Pretty much nailed on to be our worst ever tournament now, as 2015 pales in comparison. The million dollar question - or, more aptly, the 220 million pounds a year till 2028 question - is whether this format, and by extension the World Cup, still carries enough global prestige for the ECB to react as they did in 2015. Back then it mattered to them that we get the job done on home soil in 2019, but now? Not sure they'll care, sadly. Certainly not enough to prioritise domestic 50-over cricket at the expense of their own hobby horse.
