T20 WC: Rohit Sharma shines as India beat Australia to enter semis
TOI Sports Desk
Rohit Sharma led from the front with a blistering 92 as India beat Australia by 24 runs in St. Lucia on Monday to seal their place in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup. The India captain's dashing innings -- he faced just 41 balls, including seven fours and eight sixes -- was the cornerstone of a total of 205-5 made after he lost the toss. Australia eventually finished their reply on 181-7, with left-arm quick Arshdeep Singh taking 3-37. India will now face defending champions England in Thursday's semi-final in Guyana.
