India vs England, 2nd Semi-Final, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Shivam Dube to Jacob Bethell, out Jacob Bethell Run Out!! 1 run completed. That should be the game for India. The crowd goes wild and Bethell buries his face into the ground in agony. He has been run out by yards. Close to the blockhole, can't get under it as he drills it down the ground. India have got their field placement right with a very straight long-off. Hardik it is. Fields it cleanly and fires in a flat throw at the keeper's end. One bounce to Samson who gathers safely and breaks the stumps. The two was never on but Bethell had no choice. Even a desperate dive isn't enough. Jacob Bethell run out (Hardik Pandya/Sanju Samson) 105(48) [4s-8 6s-7]
