Sky Sports' Nasser Hussain:
"They're a very resilient side [England]. We've seen that. They've bounced back really well.
"Reece touched on it a little bit; because of the types of cricketers they have and the amount of cricket on the schedule, they have a lot of bowlers that carry niggles... and, for that reason, England are often slightly undercooked.
"Here, [Mark] Wood and [Chris] Woakes were slightly undercooked going into that first game, and Topley hadn't bowled for quite a long time going into today.
"I see England, often now in tournaments and in series, slightly undercooked to start with but trying to peak at the right time. That's obviously dangerous in a world event when you lose [the opening game] to New Zealand by so much and your net run-rate takes such a hit, but they back themselves to bounce back.
"The crystal-clear messaging from Jos Buttler would have been, batting-wise, 'what have we set our stall out to do over the last eight or nine years? If in doubt, take the positive approach.'
