Steven Finn: 'England will thrive under pressure'

Steven Finn believes that England are capable of handling the pressure against Pool A rivals Sri Lanka on Sunday.

Steven Finn has claimed that England will thrive under pressure ahead of their World Cup clash with Sri Lanka on Sunday.

England are currently sixth in Pool A with one win from their opening three games, and Finn has urged his teammates to approach the game in Wellington with confidence as they look to pick up a potentially crucial victory in the bid to reach the quarter-finals.

"We got beat by Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka so it's important we go out there and try to stamp our authority in conditions that should favour us," the 25-year-old seamer is quoted as saying by The Mirror.

"It's very important for us and these three games are almost each like a quarter-final, but we thrive on that sort of pressure and I think hopefully it will bring the best out of us."

Sri Lanka warmed up for the game against England with a 96-run victory over Bangladesh in their third match.
