T20 World Cup Semi-Finals: How to live stream England, India, South Africa and Afghanistan

England face India and South Africa face Afghanistan for a place in the T20 World Cup Semi-Finals over the weekend - here's dates, venues and how to watch the games.

The 2024 T20 World Cup is down to the final four with England against India and South Africa against Afghanistan in the semi-finals.

The matches are scheduled to take place on 27 June UK time, in Trinidad and Guyana - but aren't without controversy with only one of the fixtures featuring a reserve day should the weather disrupt proceedings.

South Africa and Afghanistan are the beneficiaries of ICC scheduling in that respect but if England against India is washed out, India will progress to the Final by finishing top of their Super 8s group.

What's the controversy?

Prior to the start of the competition, it was confirmed India would play in the second semi-final - the one without the reserve day - in Guyana to appeal to an Indian television audience, something pundit and former England coach David 'Bumble' Lloyd said was "Just manipulating the tournament for the benefit of a few."

Speaking on the TalkSport YouTube Channel he said: "It must be some commercial value that overrides the competition itself. Who devises it all? Don’t tell me the ICC, who?"
