India Overwhelms England to Advance to T20 World Cup Final
India delivered a crushing blow to England's T20 World Cup title defense, defeating them by 68 runs in a one-sided semi-final in Guyana.
The Indian team, led by Rohit Sharma (57) and Suryakumar Yadav (47), posted a competitive total of 171-7 on a challenging pitch.
England's batting order crumbled under the pressure, with only Harry Brook (25) offering some resistance as they were dismissed for 103 in 16.4 overs.

The Indian bowlers, particularly Kuldeep Yadav (3-19) and Axar Patel (3-23), were relentless in their pursuit of victory.
The match was delayed by rain and interrupted again during India's innings, but India's performance was far superior on the day.
England's defeat brings their title defense to an end, while India looks forward to their first T20 World Cup final since 2013. The final, which will be played against South Africa, promises to be an exciting contest between the tournament's two unbeaten sides.
