Samson’s Redemption & Bethell’s Heartbreak: Semi-Final Review

Fri, 06 Mar 2026
In this episode, we break down an absolute blockbuster at the Wankhede! India has marched into the T20 World Cup 2026 Final after a pulse-pounding 7-run victory over England. It was a game of "what ifs" and "could have beens" as 499 runs were scored in a single night—a record for a Men’s T20 World Cup match.



We deep-dive into Sanju Samson’s redemption arc. After being dropped on 15, Samson made England pay with a blistering 89 off 42 balls, proving exactly why he belongs on the biggest stage. His masterclass propelled India to a mammoth 253/7, the highest score in a T20WC knockout.



But the story didn't end there. England’s 22-year-old sensation Jacob Bethell nearly pulled off the impossible, smashing a legendary 105 off 48 balls. We analyze his heartbreaking run-out in the final over and how Jasprit Bumrah’s death-bowling masterclass (conceding just 6 runs in the 18th over) saved the day for the Men in Blue.

In this episode, we break down a night of pure theatre at Eden Gardens as Sanju Samson played a knock for the ages to send India into the T20 World Cup 2026 semi-finals. Chasing a daunting 196 in what was effectively a virtual quarter-final against the West Indies on 1 March, Samson silenced the critics with a breathtaking 97 off just 50 balls*.

We dive deep into the tactical mastery of Samson’s innings, which featured 12 fours and 4 sixes, guiding India to a 5-wicket victory with 4 balls to spare. We also recap a frantic final 72 hours of Super 8 action that decided the final four. From South Africa’s clinical 5-wicket win over Zimbabwe to secure the top spot in Group 1, to Pakistan’s heartbreaking exit despite a thrilling 5-run victory over Sri Lanka on 28 February—where Sahibzada Farhan’s heroic century (100 off 60) wasn't enough to overcome New Zealand’s superior net run rate.

India Are Alive and England Are Through - T20 World Cup

Fri, 27 Feb 2026
In this episode of The Cricket Podcast, we dive into the high-stakes drama of the T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8s, where the semi-final picture is finally becoming clear.



England have become the first team to officially qualify for the knockouts, completing a remarkable turnaround after a shaky start to the tournament. We break down Harry Brook’s sensational match-winning century against Pakistan that punched their ticket to the semi-finals. With their place secured, we ask: is this the most balanced England T20 side we’ve seen in years?



Meanwhile, India have kept their World Cup dreams alive with a dominant 72-run victory over Zimbabwe in Chennai. After a bruising loss to South Africa, the Men in Blue found their spark through an Abhishek Sharma masterclass and a clinical bowling performance. We look ahead to Sunday’s "virtual quarter-final" at Eden Gardens, where India must defeat the West Indies to join the Proteas in the last four.
