The Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur will host the final group stage match for England Masters as they face Australia Masters in the International Masters League T20 2025 on March 12.
With Australia already securing a semi-final berth and England eliminated, this fixture serves as a formality. The semi-final lineup is set, featuring Sri Lanka Masters, India Masters, Australia Masters and the West Indies Masters.
Eoin Morgan's England Masters team have had a tough run, sitting at the bottom of the points table with four consecutive losses. Their batting has been inconsistent and their bowling has struggled to find its rhythm. In their previous match, England suffered a crushing nine-wicket defeat against Sri Lanka. With just this final game remaining, England will be looking to salvage some pride and finish the tournament on a winning note.
