LIVE | IND vs ENG T20 World Cup 2nd semifinal:
India and England are all set to cross swords in the second semifinal of T20 World Cup 2022 in Adelaide on Thursday, November 10. Rohit Sharma's men qualified for the semis after losing just one Super 12 match, and finishing top of their Group 2 with 8 points.
On the other hand, Jos Buttler's Three Lions have also tasted defeat just once and they finished second in Group 1 on 7 points.
Both India and England will be looking to book a date with Pakistan in the final of World Cup, in Melbourne on November 13, but before that, they will have to battle it out at the Adelaide Oval.
The form of Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav has been a major positive for India, and given Kohli's previous record in Adelaide, Buttler will be vary of the threat posed by him. Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul will also have the task of providing the team with a good platform to build upon.
While India won the inaugural T20 World Cup back in 2007, England won their first title in 2010. Both sides will be hoping to add a second title to their cabinet, but before that a stern test awaits both Team India and England in Adelaide.
Jos Buttler and Co will need to ensure they score 169 runs, or else they will not be able to stop an India vs Pakistan final. Hardik Pandya and Virat Kohli both were crucial, getting India to a par total.
Pant whacks with force and Pandya gets the strike. He's the dangerman and should be on strike. Jordan into the attack for his final over of the spell, and must be feeling the pressure as well. This is Pandya's second-highest total in international cricket, a single on the subsequent ball and Pant back on strike.
OMG! FIFTY for Pandya! Misfield from Stokes and Team India are past 150 and this is exactly what they were hoping for. Exactly how India would have wanted the momentum to shift, Pandya and Pant with six balls reaming to lead their side to a competitive total.
IND 156/4 (19)
Pandya has been under the cosh, Curran is mixing the line and length very well. Just 11 runs off the over, three overs remain. India must go all guns blazing or they will find it difficult to get past the 150 mark.
IND 121/3 (17)
Virat Kohli smashes a boundary down the covers, fielder dives full length but can't reach it, and India cross the 100-run mark. Kohli has scored 43 runs already. He will hope to keep that run going.
IND 100/3 (15)
Hardik Pandya joins Kohli in the middle. Pandya survives, there was a chance for a catch. Hardik goes hard on the drive and is lucky that the outside edge drops short of short third man. Just three runs off the 13th over, India need to find some form of inspiration from somewhere because it's all England at the moment.
India collect 12 runs in the final two balls of the over, but SKY falls to Adil Rashid. He completely mistimes his effort, wanted to play it towards covers, but missed the trick. SKY departs, and a huge blow for India.
IND 75/3 (11.2)
Ben stokes into the attack again, SKY will be hoping to take him on, whacks his bat with force but misses. During the break, coach Rahul Dravid and Harshal Patel as well as Yuzi Chahal joined Virat and SKY. Discussed those tactics and once they settle now then it's all guns blazing attack.
SurVir is in the middle now. Both these players have dominated this tournament so far, another special show from them perhaps? SKY takes a single and end of the final over before the midway point in this inning.
India will not be happy but they have wickets in hand, which is very crucial at this venue.
IND 57/2 (9)
Over Summary (1-5)
>> Rahul gets India going with a boundary off the first ball
>> Woakes draws first blood, Rahul nicks off
>> Curran troubles Kohli and starts with a quiet over
>> Kohli with a sumptuous six over extra cover
>> Rohit strikes a couple of fours to release pressure
10 runs off the 4th over, and Curran returns for his second over. A single off the first ball. Rohit flicks and collects a brilliant boundary! Talk about timing ladies and gentlemen, good use of the pace from Curran, just flicks it effortlessly.
A single on the next delivery and then Rohit comes on strike. Hits and misses the subsequent ball, expecting a good show from the Indian skipper. He takes a single and gives the strike back to KL.
IND 6/0 (0.4)
National anthems coming up soon. The pre-match festivities will be done soon and then the high-octane clash. India and England have a lot of history, they've played against each other a lot in recent years. The Men in Blue last won the T20 World Cup in 2007, and England won it in 2010. Pakistan in 2009. Whoever wins it, will equal West Indies' record to become only the second team to win two T20 World Cups.
Irfan Pathan interviewed Hardik Pandya during the pre-match, and the all-rounder promised Pathan that he will play a big knock. In the past of couple of games, Pandya has been dismissed while trying to clear the fence. A big knock is certainly due and fans will be hoping that he can take some time and then play the role of a finisher. Dinesh Karthik is not playing today, so the onus will be on Pandya.
Rohit Sharma: We would have batted first anyway. We've played some good cricket, another opportunity for us to play the same way we have all tournament. Important to hold the nerve and take the game till the end. We've played these guys a fair bit in recent years and know what strengths-weaknesses they have. Important to exploit that. Important to stay calm and do what we want to do. It (injury) was a scare but I'm fine now. The kind of talent we have, it was a tough one (to pick the XI). Same team for us.
Jos Buttler: We're gonna bowl first. There is going to be a great atmosphere here. Dimensions are different, we will have to adapt. We have two changes - Malan and Wood are out with injuries - Salt and Jordan come in. Looks a good wicket. Hope it stays well the whole game.
India are unchanged from the previous match. So Pant it is!
India (Playing XI): KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma(c), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant(w), Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh
Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav on one side, and then there's Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, and Alex Hales in the opposition ranks. Arshdeep Singh will lead India's charge with the ball, whereas Sam Curran will lead the charge for England.
Rishabh Pant was seen practising wicketkeeping and Dinesh Karthik is helping him prepare on live broadcast, wow those are some interesting visuals. Is this confirmation enough? Pant played the last match but could only score 3 runs. DK had played the previous four matches before that, but had failed to score any big innings with the bat. So who is it gonna be?
Right then, the day of reckoning is upon us, 15 years after MS Dhoni led a young brigade to the T20 World Cup title in 2007, can Rohit Sharma lead this current team brimming with experience to the final? It's going to be a great contest, England won the last time they played against India, but the Men in Blue had already won that series.
If there's one stadium in this world, Virat Kohli can call his home ground, it's Adelaide, apart from the home of RCB, Chinnaswamy stadium obviously. Kohl has an almost envious record at this venue, he simply loves to play here. And, he only needs 42 runs to cross 4000 runs in T20I cricket. What a milestone that would be.
Team India skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss in each of India's first three games but lost the toss against Bangladesh. He again won the coin flip against Zimbabwe and fans will be hoping that Rohit's love affair with winning the tosses does continue.
Expect a packed Adelaide Oval as Indian fans have already started the party outside the venue. They were dancing, celebrating and enjoying. The visuals are really very colourful, Infact, ex-Australia pacer Mitchell Johnson was also seen cheering for Team India in Hindi!

Both captains Rohit Sharma and Jos Buttler will be out for the toss in nearly an hour. The pitch at Adelaide Oval offers plenty of assistance to batsmen, so the captain winning the toss may yet choose to bowl. India have already played at this venue against Bangladesh, they will know what to expect from the pitch.
The party has already started in Adelaide! Fans are starting to flock to the Adelaide Oval and the scenes outside the venue wherever Team India goes, it's just epic. An English couple was seen outside the venue as they cheered for Team India and Virat Kohli! Yes you read that right, check out for yourself:

Team India are all set and all the preparations are done for the much-awaited clash against England. BCCI dropped a video on Twitter with Rohit Sharma explaining what it takes to beat a team like England, and what is the pressure of playing in a semifinal match. Watch:

Will Rishabh Pant retain his place in the playing XI? He managed to score only 3 runs against Zimbabwe, while was on the bench for the remaining games. Whereas, Dinesh Karthik has also failed to light up the tournament with his bat. Yuzvendra Chahal meanwhile is the only player in India's 15-man squad who is yet to feature in any game. Will he get a chance?
Rajasthan Royals are known to be one of the most active franchises on social media. They are known for their witty takes, and ahead of the India vs England semifinal in T20 World Cup, RR shared a meme reference from the iconic movie Lagaan! Watch and rejoice:

Rishabh Pant has chosen to name Jasprit Bumrah in his dream picks for T20I XI, while he has also named the likes of Jos Buttler, the England skipper of course, Liam Livingstone known for his brutal hitting and Rashid Khan too. Pant also named himself in the eleven as well.
As far as the head-to-head record between England and India is concerned, the Men in Blue have won 12 matches against the Three Lions in the shortest format, while the opposition side has won 10 times in a total of 22 meetings between them till date. In the T20 World Cup, India and England have locked horns thrice, where India have the advantage again, having won twice.
Adelaide has been lashed by rain on the eve of the match, with various Twitter users taking to their accounts to post videos and updates about the same. However, thankfully the weather forecast so far has shown that it's going to be clear skies. Check how what the weather will be like in Adelaide.
When it comes to England, the Three Lions are without two key players for the semifinal clash with Mark Wood and Dawid Malan both doubtful. Team India have no injury concerns as such, with both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli doing well after being struck in the nets.
Virat is the current leading run-scorer of the T20 World Cup. He's already smashed three half-centuries, can he make it four today? Only time will tell. Meanwhile, SKY is also among the race of the highest run-scorers list. Hopefully they can both produce a memorable knock each!
India and England gear up to face off at the Adelaide Oval, a venue which is known to be a firm favourite of former Indian skipper Virat Kohli. Can he produce another memorable knock today? Also, the form of Suryakumar Yadav has been a major positive. SKY smashed a fifty against Zimbabwe and will be looking to repeat his heroics today as well.
