India vs England, T20 World Cup 2024: Will 2024 Semi-final Vindicate 2022 Defeat?
With England finishing second in the T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 Group 2 after South Africa’s narrow win over West Indies, England is likely to face the unbeaten Indian side, provided India tops Group 1 of Super 8.
India will play Australia tonight, and a victory will secure their top position in the group, likely ending Australia’s tournament run. If India wins, they will face England in the second semi-final at Providence Stadium, Guyana, on June 27 (8:00 PM IST).
This match promises to be a thrilling contest with defending champions England taking on favorites India for a spot in the final, reminiscent of the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-final.
On November 10, 2022, England faced India at the Adelaide Oval in the second semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022. England, led by Jos Buttler and Alex Hales, crushed India by 10 wickets, chasing down a target of 169 in just 16 overs. This defeat prompted India to revise their T20 batting strategy. The upcoming semi-final in Guyana on June 27 offers India a chance at redemption.
South Africa, having topped Group 2, will play the first semi-final, avoiding a clash with India (if they advance) and facing either Australia, Afghanistan, or Bangladesh. England, if India tops their group, will likely meet India in the semi-finals.
The first semi-final in Trinidad on June 26 is a night match (6:00 AM IST), while the second semi-final in Guyana is a day game (8:30 PM IST), making it more suitable for the Indian TV audience. Regardless of their group position, India will play in the second semi-final.
“The Final on June 29 will have a reserve day on June 30. The semi-finals will each have additional time added to ensure match completion, totaling 250 minutes. For the first semi-final on June 26, 60 minutes will be available at the end of the day’s play, with the remaining 190 minutes scheduled for 2 PM on June 27.
“If India qualifies for the semi-finals, they will play in the second semi-final scheduled for Guyana on June 27, 2024,” stated the playing conditions.
