Led by Harry Brook, England secured a nail-biting win against Nepal to start things off. However, they suffered a defeat in their second match against the West Indies and won their third game against Scotland quite comfortably.

On the other hand, the Harry Manenti-led Italy lost their first match to Scotland and secured a win in their second match against Nepal. They would be aiming to continue their winning momentum, putting up a good fight.
