Shades of Rohit Sharma there, standing tall. It was outside off so not a typical place to play a pull shot from.
Stand and deliver stuff from Sanju Samson.
Image source, Getty ImagesJofra Archer bowls short this time - a weakness for Sanju Samson.
But Samson majestically swivels to plant it over the rope through fine leg.
It's the first six of the India innings and Samson has picked up from where he left off against West Indies.
Stand and deliver from Sanju Samson!
After a swing and miss off the second ball, the India opener open his account as he lifts Jofra Archer over down the ground for a boundary.
The start of this game brings one of the big match-ups of this T20 World Cup semi-final.
India wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson hit a career-defining 97 not out against West Indies last time around.
But Jofra Archer, who has bowled 66 dots from 114 balls during the powerplay for England this tournament, has dismissed the India opener three times in five T20 internationals.
Who will have the laugh this time?

Since the start of 2024, honours are almost even at the Wankhede Stadium in night games, with teams fielding first winning eight of the 17 (47%) matches played. England will be hoping to restrict India to less than 205, which is the average winning first-innings score at the Wankhede.
India's left-right opening combination of Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson walk out.
Jofra Archer has the ball in his hand to open England's bowling attack.
We are all set for this do-or-die clash!

Lots of talk about how big a part the toss will play - and how big an advantage it is to be chasing. I'm no dew expert but I can tell you it has been very hot in Mumbai today.
Remember England were chasing here against West Indies and lost.
Both teams are out in the middle for the national anthems and the Mumbai crowd is up on their feet to welcome them to the grass.
A cracking atmosphere building ahead of this semi‑final and you can feel the tension in the air already.
Image source, Getty ImagesIndia and England faced each other at the Wankhede Stadium last in February 2025.
In what was the final game of a five-match T20I series, India amassed 247-9 batting first, riding on Abhishek Sharma's 54-ball 135.
The hosts then bundled out England for a paltry 97 to secure a 150-run victory.
Harry Brook's England will be desperate to avoid such a scenario this time around.

Could the first 15 minutes of this match decide the contest? When England and India met here last year, opener Abhishek Sharma scored 135 from 54 balls.
Jofra Archer was hit for 55 in his four overs and Jamie Overton 48 from three.
India had 80 on the board after only five overs that day.

It does not get better than playing in front of a crowd in Mumbai however - how will they handle the pressure?

This is India's to lose. England need Butler/Salt to fire today or they could be struggling. India were favourites coming into the tournament, they remain so.

There's only one team's shirts on sale at the Wankhede tonight. The India supporters have come out decked in blue as ever.
I have spoken to a couple of England fans but not many. This will be one of the great occasions.
