India are the team to beat at the T20 World Cup. Rohit Sharma and his squad haven’t lost a single match so far and have most of their key players performing exceptionally well. As the 2024 T20 World Cup reaches its critical phase, it is now time for the semi-finals, featuring a high-stakes clash between India and England – a match that promises intense excitement! England handed India a heavy defeat in the 2022 T20 World Cup semi-final in Adelaide, and the Indian team is still smarting from that loss. Will India seek revenge for what happened Down Under two years ago? Can India knock out the defending champions in this marquee encounter on Thursday in Guyana?
India are the team to beat in the tournament, having remained undefeated so far with their top players performing exceptionally well. England, on the other hand, has not been at their best but managed to scrape through to the semi-finals despite losses to Australia in the group stage and South Africa in the Super 8.
Likely Playing XIs for India & England
It will be interesting to see if India makes any changes to their winning combination or if they opt to include an extra seamer like Mohammed Siraj, considering the helpful conditions for pacers in Guyana. However, it’s unlikely they would want to disrupt their momentum, especially with Kuldeep Yadav in fine form. England might consider making one change by bringing in Mark Wood for his extra pace, likely at the expense of Moeen Ali.
