T20 WC: Semi-final Spot On Line As Unchanged India Put West Indies To Bat
T20 World Cup: India won the toss and elected to bowl first against the West Indies in their Super Eights clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup at Eden Gardens on Sunday.
The qualification equation became significantly simpler for the hosts after South Africa inflicted a heavy defeat on the West Indies earlier in the Super Eights stage. Before that result, India’s chances hinged not only on winning their remaining matches but also on securing emphatic margins of victory against Zimbabwe and the West Indies.
South Africa’s triumph altered the scenario, leaving India with a clear objective: win both remaining fixtures to ensure progression. The team responded in style, overcoming the first challenge with a dominant 72-run victory over Zimbabwe, effectively turning their final Super Eights clash against the Windies into a virtual quarter-final, with the winner of the clash securing a semi-final spot.
