Australia's Josh Hazelwood says it's 'in everyone's interest' to see England knocked out of the T20 World Cup, and hinted Australia could take it easy against Scotland to make sure of it.

00:00 England's obviously one of the better teams in the tournament.
00:02 They're going to be relying on net run rate to get through to the next stage.
00:07 Is it in Australia's interest to, if there's anything that can be done about it in the
00:12 Scotland game, to make it as difficult as possible for England to progress?
00:16 Yeah, I think so.
00:19 In this tournament you potentially come up against England at some stage again and as
00:22 you said they're probably one of the top few teams on their day.
00:27 We've had some real struggles against them in T20 cricket so if we can get them out of
00:31 the tournament that's in our best interest as well as probably everyone else.
00:34 But yeah, it'll be interesting to see.
00:37 We've never really been in this position before as a team I don't think so whether we have
00:42 discussions or not we'll just try and play it again the way we did tonight.
00:45 Yeah, that'll be up to people, not me.
00:49 How do you think it would look like?
00:52 Not too sure really, whether you get close and you just knock it around and drag it out.
00:58 There's a few options there but as you said to take confidence from winning and winning
01:04 well I think that's almost more important than potentially trying to knock someone else
01:08 out.
01:09 They've still got a lot to do on their behalf as well so I think it'll become clearer the
01:16 closer we get to that sort of stuff.
