After 25 days of competition, India has emerged as the dominant side, winning six of their seven matches. They will face a challenging semifinal against England, but their performance so far suggests they have the upper hand.

Key Takeaways:

• India has been the dominant team in the competition, winning six of their seven matches, with one washed out.

• India's batting is yet to click into high gear, but Rohit Sharma's hurricane knock against Australia has given them a boost.
