The 50-over World Cup is far older and has been competed for since back in 1975. Australia are the record winners having run out victorious on five occasions (1987, 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2015). England took the 2019 crown after a dramatic Ben Stokes-inspired super-over win over New Zealand at Lord's.
The shortest form of the game sees teams compete in Twenty20. The newest format has been an instant global hit with a number of hugely-lucrative competitions massively popular all over the world. Australia are reigning world champions having taken victory in the 2021 tournament.

What a fantastic session for England after a challenging start. Ben Duckett started positively after lunch and eventually succumbed to the short ball strategy. Then, Harry Brook and Ollie Pope were playing in their way to put pressure on the opponent. A couple of chances went down for Harry Brook, and he used it nicely. New Zealand aims to find a solution to curb the run flow in the next session. Stay tuned for the final session of the day.
