Chasing 196, India held their nerves to complete the target with four balls to spare. This victory sets up a highly anticipated rematch against England, whom India lost to in the 2022 semi-finals.
Since the inaugural tournament in 2007, India has reached the semi-finals six times (2007, 2014, 2016, 2022, 2024, 2026). They have won the trophy twice (2007 and 2024) and reached the final three times, showcasing consistent dominance in the format.
