The RFL gave special permission for clubs to re-arrange three of the postponed fixtures on the eve of the Challenge Cup final on July 17. The group games will take place across eight stadia: Al Bayt Stadium, Khalifa International Stadium, Al Thumama Stadium, Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium, Lusail Stadium, Ras Abu Aboud Stadium, Education City Stadium, Al Janoub Stadium. England were getting the big finish they wanted and even when Livingstone fell two balls into the last over, Ali (51no from 37) lofted the ball over mid-off for a one-bounce four to bring up his half-century and a dropped catch from Glenn Phillips last ball allowed England two more - making it 99 runs in the last 10 overs. Walton Heath was Justin Rose's chosen venue for the 2018 edition, where Eddie Pepperell secured his breakthrough European Tour title, with Tommy Fleetwood then taking the tournament to Hillside a year later and the host for Marcus Kinhult's narrow victory.
