Michael Vaughan slams "very predictable" England

England are "very predictable" in one-day cricket, according to former captain Michael Vaughan.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan has described the current team as "very predictable" in one-day cricket.

England have fallen to heavy defeats against both Australia and New Zealand in Pool A of the Cricket World Cup so far, and Vaughan believes that they will lose at the quarter-final stage, just as they have done in the last two World Cups.

He told BBC Sport: "After the [Scotland] game [captain] Eoin Morgan said they are flexible. No, they're not. They are set in stone the way they are going to play.

"England are very, very predictable and if they're not careful this World Cup will be like most pundits have said, with a predictable outcome.

"They will get to the quarter-finals, just, and then play a powerhouse like India at the MCG and it will be same old, same old, same as the last World Cup and same as the one before."

England sit fifth in Pool A after they beat Scotland yesterday.
