England could still reach the semi-finals of the ICC World Twenty20. It’s almost worth repeating, so implausible does it sound. After beating the defending champions, India, at a packed Lord’s on Sunday, a straight play-off between England and West Indies beckons south of the Thames, the winner of which will be confirmed semi-finalists. The defeat to the Dutch suddenly seems an awfully long time ago.

The winner of this match goes to the semis, plain and simple. Its the quarter finals!

England (probable) 1 Ravi Bopara, 2 Luke Wright, 3 Kevin Pietersen, 4 Owais Shah, Paul Collingwood (capt), 6 Dimitri Mascarenhas, 7 James Foster (wk), 8 Graeme Swann, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 Ryan Sidebottom, 11 James Anderson.
