IND vs ENG semi-final update T20 World Cup 2024

IND vs ENG semi-final update: Rohit’s funky fifty followed some contributions from SKY, Hardik and Jadeja guided India to a 170-plus score in the second semifinal of the T20 World Cup at Guyana 

The rain-halted game saw many deliveries failed to bounce well, and a good turn for spinners, which is a good sign for India while defending 172.  

IND vs ENG semi-final update  

Invited to bat first, Indian captain Rohit Sharma seemed to continue their aggressive best against a tough English side.  

Virat Kohli once again failed to deliver for his side in search of a quick start. Topley bowled a perfect good length delivery that shaped back into the right-hander. Kohli tried to smash over mid-wicket, got beaten and the ball removed the bails.  

Rohit Sharma from one end providing India some relief with his fearless play. Rishabh Pant, who came at number 3 got out for 4 at mid-wicket as he did not get the elevation he needed. 

Skipper Rohit and Suryakumar Yadav added 73 for the third wicket before the former left the crease after scoring 57 off 39.  

Much was dependent on SKY for being a set batter at difficult surface, but he was got near the boundary at 47.  

Hardik Pandya showed some signs of bringing his side back into the game with his 13-ball 23. While Jadeja () and Axar’s (10 off 6) small cameos provided the momentum.  

Chris Jordan was the pick of the bowler for England, as he took 3 wickets.
