India Reach T20 World Cup Semi-Finals for Record Sixth Time

India secured their place in the semi-finals of the 2026 T20 World Cup with a five-wicket win over the West Indies, marking their sixth appearance in the last four.

India have reached the semi-finals six times since 2007, including this year, and have advanced to the final three times, winning the trophy twice in 2007 and 2024.

This sets up a highly anticipated rematch against England, who defeated India in the 2022 semi-finals. Along with Pakistan, India is tied for the most consistent semi-finalists in tournament history.
