Champs open defence with Ashes showdown
Defending Champions England A will be getting their defence of the 2015 World Cup of Pool underway with a showdown against Ashes rivals Australia on the opening evening of the tournament. Taking place on the evening of Tuesday 22nd September at the famous York Hall in Bethnal Green, Englands Karl Boyes and Darren Appleton will be looking continue Australias dismal winless run in the competition.
Other marquee matches in the opening round of the $250,000 pairs tournament include last years runners-up Holland against the well-supported Indian team and betting favourites the Philippines against the dangerous Russian duo. Both matches are slated for Wednesday evening.
Previous champions China get their World Cup underway on the opening afternoon against debutants Romania while 2012 winners Finland face Belgium. Other big name teams include USA (Shane Van Boening and Mike Dechaine) against Qatar and Taiwan against Estonia.
