India marched into the T20 World Cup semi-finals on Monday after skipper Rohit Sharma's blistering 92 set up their 24-run victory over Australia, who are now on the brink of elimination.
The pinpoint accuracy of Jasprit Bumrah allows other bowlers in the Indian team to go for wickets even in extreme pressure situations, said pacer Arshdeep Singh. The 25-year-old left-arm pacer is among the leading wicket-takers in the T20 World Cup with 15 scalps in six games at an average of 11.86 and economy rate of 7.41 runs per over. Bumrah, on the other hand, has taken 11 wickets in the same number of games, conceding just 4.08 runs per over, a rarity in the shortest format.
It has been a dismal run for Virat Kohli in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 and it got worse for the Indian cricket team star batter as he was dismissed for a duck during the Super 8 match against Australia on Monday. Kohli miscued a shot off Josh Hazlewood and Tim David completed an easy catch to end his stay at the crease. This was the second duck for Virat in this year's competition after he was dismissed for a golden duck during the group stage match against United States. The star batter joined former pacer Ashish Nehra as the second Indian batter ever to score two ducks in a single edition of the T20 World Cup. Nehra had two ducks to his name during the 2010 edition of the T20 World Cup.
The India vs Australia T20 World Cup 2024 match will be remembered for a long time for Rohit Sharma's terrific hitting against the likes of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and others. The Indian cricket team skipper struck eight sixes and seven fours on way to score a 41-ball 92. Though Rohit Sharma went after all the bowlers, he was particularly brutal towards one - Starc. When the left-arm pacer was inducted into the XI, the general thought was that it was to counter the India captain's weakness against the left-arm pacer.
Rohit Sharma is called 'Hitman' world over. On Monday, the Indian cricket team captain showed once again why he is revered so much as he made a star-studded Australian bowling line-up look pedestrian in a T20 World Cup Super 8 match in St Lucia on Monday. Against the likes of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Rohit hit eight sixes and seven fours to score 92 off just 41 balls. At the end of his innings, Rohit's strike-rate stood at 224.39.
Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli's horrible form at the T20 World Cup 2024 continues as he was dismissed for a duck during the Super 8 match against Australia on Monday. Kohli faced just five deliveries before he completely miscued a shot off the bowling of Josh Hazlewood and the catch was completely comfortably by Tim David at wide mid-on. Kohli has not performed well in the competition after he was chosen as Rohit Sharma's opening partner with just 66 runs in 6 matches. This was his fourth single-digit score of this year's competition and social media was abuzz following his dismissal.

Afghanistan vs Australia LIVE Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: Australia take on Afghanistan in their second Super 8 clash, knowing that a win will almost certainly be enough to seal qualification to the semi-finals of the 2024 T20 World Cup. The 2023 ODI World Cup champions are checking all the right boxes heading into the business end of the tournament. Afghanistan, on the other hand, need to recreate some of the magic they produced during the group stage, as a loss will send them crashing out of the 2024 T20 World Cup.
