India kept their semi-final hopes alive with a commanding 72-run win over Zimbabwe on February 26 in Chennai. In that match, all of India’s top six batters contributed, with Abhishek Sharma scoring his maiden T20 World Cup fifty. Sanju Samson opened alongside Sharma, while Ishan Kishan moved to number three. India posted 256/4, marking the second-highest total in T20 World Cup history after Sri Lanka’s 260/6 against Kenya in 2007.
