SARAH AND ENGLAND TO FACE INDIA IN T20 WORLD CUP SEMI-FINALS

Sarah Glenn and her England team-mates now know their opponents in the semi-finals of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup.

The Worcestershire Women’s Rapids leg spinner and her colleagues will face India Women in Sydney on Thursday (March 5).

It is a repeat of the 2018 semi-final which England won by eight wickets before losing to Australia in the final.

The wash-out of today’s match between South Africa and West Indies ensured the Proteas finished top of England’s group with five points – one more than Heather Knight’s team.

As a result England, the Group B runners-up, will take on Group A winners India who won all four of their matches.

Glenn has played a major role in England moving to within two games of possible trophy glory.

She has competition figures of 16-1-68-6 with an economy rate of 4.25 runs per over.

England’s most recent meetings with India were in the Tri-Series in Australia ahead of the World Cup and the spoils were shared.

India won by three wickets in Canberra with England triumphing by four wickets in Melbourne.
