Dawid Malan Rejects Coach Blame as England's Disastrous World Cup Run Jeopardizes 2025 Champions Trophy Bid

Malan asserts players should take responsibility for poor performance, hints at potential team reshuffle following World Cup, as bid for 2025 Champions Trophy hangs in the balance.

• Dawid Malan rejects ideas that coach Matthew Mott is to blame for England's poor performance in the World Cup, stating that players need to take responsibility when they cross the field.
• England is currently at the bottom of the table with five losses in six games, putting their bid for the 2025 Champions Trophy at risk.
• Malan indicates that the timing of central contract negotiations did not distract the team at the World Cup, contrary to suggestions made by Michael Vaughan in his Telegraph Sport column.
• Despite criticisms and suggested rifts within the team, Malan asserts that the players are supportive of each other and are attempting to work hard and produce the best performance.
• Malan emphasizes that the team has a lot to play for in their last three games, with the goal of performing well enough to provide opportunities for future players in big tournaments.
