New Delhi. Whoever won or lost in the first semi-final of the T20 World Cup, everyone called the pitch poor. Sanjay Manjrekar even said that the ICC should apologize to cricket lovers for this poor pitch. The first semi-final was played between South Africa and Trinidad. Now the second semi-final is to be played between India and England in Guyana. Let us know whether the pitch here will help the batsmen or the bowlers.
The second semi-final of the T20 World Cup is to be played between India and England from 8 pm on Thursday. If you are disappointed with the pitch of the match played between South Africa and Afghanistan, then you can now breathe a sigh of relief. The pitch on which the match is to be played between India and England can be called a sporting wicket.
According to a report by Cricinfo, the pitch has special support for spinners. But not so much that the batsmen are unable to score runs. It is believed that decent runs will be scored on the Guyana pitch and the team with better spinners may have the upper hand. Everyone knows that Kuldeep Yadav has performed brilliantly in this tournament. He will also get the support of Akshar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja. India also has batsmen who play spin well. In such a situation, India is considered to have an upper hand against England.
England has a great spinner in the form of Adil Rashid. Moeen Ali and Livingstone are there to assist Adil Rashid in the English team. This means that the English team can also play with three spinners. However, the English attack does not stand in front of the Indian spin attack. Secondly, the Indian team has many excellent batsmen who play spin. The English team does not stand in front of India in this matter as well. That is why it is believed that the pitch of Guyana can prove to be beneficial for the Indian team.
