    T20 WC: 'Battle Between Archer And Samson Will Be Fascinating To Watch,' Says Wassan Ahead Of SF Clash

    By IANS News March 05, 2026 • 18:00 PM View: 229
    Having Axar Patel: Former India cricketer Atul Wassan believes India’s earlier defeat to South Africa could turn out to be a “blessing in disguise” as the team gears up for a high-stake semifinal clash against England at the Wankhede Stadium, saying the setback may have helped the side prepare better for the pressure of big matches.

    South Africa served India their only defeat by 76 runs in Ahmedabad in the Super 8s. However, they were thrashed by New Zealand in the semifinal on Wednesday and were knocked out of the tournament.

    Wassan believes the loss may actually work in India’s favour heading into the knockout stages.“The defeat against South Africa could be a blessing in disguise for Team India. Sometimes such losses prepare a team mentally for the pressure of big matches and help them come back stronger,” he told IANS.
