India Reach T20 World Cup Semi-Finals for 6th Time

India secured their place in the T20 World Cup semi-finals with a five-wicket win over the West Indies, marking their sixth semi-final appearance in the tournament's history.

Chasing 196 at Eden Gardens, India held their nerves to finish the chase with four balls to spare. This victory against the West Indies extends their consistent run, placing them in the last four for the sixth time since 2007.

With Suryakumar Yadav at the helm, India now faces a highly anticipated rematch against England in the semis. The team shares the record for the most semi-final appearances (six) with Pakistan and England, having won the trophy twice (2007 and 2024).
