Match Preview
IND vs ENG: The second semi-final of the ICC Mens T20 World Cup 2022 will be played at Adelaide Oval on Thursday, 10th November 2022. Group 2 table toppers, India will clash with England in this high-pressure knockout game.
The men in blue have redeemed themselves after back-to-back shocking exits from last year’s T20 World Cup and the Asia Cup. Rohit Sharma and co. have proved themselves in these tough conditions. Virat Kohli regained his lost form at the right time. Moreover, the rise of Suryakumar Yadav this year has added more sparkle to the batting lineup. The only weak link remains the skipper. But Rohit is a big match player, and the management will back him fully.
England, on the other hand, is a strong batting side. The skipper has regained his form, and Ben Stokes is doing his part as well. Mark Wood and Sam Curran are leading the bowling attack from the front. They lost to New Zealand in the semi-finals last year and would love to cross the finish line this time around. The team is the favorite for the title. And against a side like India, England would have to bring their A-game out on the field.
