A repeat of the semifinal from two years ago is on the cards when India take on England for a place in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. It was a completely one-sided run chase the last time these two teams squared off at the T20 World Cup, with England riding on the then-opening partnership between skipper Jos Buttler and Alex Hales to chase down India's 169-run target with 10 wickets remaining and without breaking a sweat. England would then go on to become the champions, beating Pakistan in the final. Two years later, these heavyweight sides are at a crossroads as they take on each other with a place in the final on the line. And this time, India would eye redemption for that loss.

India have been superb in ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and it is time that the Rohit Sharma-led side take their performance up by another notch. Having remained undefeated so far, India will want to put their best foot forward and avoid a heartbreak at yet another ICC event. For the Men in Blue, everything seems to be clicking. The opening partnership between Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli has not flourished like many thought it would but the team management is expected to stick the same combination, banking on the experience of both these players to come good. Rohit turned the game around completely, scoring 92 runs off only 41 balls against Australia, a knock which proved to be the difference-maker. His aggression at the top of the order is something India would rely heavily on. On the bowling front, Jasprit Bumrah has been phenomenal and so has Arshdeep Singh, who has picked up early wickets regularly so far. Kuldeep Yadav, ever since being included in the playing XI, has not put a foot wrong and he will be key in containing the English batters in this match.

England on the other hand, have suffered a couple of blips en route to the semifinals but that hardly makes a difference now. Having been completely outplayed by Australia in the group stage, Jos Buttler and co showed a lot of character to bounce back and seal a Super 8 spot. In the Super 8, Buttler and his men lost to South Africa by just seven runs in a close run chase but wins over West Indies and USA pushed them through to the semifinal. The defending champions will once again rely on a quick start provided by Phil Salt and Buttler at the top of the order. Harry Brook in the middle-order has been excellent and so has Moeen Ali. On the bowling front, hat-trick hero Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer and Adil Rashid would be ones to watch out for.
