India showed amazing batting skills before this T20 World Cup began. Their batters hit the ball with great power and confidence. However, things changed when the tournament started. South Africa defeated India badly in the opening Super 8 battle. Later, India beat Zimbabwe very easily in their next game.
West Indies also lost to South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8 stage. This makes today at Eden Gardens almost like a final. The team that wins this contest will go to the semifinals. Both teams need this victory badly to continue in the tournament.
