London, Feb 27 (UNI) Michael Vaughan has questioned England's over-reliance on selecting out-and-out fast bowlers following their group-stage exit from the Champions Trophy.
England bowed out of the tournament on Wednesday after losing their must-win clash with Afghanistan by eight runs.
Jos Buttler's side fielded three 90mph bowlers - Jofra Archer, Mark Wood and Jamie Overton - and just one frontline spinner (Adil Rashid) in their bowling attack, and watched as Afghanistan posted a match-winning total of 325-7 after conceding 113 runs in the final 10 overs, six of which were bowled by pace, the BBC reported.
