India and England will meet again in a T20 World Cup semi-final when they face off in the second last-four clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It is the third straight edition in which the two teams have squared off at this stage, after also meeting in the semi-finals in 2022 and 2024.Their recent history adds context to the contest. In 2022, England ended India’s campaign in the semi-final and went on to defeat Pakistan in the final to win the title. In 2024, India reversed that result under Rohit Sharma, beating England in the semi-final before defeating South Africa in the final in Barbados to lift the trophy.
In both those editions, the team that won the India-England semi-final went on to become world champion, adding significance to Thursday’s match.England have played six T20 Internationals at the Wankhede Stadium, winning three and losing three. India have played seven T20Is at the venue and won five. India have not lost a T20I there since December 2017. Their two defeats in Mumbai came against West Indies in 2016 and against England in 2012. The two sides have met twice in T20Is at the Wankhede, with one win each.Overall, India and England have faced each other five times in the T20 World Cup. India have won three of those matches, while England have won two, reflecting a close contest between the teams in the tournament.One of the most remembered meetings came in the inaugural 2007 edition. During the group-stage match, Yuvraj Singh hit Stuart Broad for six sixes in one over after an exchange with Andrew Flintoff. It was the first time a batter hit six sixes in an over in T20 Internationals and remains one of the key moments in the tournament’s history.
