I think from memory, if it detects a fault with the crank sensor while the engine is running, the ECU also shuts the engine down too. Could be a problem with teh sensor itself, or the wiring/connection to the sensor? There have been a few threads in the past on several MG sites, where people have said "car won't start" or "car cut out", and advice has been to clean the crank sensor. Apparently it can become dirty within the housing and a good clean can help. No experience of this personally, but just relaying info that may help...assuming it is true, of course!
