India captain Virat Kohli has expressed surprise at England's patchy World Cup performance, hinting that pressure may be playing its part in their struggles.
Kohli nominated the hosts as firm favourites to lift the trophy when questioned on the eve of the tournament, a widely held belief that has been eroded by each of England's three defeats by Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Australia.
A fourth against the Indians on Sunday would leave Eoin Morgan's men in grave danger of missing out on the semi-finals, a state of affairs that has taken Kohli aback.
