Axar, Kuldeep, and Rohit led India to the final
Former champions England were crushed by 68 runs, and India's Rohit Sharmaproduced a spectacular half-century off 39 balls, while left-arm spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel combined for 6 wickets. This set up an exciting final versus South Africa.
At the Guyana National Stadium in Providence, India played effectively to counteract the weather and several stoppages, eventually posting a strong 171-7 in 20 overs.
With six fours and two sixes in his fifty-seven-ball score, in-form opener Sharma played a captain's knock that laid the groundwork for his team's convincing victory.
After hitting them for 171 runs, Rohit Sharma and his team destroyed the reigning champions, England, bowling them out for just 103.
The England pacers gave their side a fantastic start by bowling first. As Reece Topley finished Virat Kohli for just nine, the Indian crowd was taken aback. While attempting to play a dangerous shot, Kohli gave up his wicket.
After that, Sam Curran dismissed the rapidly scoring Rishabh Pant (4) to severely pressure India. However, Rohit, who has often been criticised for failing to score in important games, batted beautifully on a pitch where the ball was held low most of the time.
Rohit scored 57 off 39 balls with six fours and two sixes. Additionally deserving of recognition is Suryakumar Yadav, who scored an important 47. Hardik Pandya scored 23 from 13 balls, including two massive sixes.
With helpful contributions from Axar (10) and Ravindra Jadeja (17), India reached 171/7 in 20 overs.
