After losing Weseley Madhevere first ball, Zimbabwe couldn't get going.

Pakistan will play New Zealand in the first semi- final.

The men are at the T20 World Cup.

New Zealand and Pakistan are playing on Wednesday, November 9th.

India vs England will be played on Thursday, 10 November.

India was in danger of posting a below-par score after slipping from 87-1 to 101-5.

For the second game in a row, Rahul was dismissed after reaching his half century.

Suryakumar took advantage of some questionable field settings from Zimbabwe to continually pepper the leg side boundary with flicks and ramps as India took 79 runs from the final five overs.

Zimbabwe's top order was never able to get going against a high-quality India bowling attack as the chase was tame.

Ryan Burl played nicely, hitting sweeps on both sides of the ground, in his 35 off 22 balls, as did Sikandar Raza for his 34,

Zimbabwe's tail fell apart quickly after Burl fell as they were defeated by a large margin.

They will have to qualify for the next T20 World Cup in West Indies and the United States because they finished bottom of the group.
