The cricket teams of India and England will face each other in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup in Adelaide on November 10. After 6 years, Blue Army has reached the semi-finals of this tournament. Earlier in 2016, Team India played the last-4 match.
In this story, we will know what can be the strategy of Team India against England. Along with this, we will also see the strength and weaknesses of the Indian team.
Now know what is the strength of Team India...
Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli have proved to be the biggest strength of Team India in this World Cup. Surya's three half-centuries and 360-degree shots were not only the subject of discussion but also played an important role in India's victory.
In the India-Pakistan and India-Bangladesh match, Surya's bat did not work much, but against South Africa, he scored 68 runs in 40 balls. He remained unbeaten in Zimbabwe and the Netherlands. Scored 51 off 25 balls against Netherlands and 61 off 25 balls against Zimbabwe. Similar big innings will be expected from this player in the semi-finals as well.
Kohli is in amazing form
Till about a month ago, Virat Kohli was battling with poor form. He scored a century against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup and after that, the picture changed. In the first match of the Super-12 in the T20 World Cup, Virat played an unbeaten and historic innings of 82 runs in 53 balls against Pakistan.
In the 19th over, Kohli's two sixes off Haris Rauf turned the match upside down. In the match against the Netherlands, Virat scored 62 runs in 44 balls and silenced the critics. Kohli remained unbeaten on a 44-ball 64 against Bangladesh and put the team in a strong position. He was the player of the match in this match. In such a situation, Virat will also be responsible for scoring runs against England.
Arshdeep-Mohammed Shami bowling brilliantly
Team India's fast bowling has been amazing in this World Cup. Along with Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar has also bowled brilliantly in the tournament. Bhuvi has taken 4 wickets in 5 matches. During this, his economy was less than 6.
Arshdeep Singh has done wonders. Against Pakistan, he made Babar Azam walk for 0. After this, Mohammad Rizwan and Asif Ali were also sent to the pavilion. Took 3 wickets for 32 runs in 4 overs. India won this match.
Arshdeep's stellar performance against the Netherlands also continued. He gave the team 2 wickets. Although Team India lost its next match to South Africa, here also Arshdeep dismissed two important batsmen of the opposition team Quinton de Kock and Riley Russo.
In the next match against Bangladesh also Arshdeep did wonders and took 2 wickets. He took the very important wicket of Shakib-al-Hasan. After this, the position of Bangladesh was weakened. In this innings of 16 overs, Arshdeep did this feat in the 12th over.
Mohammed Shami has also done a great performance
Mohammed Shami has not taken many wickets in the T20 World Cup, but in all the overs he did, the batsmen were struggling to score runs. Whenever the Indian captain needed a wicket, he took the wicket of the opposition team.
In such a situation, his overs proved to be decisive in the match. Especially in the India-Pakistan match, Shami picked up the wicket of Iftikhar Ahmed when the team needed it the most. After this wicket, the game started appearing on India's court. Shami's consistency has benefited India a lot in this T20 World Cup.
What could be India's weak link in the semi-final match?
Team India's three weaknesses have come out in the T20 World Cup. These are the opening pair, spin bowling, and poor fielding.
Both the openers could not share a 50-run partnership even once. Rohit Sharma has scored 4, 53, 15, 2, and 15 in this World Cup. KL Rahul was a flop in the opening match, but after that, he scored fifty against Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. Now he has to prove himself in front of big teams. In such a situation, he will have a big chance against England.
Rohit Sharma was also injured during practice on Tuesday, but now he is fully fit. Against England, Rohit will have to make up his lost form at any cost. For this, he is also practicing a lot.
spinners have to do well
The spin bowling of the Indian team has been average in this World Cup. Axar Patel did not get a single wicket against Pakistan and Bangladesh. He gave away 40 runs against Zimbabwe. Ashwin too has not been able to do anything special in this World Cup. He did not get a single wicket against Pakistan and Bangladesh. He gave 43 runs in 4 overs against South Africa.
In such a situation, Yuzvendra Chahal can be given a chance in his place. Chahal has a great record against England. He has played 11 matches and has taken 16 wickets. His best performance of his T20 career, 6 wickets for 25 runs, has also come against England.
At the same time, Ashwin has played 5 T20 matches against England and he has got only one wicket.
