Overview

Hosts India came into the competition as favourites and have by and large lived up to the billing with consistent, if not very impressive performances. M S Dhoni has one man in particular to thank for putting India in the semi-final and that is Virat Kohli.

The Delhi dasher has carried India's batting on his broad shoulders, scoring 184 runs at an incredible average of 92 along with an impressive strike rate of 132. The way he guided India's chase against Pakistan and Australia was admirable.

Kohli aside, the batting has failed to fire, something which would be of concern to the team management. Openers Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma have struggled so far, and there is no bigger game than this to get back into form.

Yuvraj Singh who injured himself during India's six-wicket win over Australia has been ruled out, with Manish Pandey called in as cover. Expect Ajinkya Rahane to slot into the side in Yuvraj's absence.

West Indies on the other hand, come into this game on the back of a shock six-run loss to Afghanistan. However, prior to that they had been in good form in the competition, beating England, Sri Lanka and South Africa quite comprehensively.

In Chris Gayle they have probably the best T20 player in the world while Andre Russell, Darren Sammy and Marlon Samuels have chipped in with important contributions at various times.

The men from the Caribbean may be the underdogs, but they are capable of beating any team on their day.
