India vs. New Zealand
New Zealand entered the T20 World Cup final after dominating South Africa in their semifinal at Eden Gardens by crushing them by nine wickets, thanks to Marco Jansen’s unbeaten 55 and Finn Allen and Tim Seifert’s 117-run opening stand, never bothering India’s bowlers after that point.

India vs. Pakistan
Pakistan and India share a difficult, often-hostile relationship rooted in many events and histories, leading to cricket matches between them often being politicized – for instance General Zia-ul-Haq and Pervez Musharaff both used cricket diplomacy as a tactic against Indian support for Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and Kargil respectively. Since then, however, cricket games between them are typically held in neutral venues like United Arab Emirates where there is an extensive South Asian expat community that draws crowds.
Due to an ongoing political disagreement between Pakistan and India, this match will be more contentious than most. Pakistan’s government has threatened to boycott it, which would have significant financial ramifications for both parties and cricket in general. JioStar Media rights deal provides for three billion Indian media rights deals based on each tournament’s opposing country – so any boycott would cost Jio a significant rebate from an event worth about $500m for which Pakistan played.
Sources have told The Guardian that intensive negotiations between Imran Khwaja, deputy chairman of the International Cricket Council, and Mubashir Usmani of UAE Cricket Board Mubashir Usmani will likely aim to convince Pakistan to change their minds regarding a boycott, since such action could put at risk an entire World Cup tournament.
India and Pakistan will meet for their inaugural Test match at Edgbaston stadium since 1968 on February 15th. Although India have struggled at this venue over the years, hopes are high as Rishabh Pant looks set to become the first wicketkeeper-batsman ever to score three centuries while Jasprit Bumrah nears Wasim Akram’s record of 50 or more Test wickets claimed.
Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli announced on Thursday that in an unprecedented show of good will and potential reconciliation, his side would exchange shaken hands before their match with Pakistani team members on Wednesday night. This act marks an important step toward breaking down barriers between both teams and could prove fruitful over time.
India vs. West Indies
After suffering an embarrassing defeat at the hands of South Africa, India have been handed a lifeline by West Indies in their do-or-die Super 8s matchup in Kolkata’s iconic Eden Gardens. Winning this match guarantees their place in the semi-finals so both teams should give it everything they have in order to claim victory and advance further in this competition.
India and West Indies will meet on a pitch that has produced two 200+ totals during this tournament, setting the stage for another high-scoring encounter at Eden Gardens. India are hoping to maintain their unbeaten record here while West Indies seek revenge after suffering five consecutive losses against India this format.
India won the toss and elected to bat, starting strong with openers Shiv Thakor and Virat Kohli sharing an opening 52-run stand before their innings collapsed into chaos.
India were brought down to a late finish, with Shubman Gill scoring an outstanding century on his captaincy debut and Rishabh Pant coming close to becoming only the second Indian wicketkeeper with 3000 Test runs.
England had suffered an early setback when Roston Chase fell victim to Jasprit Bumrah’s sharp catch, yet Jason Holder and Shai Hope managed to build upon it with an innings-rebuilding 75-run partnership; Holder also became the first batsman in T20Is to hit 150 sixes!
Overall, the match ended in a tie at 194/3 with both teams progressing to the last four. India are favourites to reach the semifinals while England remain longshots for reaching the final.
West Indies and Zimbabwe cricket teams have both become victims of travel chaos caused by ongoing Middle Eastern conflicts, hoping that an agreement can be made so they can resume their journey home as quickly as possible.

Both will now hope a solution is quickly reached in order for them to get home.
