Ahmed and Jacks rally to lead England to thrilling win over New Zealand
England all-rounder Rehan Ahmed played down his hopes of selection for the T20 World Cup semi-finals despite his crucial role in Friday's win over New Zealand.
Making his World Cup debut, Ahmed, 21, took a wicket with his first ball and then scored a crucial 19 not out to secure victory in England's chase in partnership with Will Jacks.
As a spinner, he was brought into the XI for the turning conditions in Colombo but England's semi-final is likely to be on a truer surface in Mumbai on Thursday.
"I'm not too bothered about my place in the team," said Ahmed, who became England's youngest men's Test cricketer in 2022.
