Defending champions India face West Indies at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on March 1, 2026, in a match that decides the final semifinal spot in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup. A victory for either side secures progression, while a no-result would favor West Indies on net run rate. The contest pits two high-scoring teams against each other under clear weather conditions.
India secured a 72-run victory over Zimbabwe in their Super 8s match at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on February 26, 2026, posting 256 for 4 after being invited to bat first. Zimbabwe managed 184 for 6 in response, with Brian Bennett unbeaten on 97. The win keeps India's semifinal hopes alive, but they must defeat West Indies next to qualify.
