Here is India’s record in the semi-finals of T20 World Cups

5. Versus Australia, 2007 (Won)

It was a battle of the heavyweights between India and Australia in the semifinal of the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup. India were coming off after a disappointment of the 2007 ODI World Cup, the same tournament Aussies had won. This particular match is still remembered for the historic innings by Yuvraj Singh. The stylish left-hander stunned Aussies with a breathtaking knock of 70 off just 30 balls, which included five fours and as many sixes.

India, the eventual champions, scored 188 runs, setting up the fighting total. In response, the Kangaroos only managed to score 173 in their 20 overs, losing the contest by 15 runs. Sreesanth’s wickets of Matthew Hayden and Adam Gilchrist are still fresh in fans’ minds.
