What was initially perceived as a mere formality before the semi-finals has evolved into one of the most exhilarating showdowns between two cricket powerhouses, Australia and India. This anticipation is heightened, especially after Afghanistan’s stunning 21-run victory over Australia, courtesy of a brilliantly spirited performance by the Afghan unit.

On one hand, India who are entering the contest on the back of consecutive victories against Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Both matches were won while defending targets, with the Indians securing triumphs by nearly identical margins of 47 and 50 runs, respectively.
