Team Report
This semi-final match will be a cut-throat fight between the defending champion England and India. This match will also be an ultimate test for the Indian opening pair as they have been unable to perform up to their mark.
India and England have been playing good cricket throughout this tournament, but the one who continues to do so will go ahead to the finals against South Africa.
For the England side, there was a bit of friction in the initial period of the tournament, but they corrected themselves repeatedly in this tournament, which shows how they’ve become the World Champions. This match will again be a test for them, but there will be much pressure in this match as it’s a semis.
The Indian side has been excellent in previous matches, and winning against Australia will surely give them more confidence in their team and performance.
Head to head
India has a very slight advantage after 12 wins in 23 games; England won 11 matches.
In T20 World Cups, the equation is even with 2-2 for both sides.
On the other hand, if we look at this team’s records, we will see a pattern that suggests they’ve always been a team that performs magnificently in the group stage matches but has been unable to do so in the big matches like the Finals and semi-finals.
So, will India break this stereotype today, or will they stick to their record? Rohit Sharma and his team need to answer this today Against England.
Pitch & Weather report for India vs England
The Rain factor in this venue is still hovering above, and passing showers during the game is also a big factor that will break the rhythm of the players and the audience.
The pitch in Guyana is good for spin bowlers. Since it’s a day game, the wicket might slow down as the game goes on.
Scoring quickly during the Power play is important because hitting and rotating the strike in the middle overs will be harder once the ball gets older. If it rains, the pitch might get damp, making batting easier.
