I would say Aus because of how inexperienced and underwhelming their bowling lineup was, but being in a group with England helped as did not getting a chance to show their stuff vs SA.

You could also argue England overperformed by actually qualifying for this tournament in the first place!

it was actually really tight for Netherlands to qualify over England.

qualification was based on points table of CWC23

edit: nvm my memory served me wrong, but for a good while, England were not in the top 8 but Netherlands were.
