England aims to break away ODI series curse
26 Jan
Summary
- England seeks first away ODI series win since March 2023.
- Team endured poor World Cup and Champions Trophy campaigns.
- Liam Dawson focuses on T20 World Cup, not Test recall.

England is one victory away from ending a nearly three-year drought of winning an away ODI series. Their last success on foreign soil was in Bangladesh in March 2023. Since then, they have suffered four consecutive series defeats, compounded by poor performances in the ODI World Cup and Champions Trophy.
Despite a shaky start in the current Sri Lanka series, England secured a crucial five-wicket win in the second ODI, snapping an 11-match losing streak in away 50-over matches. This victory, featuring strong performances from Joe Root and Harry Brook, sets up a series decider for Tuesday. Liam Dawson, focusing on the upcoming T20 World Cup, expressed excitement about the possibility of playing in the tournament.
