England's defence of the T20 World Cup is over after they slumped to a 68-run thrashing by a superb India in the semi-final in Guyana.
Buttler's side were also guilty of allowing India to get to a score above par, although that was largely down to the excellence of Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav. England will fly home on Friday and are next in action in a three-match Test series against West Indies, starting on 10 July.England’s defence of the title they won in Melbourne in 2022 began with a struggle, kicked into life in the middle, but ends with a miserable defeat.
The match was delayed by 75 minutes because of rain and interrupted again during India’s innings by another shower but, on this basis, the only thing unfair would have been Rohit's side failing to win given the gulf between the two teams. Salt was tied down in his eight balls before he was bowled trying to slog Jasprit Bumrah down the ground.
Rohit rode his luck early as he looked to be aggressive, but played the match-winning partnership with Suryakumar, after Rishabh Pant was caught at mid-wicket off Sam Curran.
