NEW DELHI: Mohammed Shami claimed 4 wickets, while Jasprit Bumrah bagged three as India hammered England by 100 runs on Sunday in a low-scoring affair to stay unbeaten in the World Cup and all but push the defending champions out of the semi-final race. With this win, Rohit Sharma and Co have jumped to the top of the points table. They have an NRR of +1.405.
Chasing a tricky 230 for victory at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, England collapsed to 129 all out in 34.5 overs to suffer their fifth defeat in six matches.
India have six wins in as many games and are virtually assured of a semi-final place.
