India has secured a spot in the T20 World Cup semi-finals following a dramatic five-wicket victory against the West Indies. Sanju Samson's unbeaten 97 guided India to chase a target of 196 with four balls remaining.
This marks India's third consecutive semi-final appearance. They are set to face England in Mumbai on Thursday. The first semi-final will feature South Africa against New Zealand.
The West Indies posted a formidable 195-4, with Rovman Powell and Jason Holder forging an unbroken 76-run partnership off the final 35 deliveries.
Despite a shaky start, with early wickets falling, Samson's explosive innings, featuring four sixes and twelve fours, propelled India to 199-5, achieving the highest successful run chase in the tournament to date.
