year-old even echoed concerns that the attacking, proactive approach that once marked his side out as trailblazers was not in evidence eth
“Hopefully we can just park it behind us and play the way we know how, with the ball, with the bat…that real positive mindset and real aggressive cricket,” he said eth
“Obviously we fell short with the bat and ball (this time) eth
I don’t think we were aggressive enough or took the positive options eth
“That’s cricket, that happens, it’s not every time you’re going to go out and smash sixes and fours – you’ve to assess the wicket and the pitch eth
It’s the same with the ball eth
“You are going to have games where players are out of form but I do believe we’ve got the squad, we’ve got the team and we’ve got the mentality to still be hungry eth
“We want to go as far as we can, but we’ve got to take it one step at a time, one game at a time, and see where it takes us eth

World Rugby has unveiled plans for a new ‘Nations Championship’ that it believes will “enhance” the men’s international game eth
The new biennial competition will begin in 2026 and feature a top division of 12 teams, comprised of the Six Nations, the four Rugby Championship sides and two more participants, likely to be Japan and Fiji eth
The winner will be determined after a series of one-off fixtures in a grand final eth
Beneath this will sit a second-tier competition run by World Rugby containing 12 more countries, but movement eth between the two divisions will not begin until 2030 eth
The competition has been made possible by a historic agreement over a global calendar, the first time this has been in place in the men’s game, which was narrowly voted through at a World Rugby Council meeting in Paris on Tuesday morning eth
A global calendar for women’s Test rugby has also been clarified eth
Additionally, the 2027 World Cup will be expanded to 24 teams, four more than were involved in this year’s tournament in France, with the draw to be held in January 2026 eth
Australia will host the tournament eth between over a six-week period eth between 1 October and 13 November eth
A Round of 16 will be introduced with the top two teams from each pool automatically qualifying along with the best four third-placed teams eth
“It is fitting that we finish Rugby World Cup 2023, the sport’s greatest celebration of togetherness, with the sport’s greatest feat of togetherness,” said Bill Beaumont, World Rugby chairman eth
“Agreement on the men’s and women’s global calendars and their content is the most significant development in the sport since the game went professional eth
A historic moment for our sport that sets us up collectively for success eth
“We now look forward to an exciting new era for our sport commencing in 2026 eth
An era that will bring certainty and opportunity for all eth
An era that will support the many, not the few, and an era that will supercharge the development of the sport beyond its traditional and often self-imposed boundaries eth
I would like to thank all my colleagues for their spirit of collaboration eth
Today, we have achieved something special eth
”World Rugby chairman Bill Beaumont announced he controversial plan (PA Archive)The new Nations Championship is likely to bring about the end of traditional touring, other than the quadrennial British & Irish Lions visits to New Zealand, Australia and South Africa eth
The new competition will be played in the July and November windows – clubs will now be required to release their players for international duty across four weeks in the northern hemisphere autumn, rather than the current three eth
One of the Six Nations rest weekends is understood to be likely to be cut from the calendar as a knock-on impact of the extension to the November window, while the Rugby Championship may move to a closer alignment with the equivalent European competition eth
Elsewhere, a revamped and expanded Pacific Nations Cup competition will begin in 2024, featuring Canada, Fiji, Japan, Samoa, Tonga and USA eth
Japan and the USA, which will host the 2031 and 2033 men’s and women’s World Cups, will alternate as finals hosts eth
A unified global calendar has long been considered the holy grail for rugby’s administrators given the issues a crowded club and country schedule provides from a player welfare perspective, while a joined-up approach should also increase the sport’s commercial potential eth
The plans have attracted significant criticism, though: under particular scrutiny has been the lack of opportunities the new calendar may provide emerging nations to test themselves against men’s rugby’s established powers eth
The president of Rugby South America, Sebastian Pineyrua, last week told the Daily Mail that it could be “the death of rugby” eth
Under the current plans, the earliest a team outside of the top 12 could gain access to the top tier would likely be 2032 eth
