India set up a World Twenty20 final against Sri Lanka tomorrow after Virat Kohli’s unbeaten 72 secured a six-wicket victory over South Africa in the second semi-final. Captain Faf du Plessis celebrated his return with a sparkling 58 and JP Duminy made a brisk 45 not out to help South Africa to reach 172 for four.
Kohli’s innings took just 44 balls as his side reached their victory target of 173 with five balls to spare. After opener Ajinkya Rahane perished trying to accelerate, the in-form Kohli again proved why he is considered India’s batting mainstay.
