India vs England LIVE: T20 World Cup latest score and updates from semi-final

Close”Certainly don’t want to see a India v Pakistan final” Jos Butler at T20 World CupEngland are one step away from a place in the T20 World Cup final, but they must now get past India, the most in form team of the tournament, if they want to secure their place in the climactic match. Jos Buttler’s side were put on the back foot during the Super 12 group stages after a rain-affected loss to Ireland and a washout versus Australia. England needed to win both of their last two matches – versus New Zealand and Sri Lanka – to qualify ahead of the Aussies and reach the final four.Buttler himself stepped up to the plate against New Zealand with a brilliant knock at the top of the order before some inspired captaincy kept the Kiwis in check. Sam Curran performed brilliantly with the ball in both games before Ben Stokes (42*) guided England to victory against Sri Lanka with his best innings of the competition.India are the semi-final opponents. They’ve won four of their fives matches so far including tense finishes against Pakistan and Bangladesh. Virat Kohli is back in form and Suryakumar Yadav has made this tournament his own. The Indian team is full of quality and they’ll be difficult to beat this morning yet if England play to the best of their ability they are in with a chance.Follow the action as England take on India in the T20 World Cup semi-final: Play starts at 8am in AdelaideWinner will face Pakistan in T20 World Cup finalPhil Salt replaces Dawid Malan in England line-up and Mark Wood also outEngland win toss and bowl first1668066334Pakistan have had a typical Pakistan tournament. By that I mean they lost their opening two matches with two final ball finishes and were on the verge of being eliminated before winning their final three games in the Super 12s. Still that wouldn’t have been enough to send them into the semi-finals but South Africa suffered a shock defeat to the Netherlands which saw Pakistan finish second in the group. After that slow start Babar Azam’s side found their form and blew New Zealand away in yesterday’s semi-final. They restricted th Kiwis to 152 before Babar and Mohammad Rizwan put on 105 for the first wicket. Both openers scored 50s and despite three wickets falling Pakistan won the game with five balls to spare. 30 years ago in 1992 Pakistan won the one day World Cup after a shocking start, going on to defeat England in the final.
