India vs England Semi-Final: England mock India before ICC T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final

England mock India ahead of T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final.

England Cricket taunted India after the Men in Blue secured a spot in the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. India's match against England is scheduled for June 27. They clinched their semi-final berth by defeating Australia by 24 runs, topping Group 1 in the process. Leading from the front, Rohit Sharma scored a blistering 92 runs off 41 balls, including 8 sixes and 7 fours.

India posted a formidable total of 205 runs, and despite Travis Head's impressive batting for Australia, the subcontinent team emerged victorious with a 24-run margin.

This victory sets up a clash with Jos Buttler's England team in Guyana. The defending champions faced a tough route to the semi-finals, relying on a favour from Australia, who defeated Scotland to aid their cause. In the Super 8 stage, England began with a victory over the West Indies but stumbled against South Africa, necessitating a win against the USA to progress.

Following India's qualification, England's official cricket account tweeted a jibe, asking fans if they remembered what had transpired the last time the two teams met in a T20 World Cup semi-final in 2022.

Indian supporters would prefer to forget that encounter. In the 2022 T20 World Cup's second semi-final, India had set a target of 169 runs for Jos Buttler's side. Despite contributions from Hardik Pandya (63 runs) and Virat Kohli (50 runs), England's Alex Hales and Jos Buttler dismantled India's bowling attack, achieving a crushing 10-wicket victory by chasing down the target in just 16 overs, scoring 170 runs.

India and England are now geared up to face each other once again, this time in Guyana on Thursday, June 27.
