After winning in the semi-finals, Suryakumar Yadav said – I was very nervous.

After winning the decisive match, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav said, ‘I was very nervous. If someone had checked my heart rate, it would have been known. It is natural to feel pressure and nervous while playing for the title in India, but the boys are also excited for it. Team India will face New Zealand for the title on March 8.

England team gave a good challenge – Suryakumar Yadav

The English team batted boldly to chase the huge target of 254 runs given by India. The England team continued the fight till the last ball. The Indian captain said, ‘The England team was competitive throughout the match and they gave a good challenge in the run chase too, but the way Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and the rest of the bowlers turned the match back towards us, it was incredible. This was really a special bowling performance. Captain Surya also gave credit for the victory to the fielding coach and said, ‘We have to give some credit to our fielding coach T Dilip also. As soon as we saw that Adil Rashid was bowling from one end, we felt that Shivam Dubey would be the right match-up against him.

Jacob Bethell Surpasses Finn Allen: England had to face defeat against India in the second semi-final match played on Thursday, March 5 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, but England batsman Jacob Bethel won the hearts of cricket fans with his excellent century. 22-year-old Jacob Bethel, who came to bat at number four, scored his first century of T20 International career amidst the continuous falling of wickets. Bethel completed his century in just 45 balls. This is the second fastest century in T20 World Cup history. Bethel left behind Chris Gayle’s record of century scored in 47 balls. Finn Allen holds the record for scoring the fastest century in T20 World Cup history. In the same T20 World Cup, Allen scored a century in 33 balls in the first semi-final against South Africa.

Jacob Bethel defeats Finn Allen

Jacob Bethel scored 105 runs in 48 balls. This is the biggest innings of T20 World Cup knock out matches. Bethel left Finn Allen behind in this matter. Allen had played an inning of 100 runs in 33 balls in the semi-final against South Africa. Bethel became the fourth batsman to score a century for England in the T20 World Cup. Before him, Alex Hales (116 not out against Sri Lanka in 2014), Jos Buttler (101 not out against Sri Lanka in 2021), and Harry Brook had played an inning of 100 runs against Pakistan in the same T20 World Cup.

England lost by 7 runs in the semi-finals

Talking about the match, Jacob Bethel fought single-handedly for England while chasing the target of 253 runs given by India. Had he got support from any other batsman, the result would have been in England’s favor. In this great match, England could score only 246 runs at the loss of 7 wickets and lost the match by 7 runs. Sanju Samson, who played a explosive inning of 89 runs for India, was declared the player of the match.

Jasprit Bumrah Last Two Overs Were The Biggest Turning Point Of The Match: In the second semi-final match of ICC T20 World Cup 2026 against England, Jasprit Bumrah once again proved why he is called the greatest bowler of today. It rained runs in the high-voltage match played between India and England at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. While bowlers like Sam Curran (13.2), Varun Chakraborty (16) and Shivam Dubey (22) were giving runs at an economy of more than 10, Bumrah brought England’s batsmen to their knees by bowling with an economy of just 8.2. It was Bumrah’s two-over spell between India’s victory and England’s defeat, which was the biggest turning point of the match.

Bumrah’s last spell was the turning point of the match

Jasprit Bumrah’s last two overs were the biggest turning point of the match. When England had to score fast runs to win, Bumrah created silence in the England camp with his magical spell. In the 16th over of England’s innings, Bumrah gave only 8 runs, while the 18th over was the most important over of the match, in which he gave only 6 runs. The surprising thing was that in these last 11 balls of Bumrah, the England batsmen could hit only 1 boundary. His accurate yorkers and slow balls kept the England batsmen completely silent.

Bumrah gave 33 runs in 4 overs

For India, Jasprit Bumrah took 1 wicket for 33 in 4 overs, which proved to be quite decisive. In this match, Hardik Pandya also bowled brilliantly and took two wickets for 38 runs in his 4 overs, while Varun Chakraborty took one wicket for 64 runs, which has become one of the most expensive spells for India in this format.

India will now face New Zealand in the final on Sunday, March 8 and will play at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad with the aim of creating history by becoming the first team to defend the T20 World title.

Aamir had earlier predicted that India would lose against West Indies and would not be able to reach the semi-finals. When his prediction proved wrong, now he has said that England will stop India in the semi-finals and Team India under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav will not be able to reach the final. Apart from this, he had called the Indian team’s star opener Abhishek Sharma a “slugger”, on which the Indian fans expressed displeasure.

Mohammad Kaif said in a video on his YouTube channel that Aamir is making such provocative statements only for publicity and India does not need to respond to such statements. He said, ‘Did Aamir really not know that India would reach the semi-finals? They also knew that the defending champions would advance, but because it would make news, they did so. We should not give them importance. We do not need to go to their level and respond.

His ball was not even falling on the stumps. I don’t need to say much about the player who got scared in front of the American team and led his team to defeat.
