All of tournament favourites India’s hopes of a World T20 world cup title on home soil were shattered a little while back after the West Indies smashed the cricket mad host nation by seven wickets to reach the final of the tournament.
Lendl Simmons fired an explosive 82 off 51 balls as the Windies broke Indian hearts in the epic semi-final clash at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium with just two balls to spare and will now face England in Sunday’s final in Kolkata.
The West Indies went into the last over needing eight to win and Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni handed the ball to Virat Kohli, who earlier scored an unbeaten 89.
