India will lock horns with England in the 2nd semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2024. India, the unbeaten juggernaut, will be looking to continue their dominance and avenge their defeat to England in the 2022 World Cup semi-final. This article will cover match details, pitch report, playing XI, player stats, Dream11 predictions and fantasy cricket tips for the IND vs ENG match.
Match Preview
Rohit Sharma’s men have been in phenomenal form throughout the tournament. Their batting has been a force to be reckoned with, with the likes of Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav in top nick. The bowling attack, having pace spearheads Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh alongside the spin wizard Kuldeep Yadav, has been equally impressive.
England‘s journey has been a tale of two halves. After a stuttering start in the group stage, they found their rhythm and became the first team to secure a semi-final berth. Their batting, spearheaded by the explosive opening duo of Phil Salt and Jos Buttler, has been a major driving force. However, they will face a huge challenge against India‘s potent bowling attack.
England’s bowling attack, led by the express pace of Jofra Archer and supported by Mark Wood and Reece Topley, is no less potent. Spin wizard Adil Rashid has also been amongst the wickets in recent matches. This bowling unit is capable of restricting any batting line-up on their day.
