MUMBAI: Mohammed Shami took the lead to lead India to the World Cup semi-finals following a commanding 302 run victory at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday, mirroring the thrilling display of Mohammed Siraj in the Asia Cup final. The pace trio has been unbeatable since Shami entered the Indian playing XI, and the batsmen once again gave way to their skill. With the opening delivery, Bumrah sent Pathum Nissanka back for a golden duck, swerving sharply, finding an edge along the way, and hitting the pads just in front of the stumps. Nissanka attempted to use a review to reverse the outcome, but the umpires' call in favour of Bumrah ended Nissanka's night.'Miyaan Magic' enthralled the entire Sri Lankan team in the subsequent over. He sent Dimuth Karunaratne for a golden duck at his first ball in the evening. Karunaratne attempted to flick the ball, but failed miserably, and became trapped in front of the stumps. The next player to fall in the same over was Sadeera Samarawickrama. He attempted to punch the ball in an attempt to release some pressure, but instead he found a thick outside edge that went straight to Shreyas Iyer. On the opening delivery of his second over, he struck again, sending captain Kusal Mendis back for a score of 1(10), rattling his stumps.The umpire hit the famous "Siu" celebration of Cristiano Ronaldo as soon as his finger touched the air. In the flash of an eye, a few overs were over as Charith Asalanka and Angelo Mathew got to work on the repairs. But the middle order fell apart as Shami entered the attack. He removed two wickets in a row in his opening over of the evening, forcing Dushan Hemantha and Charith Asalanka to return to the dugout on opposite balls. With the goal of taking more wickets and ensuring that the Men in Blue won quickly, Shami continued to be an attacking player. KK India moved one step closer to the semi-final position thanks to Rahul's superb decision behind the stumps. It appeared as though Chameera had missed the shot when he attempted to flick the ball. Rahul was the only one to seek for a review after finishing the catch. The ball passed the gloves and the DRS displayed a spike because Rohit chose to believe Rahul's gut feeling. Umpire Chris Brown was even confused by the DRS outcome. By getting beyond Mathews' protection and cutting the stump bails, Shami grabbed his fourth victim of the evening and finished with a score of 12. With the manner that Shami was bowling, another wicket was probably not far off. After four overs, Kasun Rajitha fell for 14(17), ending Shami's chase for a wicket and earning him his second five-for of the 2017 World Cup.With a stunning 302 run victory at the end of the game, Ravindra Jadeja got the last wicket. Earlier in the innings, India amassed a score of 357/8 because to action-packed efforts from Virat Kohli (88), Shreyas Iyer (82) and Shubman Gill (92). Even though Dilshan Madhushanka took five wickets, the Indian squad was still able to score a huge amount of runs.
