India National Cricket Team vs England Cricket Team Match: A brilliant fielding effort by Axar Patel and Shivam Dube removed dangerous batter Will Jacks during the semifinal of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 between India national cricket team and England national cricket team at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday, March 5, 2026.
Chasing 254, England were making progress when Jacks sliced a full toss from Arshdeep Singh toward deep point. The ball appeared headed for the boundary, but Patel sprinted across the line and produced a stunning catch near the rope. Losing his balance, he remained alert and flicked the ball back toward Dube, who completed the dismissal.
Jacks was out for 35 off 20 balls, hitting four boundaries and two sixes at a strike rate of 175. The wicket provided India with a crucial breakthrough as England attempted to chase a massive target.
Patel played a significant role in the field throughout the match. Earlier, he took a remarkable catch to dismiss England captain Harry Brook and also claimed a wicket with the ball, bowling Tom Banton in the eighth over. His all-round contribution under pressure helped India maintain control in the high-stakes contest.
