Meanwhile, after the recently-concluded Super 12 game against Zimbabwe, Rohit said “The key for us will be to adjust to the conditions as quickly as possible. We have played a game there recently but England will be a good challenge for us. They have been playing some good cricket. Two teams going at each other, it will be a great contest. We do not want to forget what has got us here, we just need to keep sticking to that and understand what each individual needs to do.”

India is playing the second semis as they finished first in the Group Two points table during the Super 12. If they didn’t do so, they would have played against New Zealand in the first semis in Sydney on November 9.
