The England cricket team faced a lengthy multiple-leg journey to reach India ahead of the Cricket World Cup.<\/p>\n

England will take on India in their first warm-up match ahead of the tournament at the Assam Cricket Association Stadium in Barsapara, Guwahati on 30 September.<\/p>\n

For some of the 15-man squad, it was a lengthy journey of over 30 hours, involving multiple changes.<\/p>\n

They finished the journey in economy, with opening batter Jonny Bairstow posting a photo on his Instagram showing Chris Woakes and Jos Buttler looking tired on their travel to Guwahati.<\/p>\n

Bairstow claimed the journey was more than 38 hours, which would be far from ideal preparation ahead of a meeting with India.<\/p>\n

India are the number one ranked ODI team in the world, and recently won two matches comfortably in home conditions against Australia in a pre-tournament series.<\/p>\n

England have two warm up matches, against India and Bangladesh before the main tournament starts on 5 October.<\/p>\n

In the flagship opener, England will play New Zealand in a repeat of the thrilling 2019 World Cup final, which saw then captain Eoin Morgan lift the trophy after a match that could only be decided on a super over.<\/p>\n

Anticipation has been building ahead of the tournament, with the first warm up matches featuring Pakistan, New Zealand, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka on 29 September.<\/p>\n

The tournament itself will see 10 teams: England, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, Australia, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and the Netherlands play each other in a round-robin format before the knockout stages.<\/p>\n

The top four teams will qualify directly for the semi-finals, and then the final will be held on 19 November at the 134,000-seater stadium in Ahmedabad, the same venue as the first match.<\/p>\n
