T20 World Cup: England peaking at the right time – Liam Livingstone

Livingstone has played in all of England’s matches so far, overcoming a side injury picked up while batting against Namibia.

He has taken two wickets and scored 13 and 33 in his two innings in the middle order.

The 30-year-old admitted it is hard to find rhythm playing in a role with so little time to impress.

“As a kid I always wanted to be involved, that’s the reason I started bowling a few years back,” he said.

“So batting at seven and maybe bowling one over, that’s where the hard bit comes as you want to be involved.

“Thankfully the last two games I struck the ball well against South Africa and bowled pretty well [against USA], so I feel I’m in a good place.”
