England cricket poked fun at India after the T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final between both teams was confirmed on June 24, Monday. India defeated Australia to top Group 1 and seal their spot in the final four at St. Lucia after Rohit Sharma hit 92 to help India post 205 runs in their 20 overs. While Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh gave India a scare, they were able to bounce back in the second half of the Australia chase.
India won the match by 24 runs in the end to face England in the semi-final in Guyana. The defending champions were made to work hard to make it to the semi-finals. Firstly, in the group stages, they needed a favour from Australia as they edged past Scotland to make it to the Super 8s. After a commanding performance against West Indies, England lost to South Africa and needed a big win against the USA to qualify. That is what they got in the end, as Jos Buttler put the USA bowlers to the sword.
England would then put out a tweet after the match was made official, asking what had happened the last time when both teams met in a T20 World Cup semi-final.
“Anyone know what happened last time?” asked England cricket.
Indian fans would want to quickly forget the last time India faced England in the T20 World Cup. It was the 2nd semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022 and India had posted a target of 169 runs for the Jos Buttler and Co.
Hardik Pandya hit 63 and Virat Kohli got 50 but England would end up ruining the day. Alex Hales and Jos Buttler would take apart the Indian bowling lineup as England won the match by 10 wickets as they put on 170 runs in just 16 overs.
India and England are all set to face in Guyana on June 27, Thursday.
