India Vs England T20 World Cup: Big Clash Before The Finals | Will Virat Kohli Shine? | Pitch Battle

All through the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, India have fought hard to keep a monkey off their back: the heartbreaking loss against Australia in the 50-over ICC Cricket World Cup final in November. Now, they have to deal with another one: avenging the 2022 T20 World Cup semifinal loss at England’s hands in Australia. And it wasn’t just any loss, it was a 10-wicket hammering in which the eventual champions blew away a team dotted with big-name IPL players. But India’s captain Rohit Sharma refused to be drawn into any flashbacks or plans of plotting revenge when his side takes on England in the second semifinal in Guyana on Thursday. Severe weather warnings have been issued in the Guyanese capital as heavy showers are forecast. Rain could interrupt parts of the game and could even lead to a complete washout. Experts discuss what is in store in today’s big clash in the new episode of Pitch Battle. #IndiaVsEngland #T20WorldCup #CricketClash #ViratKohli #PitchBattle #CricketFever #TeamIndia #EnglandCricket #SportsShowdown #BigMatch #RoadToFinals #CricketFans #ExcitingTimes #T20Action #SportsHighlight ~PR.152~ED.102~
