This loss comes at a time when England is facing an uphill battle to defend their title.
As of now, they find themselves languishing in the ninth position on the points table, with just one victory from the four games they've played in the tournament.
The absence of Topley, a vital component of their bowling attack, will undoubtedly add to their challenges as they strive to turn their World Cup campaign around.
