      <title>T20 World Cup: England survive Italy scare to reach Super 8 stage</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330452587/t20-world-cup-england-survive-italy-scare-to-reach-super-8-stage</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;An unbeaten fifty by Will Jacks and Sam Curran’s three-wicket haul steered England to a nervy 24-run win over Italy in the Twenty20 World Cup on Monday, as the twice champions progressed to the Super Eight stage.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Player of the match Jacks, in at seven, hammered 53 off 22 balls to help England post 202-7, their highest total of the tournament.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Italy’s Ben Manenti struck a rapid 60 to keep the T20 World Cup debutants in the game, but their efforts to pull off a huge upset all but ended when Curran dismissed Grant Stewart for 45 in the 19th over, and they were all out for 178.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;England ended their Group C campaign with three wins and a loss to West Indies, who also qualified for the Super Eights.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Italy, already eliminated, will finish with a dead rubber game against the West Indies on Thursday.&lt;/p&gt;
