• England to face India in Thursday’s World T20 semi-final
• Antigua wicket likely to be more conducive to spin
As England gear up to face India in the semi-final of the World Twenty20 on Thursday, the captain Heather Knight believes that her side are well prepared for what is clearly their biggest challenge yet in the competition.
“The World Cup last year will stand us in great stead,” she said. “We won scrappy games which we probably shouldn’t have won. We take confidence from the fact that we’ve performed in knockout matches before, and from the fight we showed in the last game. We know we can get over the line when we do come across those really tight games.”
