India (199/5) storm into the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 with a commanding five-wicket victory over the West Indies (195/4)

[CrIc_Mystique]

Basically you are saying West Indies is a very good team just that their bowling is crap and top order is useless. Reminds me of the movie Sholay with Amitabh promoting his friend Dharmendra for Basanti !!

And the converse of that is Mohd. Azhar's typical interviews from the 90's ...

When angrez interviewers ask him how specifically he was deciding to counter xyz batsman, spinner, quickie, spin/seam/quick wicket, overhead conditions -what was the exact team strategy?

Azhar would replay : " Oh, we'll just bowl well, bat well and field well" !

Form and confidence is such a fragile thing for these sportsmen. He looked utterly out of sorts...not playing with his usual freedom and clean swing of the bat with no reservations.

Admittedly, I haven't watched much of him but I've never seen him try to play himself in.

Just one illness and a few ducks and the insane form he is has disappeared. Indian team management's fault for rushing him back when he wasn't fit. Now they've lost their trump card.

Samson khele ya Abhishek ya koi bhi jeeta India Hai , ye important hai. .

Every single player in indian team is match winner , jiska din hoga wo akela match jitwa dega.

Maybe Abhishek ka din semi ya final m ayega. .

We have full confidence on Abhishek to Play a match winning knock .. team is backing him. ..
