The 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup will conclude this weekend, with England still in contention to defend their title.
Jos Buttler‘s side won this tournament in 2022 and face India in the semi-finals as they look to get to another showpiece match.
However, India are a formidable opponent and haven’t lost a game across the World Cup.
The winner of the second semi-final will face South Africa for glory.
The Proteas thrashed Afghanistan in the first semi, bowling them out for 56 before cruising to a nine-wicket win.

T20 World Cup final: What has been said?
England white-ball coach Matthew Mott wants to see his side go out and attack India.
He said: “We haven’t quite clicked as a whole unit yet.
“Bits and pieces have worked at different times but our ‘A-game’ is certainly enough to match with India.
“We’ve had to play some ugly cricket at times.
“But from here on in it’s time to be the frontrunners.
“It’s time to more or less throw the first punch at India and then try to get our nose in front and never give it back.”
