Batting first, India got off to a flying start thanks to Samson, who looked in sublime touch from the moment he walked to the crease

On the contrary, the night belonged equally to England’s young batting sensation Jacob Bethell, who responded with a stunning counterattack during England’s chase

Batting at a strike rate of 211.5, the wicket-keeper batsman dominated the powerplay, dispatching anything loose to the fence and keeping the scoreboard ticking at a rapid pace

English middle order batsman played a fearless innings, hammering 105 runs off just 48 balls at a strike rate of 218.7

Sanju's ability to find gaps and accelerate under pressure set the platform for India’s imposing total of 253/7

Bethell’s innings was a masterclass in modern T20 batting. He unleashed a flurry of boundaries and  sixes, particularly targeting the spinners and medium pacers

Semi-Final clash at Wankhede will be remembered not only for its nail-biting finish but also for the electrifying batting displays from Samson and Bethell
