Watch Australia Vs. England Cricket Live Stream: 2019 Cricket World Cup 2nd Semifinal, Start Time, Preview

After underdog New Zealand shocked table-topping India — the Black Caps bowlers rallied to defend a seemingly vulnerable total of just 239, as Deadspin reported — one of cricket’s oldest and most heated rivalries moves to center stage in the 2019 Cricket World Cup, as Australia faces England in the second semifinal. The winner, of course, moves on to face New Zealand at Lord’s on Sunday. An Australia win sets up a rematch of the 2015 final, in which Australia won its fifth World Cup title. On the other side, England has never won the Cricket World Cup despite being the country that invented the game — and in fact, the Three Lions have not even played a semifinal match since 1992. But they will play one on Thursday, in a match that will live stream from Edgbaston.

For one player, England’s Ben Stokes, there is more at stake than simply a place in the World Cup final, as CricBuzz reported. After a scandal surrounding a 2017 brawl outside a Bristol, England, pub that saw him banned from the Ashes — just a year after he allowed four sixes in the final over of the T20 World Cup final to lose to West Indies — Stokes will look to Thursday’s game for a shot at redemption.

Though Australia defeated England in their group stage match, the tournament hosts may actually be favored in the semifinal due to one factor — the ground. England has won four straight ODI matches and 10 straight (in all formats) at Edgbaston, according to Birmingham Live. On the other hand, Australia has not claimed a 50-overs victory at the Birmingham ground in 26 years.
