The International Cricket Council (ICC) and Star Sports have announced the commentators for the high-stakes semifinal clash between India and England at the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2024. The star-studded commentary panel featured iconic names like Ravi Shastri and Nasser Hussain.

Well, the grand stage is set for a thrilling showdown, as the Indian cricket team is gearing up to face the defending champions, England, in the second semifinal of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 at Guyana's Providence Stadium on Thursday, June 27.

This highly anticipated match, scheduled to start at 8:00 PM IST, promises to be a clash of titans between two cricketing powerhouses to join the party with South Africa in the summit clash to be crowned as the T20 World Cup 2024 champions on June 29 in Barbados.

Both India and England have T20 World Cup titles. Team India, under the charismatic captaincy of MS Dhoni, won the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup in 2007, while the England team is the current title holder, winning their second crown in 2022 after winning the first title in 2010.

This IND vs ENG semifinal clash is the rematch of the 2022 edition. In the 2022 T20 World Cup semifinal encounter, England delivered a stunning performance to crush the Men in Blue by 10 wickets and then defeated Pakistan in the final to win the title after more than a decade.

India's journey to reclaim T20 World Cup glory has seen them reach the final just once since their triumph in 2007, falling short against Sri Lanka in 2014. Now, under a new era and an unbeaten campaign so far, the Indian cricket team looks strong favourite to win the coveted title this time around.
