India make 170 runs from their 20 overs in their World Cup encounter against England.

Stuart Broad's England must score 171 runs if they are to claim the victory from their T20 World Cup encounter with India this afternoon.

The England bowling attack struggled to make inroads on the Indian batting lineup during the opening innings, with Yusuf Pathan the only batsman going cheaply for eight runs.

Gautam Gambhir made 45 before he fell to Steven Finn, while Virat Kohli contributed 40 to his side's total.

The standout performer though was Rohit Sharma, who struck an unbeaten 55 runs from just 33 balls.

Both of these sides have qualified for the next round as a result of victories over Afghanistan earlier in the competition.
