LIVE | IND vs ENG Live Score Today T20 World Cup 2026 2nd Semifinal Updates: Axar Patel’s Superman Effort Break Dangerous Stand; India on Top vs England at Wankhede | ENG 172/5 in 14 Overs

OUT! Will Jacks departs and India get a huge breakthrough! Arshdeep goes wide and full, forcing Jacks to reach out. He slices it towards the deep point where Axar Patel pulls off a brilliant effort — grabs it on the run, loses balance near the rope and flicks it back in. Shivam Dube completes the catch. What a moment! Surya rushes in to hug Axar as India celebrate.

SIX! England bring up 150, and the game is alive at Wankhede! Axar drops it short, and Will Jacks rocks back to hammer it over square leg. That’s gone all the way into the top tier. What a contest we have on our hands.

BOWLED! Axar Patel gets his revenge! Slows it up and Tom Banton is beaten all ends up. The left-arm spinner drifts it in from around the wicket and it sneaks through the attempted slog-sweep to crash into leg stump. Banton’s quick cameo ends on 17. Axar pumped!

SIX! Axar Patel welcomed with a big hit! Banton uses his feet beautifully, gets to the pitch and lofts it inside-out over extra cover. Didn’t try to overhit it — pure timing. England are going hard here in Mumbai, what a contest this is! ENG 95/3 in 7.3 overs vs IND (253/7) at Wankhede

FOUR! Banton finishes the over with a reverse sweep. Gets on top of the bounce and lifts it over backward point. 23 runs off the over — England keep the momentum going. 

SIX! That’s three in a row! Bethell brings out the reverse slap against the flighted delivery drifting in. Changes stance quickly, gets on top of the bounce and smashes it over backward point. England still fighting hard at Wankhede. England 64/2 in 5.4 overs vs India (253/7) at Wankhede

OUT! Hardik Pandya strikes first ball! Away-swinger and Phil Salt goes for the big slog across the line, doesn’t pick the movement. Thick outside edge flies high over cover-point, where Axar Patel backtracks and takes a safe catch. England lose Phil Salt (5) early. ENG 13/1 in 1.1 overs vs IND (253/7)

FOUR! Buttler survives and gets lucky! Arshdeep nails the inswinging yorker, but Buttler just manages to jam his bat down. Thick inside edge and it races away to the long leg boundary.

Chase underway! Phil Salt and Jos Buttler at the crease, Salt on strike. Arshdeep Singh to start the attack with a slip in place. Deep square leg and fine leg stationed outside the ring. England expected to go hard in the Powerplay — India will aim to pick early wickets.

RUN OUT! Hardik Pandya departs. Flicks a low full toss to the on-side and looks for the second, but England are sharp in the field. Jacob Bethell fires in a precise throw, and Jos Buttler does the rest, whipping off the bails at the striker’s end. End of a handy cameo from the Indian all-rounder. IND 251/7 in 19.5 overs vs ENG at Wankhede Stadium

SIX! Tilak Varma putting on a show! Third maximum of the over. Archer pulls the length back but angles it into the pads. Tilak whips it powerfully over deep backward square leg — and it sails into the crowd.  India 235/5 in 18.5 overs vs England at Wankhede

RUN OUT! Shivam Dube (43) is gone after a mix-up. Sam Curran fires in a perfect yorker at the base, Pandya initially sets off but quickly sends Dube back. Harry Brook hits the target at the bowler’s end with just one stump to aim at. Pandya immediately apologises as Dube walks back in disbelief. IND 212/5 in 17.3 overs vs ENG at Wankhede

SIX! What a shot from Sanju Samson! Archer goes with a leg-cutter on a length outside off. Samson backs away, waits for it, and smashes it over long-off. A cracking back-foot strike! India 159/2 in 12.5 overs vs England at Wankhede

Drinks break. India off to a flying start in the Powerplay while England have looked a bit sloppy. Archer has been slightly short, Overton overpitched a couple, and Curran leaked two boundaries in his first over. Samson continues from where he left off in the last game — and he’s already had a reprieve.

OUT! Abhishek Sharma is gone for 9, and Will Jacks is the man for England. Big wicket for England. Abhishek charges down for a big shot but mistimes the aerial flick. The slower off-break drifts in, catches the bottom of the bat, and Phil Salt runs in from deep midwicket to take a comfortable catch. Jacks is fired up — Abhishek falls to off-spin once again. India 20/1 in 2 overs vs England at Wankhede

FOUR! One bounce and into the fence. Abhishek Sharma shimmies down the track, moves across to the leg side, and chip-drives the in-drifter over mid-off. Elegant shot and four runs for India.

SIX! That’s huge from Sanju Samson! He’s carrying his form from the last match. Short ball outside leg, and Samson uses the pace perfectly — swivels and pulls it fine, sending it sailing over the fine-leg fence. What a start from the Indian opener! India 12/0 in 1 over vs England at Wankhede Stadium

Huge roar from the Wankhede crowd as the Indian openers walk out to the middle. Sanju Samson, the Player of the Match vs West Indies, is out there with Abhishek Sharma. For England, Jofra Archer has the new ball in hand. One slip in place. Two two-time champions, one big semifinal. Here we go!
