India’s cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, won a big match against England in the T20 World Cup. They beat England by 68 runs in Guyana on Thursday, which means India will play in the final game. This is the second time in less than a year that India has reached the final of a big cricket tournament.
After the match, many people on social media made funny jokes and comments about India’s win. One group called the Barmy Army had posted a picture of Virat Kohli when he got out early in the game. Later, another group called the Bharat Army replied to this post, making fun of England’s loss.
Some fans praised India’s captain, Rohit Sharma. They said he has done well even though people sometimes criticized him. Others were excited about the final match, where India will play against South Africa. Both teams haven’t lost any games in this tournament yet.
In the match against England, India batted first because England won the coin toss and chose to bowl. India had a tough start, losing two important players, Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant, early in the game. But then Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma played well together, scoring 73 runs as a team.
After Rohit and Suryakumar got out, Hardik Pandya and other players helped India score more than 170 runs in total. This was a good score for India to defend.
When England started batting, they had big problems. They lost three of their best players – Jos Buttler, Phil Salt, and Jonny Bairstow – very quickly. India’s spin bowlers, especially Kuldeep Yadav, made it very hard for England to score runs. In the end, England could only score 103 runs, and all their players got out.
India’s bowlers all did a great job. Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel each got three players out, while Jasprit Bumrah got two players out. This teamwork in bowling helped India win easily.
This win means India is playing very well in the tournament. They haven’t lost any games yet, just like South Africa. The final match between these two strong teams should be very exciting for cricket fans.
The T20 World Cup final will be played on June 29. Many people are looking forward to seeing if India can win the whole tournament. This match was a big step for India, showing they are one of the best teams in the competition.
