Indian national cricket team registered a dominant victory over England in the Semi Final T20 WC 2024 and took their revenge of T20 WC 2022 Semi Final defeat. Rohit Sharma was spot on with his tactics as the decision to bowl Axar Patel in the powerplay overs proved to be beneficial.
Rohit Sharma’s Masterclass
The Indian captain, Rohit Sharma, came in to bat and produced a marvelous knock of 57 in 39 balls which was studded with 6 fours and 2 sixes. His bold hitting and strike rotation capability enabled him to give India the perfect start that paved way for the team’s triumph.
Kuldeep Yadav’s Wickets at the Right Time
India’s regular Spin bowler Kuldeep Yadav dismissed three English batsman in his four overs, among them the highest scorer of the English team Jos Buttler scored 23 off 15. Some of Yadav’s wickets were at very right times which hampered the England’s batting lineup and allowed India to be on the positive side of the game. His figures of 3/19 led to the Englishmen’s being bowled out for 103-10 in their 16. 4 overs.
